VMI

VMI is short for vendor managed inventory, which is a part of our QRM strategy. It allows us to track your inventory when it's relevant to our manufacturing process. If you produce PCBs (printed circuit boards) for MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) machines, we would be able to track where those are on your production line and know when we have to have the packaging at your production floor.

That's how VMI works, and it's a critical part in why Nelson Container is the best package vendor for you. It helps make the whole supply chain more functional and ensures your clients won't have to wait on you to get the parts they need to continue their business.

Difference Between Corrugated Packaging and Cardboard Boxes

"Cardboard" is used to refer to any kind of flat paper packaging. Most of the time people say cardboard when they mean corrugated. Corrugated can be identified by the unique "fluting" between flat layers which gives the packaging slightly more volume while offering much more support. You're probably looking for corrugated, not cardboard.
