The challenge
An industrial customer was seeing transit damage and stacking failures on a 5-litre container, costing time and product down the chain. The container needed to survive a rougher journey than it was originally designed for.
What we did
- 1Re-modelled wall distribution and the handle for strength where it mattered.
- 2Drop, top-load and stacking tested against real-world transit conditions.
- 3Refined the tooling and signed off before rollout.
- 4Validated the change on the customer’s own pallets and routes.
“The new container just holds up. Damage in transit dropped off a cliff.”
The result
A re-engineered jerry can that handles stacking and transit reliably, cutting damage and waste across the supply chain. Fewer failures, less wasted product, lower cost per delivered unit.
