An essential device for manufacturers, this free tool from ECR UK's Retail Packaging Workgroup provides at a glance the name, material, dimensions, photograph, function and process for ten Merchandising Units (MU) formats and which retailers accept each format.
The guide will help you match formats to industry needs across the major retailers: Asda, Morrisons, Sainsbury’s, Somerfield, Tesco & Waitrose, and allows you drill down to find out more detail about each specific MU Format, including:
- Data: description, length, width, height, weight, material(s), colour, 4 way entry, pallet entry height, pallet entry width, nominal load capacity, temperature range, buy, rent
- Specific Retailer Comments:- about the MU format and compatibility with individual infrastructure
- Other Facts / Information and Available From details
The output will enable you to understand the relative effectiveness of different packaging solutions, and highlight where further development work could deliver further benefits.
The supplier / retailer lead Merchandising Units Subgroup which developed and maintains this guide includes service providers such as CHEP, DS Smith Kaysersberg, Linpac Materials Handling, Loadhog Lids, and Polymer Logistics.
