5 INDICATORS THAT YOU'VE SELECTED THE RIGHT FLOW
WRAPPING MACHINE SUPPLIER
I n t ro d u c t i o n
You've determined that you
require a flow wrapper.
You've done your homework
and compared dozens of
machine suppliers.
However, not all vendors
are created equal. So,
before you sign the
contract and commit your
hard-earned money, make
sure you recognize these
warning signs.
1) They Provided You With a Service Plan And After-Sales
Support.
After your machine has been delivered, installed,
and integrated, you will have easy access to service
and support. Even if your facility has qualified
technicians whom you trust with your other
equipment, you made the right choice if you chose
a supplier who offers on-site training and service
packages. They most likely also make use of
technology that enables online support and remote
problem diagnosis. Better yet!
2) They Have a Long History Of Manufacturing Packaging
Machines.
Many packaging machine suppliers are new to the
industry, which may surprise you. Longevity is more
than just a source of pride. It denotes that the supplier
has a track record of developing packaging solutions
for a variety of industries. It also implies that they own
their facilities, have long-term employees with
experience, and provide a stable of innovative
products. If this sounds like the supplier you've chosen,
make sure to ask to see everything...in person.
3) They Create And Build Their Own Machines.
If the supplier you've chosen has been around for a
while, they most likely do. However, we frequently
see competitors white labelling a machine and
calling it their own. We don't name them, but
they're easy to spot because the machines all look
the same and have different logos...in the exact
same place. Another sign that you've made the right
choice is if your supplier offers a variety of flow
wrapper models. If you're having trouble deciding
which flow wrapper to use, chances are you have a
supplier who has designed and built custom
machines for specific results.
4) You Can Have Delivery To Both Domestic And International
Locations.
If you choose a supplier who can do both, you will understand why this is so important. Clients
have asked the supplier why they only deliver to one or the other, and the answer seemed
suspect. Responses such as "we specialize in this market" or "there is simply no demand in that
market" = RED FLAG! The true answer may be that they only have the right to sell that
machine in that market because they do not manufacture it and have no control over where it
is delivered. Perhaps they are dealing with regulatory issues or lack of import/export
experience. All of this could be a symptom of a larger issue. Even if you only need your
machine delivered to one location, working with a supplier who has experience delivering
packaging machine solutions all over the world ensures it arrives safely, on time, and ready to
go.
5) You Requested a Customized Option, And The Response Was
“Sure, We Can Do That.
We can only hope that you immediately signed with
this supplier. This indicates that they have a team
of designers and engineers on-site who allow them
to constantly innovate. We're not saying that all
suppliers must meet every demand. Some options
are simply not viable. But if you ask them to run it
by their engineering or R&D teams and all you get is
silence, it means they not only don't want to help
you find an innovative solution, but they're also
probably not designing, engineering, and building
their own machines. Proactive suppliers are driven
to innovate and are inspired by what lies ahead.
So, What's Next?
So, if you feel confident that you have identified
these indicators, there is a good chance that you
have found the right flow wrapping machine
supplier for your company. These aren't the only
indicators to look for, but they are among the most
important indicators that your chosen packaging
machine supplier will deliver what you require.
We encourage you to choose which red flags you want to see and which
you don't. Make a list of questions to ask them ahead of time so you can
be sure you see your signs and red flags. Then, before you talk money,
make a list of the suppliers with whom you want to do business.
When you ask us your questions and see how we can innovate and
respond to your needs, we are confident that we will come out on top.
