Clip-Lok referencer & Cases
We were looking for a creative, and of course, safe solution that can represent our loudspeaker from the packaging experience. I was recommended to work with Clip-Lok SimPak as a packaging supplier, and I am glad I was.
Overall, we are very happy with the Clip-Lok packaging system, because of its long lifespan. the extremely tight fit of the boxes (no corrosion protection needed), the easy exchangeability and the substantial cost savings.
The system has worked to our full satisfaction and we would like to highlight the following: Break even in the investment was achieved within the first year. We have boxes dating back to 1989 still in circulation. The packaging is now easier and we have gotten rid of the dangerous nailing guns. Service and maintenance are very easy with Clip-Lok. We would like to give Clip-Lok our recommendation and we have plan to expand the use of Clip-Lok in the future.
We have experienced costs for service and maintenance of the boxes of app- 2 % of the box value per trip, which lives up to our expectations. Due to the manner in which the parts are clipped together, it is very easy to replace damaged parts and replace these with good parts.
Clip-Lok is custom made and therefore always meets the exacting requirements of BAE Land Systems. Clip-Lok boxes are fully ISPM 15 compliant and can therefore be shipped to all parts of the world without restriction. We would heartily recommend Clip-Lok boxes to rother companies who need packaging. BAE look forward to many more years of succesful and mutually beneficial business with Clip-Lok.
We would like to state that we were impressed by packaging. This idea of special holes and plastic clips is something that we have never seen before and it is absolutely remarkable! No nails, no hammers, no broken wood! Only a few seconds to open it! Ability to reassemble it again. Everyone was astonished and admired the Swedish level.
The containers are used for transport of plastic - and metal components for microwave ovens from various sub-suppliers to our assembly plant. They circulate once a week and the firts containers we employed have thus circulated more than 100 times, and we have not yet had to repair one single one of them - not even the pallets.
Our factory is becoming more clean after we have changed to use Clip-Lok cases. Our head office in Japan is very pleased because there is not waste or lefovers to be destroyed and effect the environment. Up to now our Clip-Lok cases have been circulated more than 10 times and are still in use. The maintenance costs are very marginal. The important thing is our savings versus the old traditional cases which have been used only for one way.
It is of high importance that our packaging are easy to handle as well as the goods arrive safely on spot. Assembling and dismantling of Clip-Lok boxes are easy and fast and can be handled by a single person without any need for extra tool. By experience we know that the designed boxes and dunnage protect the equipment in the best way and all equipment have arrived safely in camps.
The reusable system allows us to reuse the boxes several times — the equipment goes back and forward in the same boxes. In camps the boxes can be flat packed if desired, and thereby taking a minimum of space. Alternatively the containers can be used as storage for other material.
Clip-Lok has a good understanding of our packaging needs and each assignment is handled with professionalism. The agreed delivery times for new boxes are respected and possible modifications are handled fast and quickly.

We have several thousands Clip-Lok boxes in circulation, and the boxes are used in average 10 times per year. Many of the boxes has been used 100 times or more
When the boxes are not in use, we store them outside at any time of the year, and the boxes do not fall apart and loose its value.
We reckon that our service and maintenance factor is app. 1% per use.
We are very satisfied with the system.
