Secure and Stable Sourcing
Supporting healthcare & education innovation, through packaging
C3i
Our customer provides patient engagement services that improve telemedicine effectiveness through real-time interaction and communication. One service involves deploying iPad devices to COVID-19 clinical drug trial test patients, requiring superior protection and a simple unboxing experience. We delivered a solution that perfectly aligned with the customer’s goals of creating a successful patient interaction platform.
The problem
- iPads are fragile
- Packaging must be user-friendly
The Viking solution
In these COVID therapeutic trials, the client/patient receives a specially configured iPad at the start. The devices need to be damage-free and in good working order. The Korrvu Retention Box packaging solution seals the device from moisture exposure, then, through a simple folding pattern, creates a protective enclosure from just one piece of corrugated material. The resulting packaging is:
- Lightweight
- Easy to assemble in just a few folds
- Protective
- Simple to unpackage
Notebooks for Learning
The pandemic also required schools to adapt quickly with a pivot to remote learning. But, not all schools had notebook computers to provide to all of their students. The Notebooks for Learning program aims to equip school districts with quality refurbished computers, requiring a simple and easily scalable system for mailing and protecting these devices.
The problem
- Notebooks computers are fragile
- Product size varies as laptops are refurbished
- Packaging must be user-friendly
The Viking solution
As with C3i’s deployment of iPad devices, the Korrvu Retention Box packaging solution helped protect laptop computers from moisture exposure and physical damage during shipping. Also, the simple folding process helped the customer more efficiently package laptops for shipment, saving labor costs, increasing speed, and ensuring that protected, functioning devices get to students all over North America.
- Lightweight
- Easy to assemble in just a few folds
- Protective
- Simple to unpackage
