A new packaging system designed to
make life easier for cleaners while
reducing costs for facilities managers
has been launched by Tork
manufacturer SCA.

Tork Easy Handling is a packaging
system that is said to improve
ergonomics, boost efficiency, save
time and prevent stress injuries.

The product introduces a number
of functions that improve efficiency
and ergonomics compared with
some traditional packaging systems.

For example, new handles allow the
cleaner to carry one cardboard box
in each hand. Containers are easier
to open without the use of scissors or
knives and include features adapted
to different finger sizes. All functions
have been designed to be as intuitive
as possible so that cleaners can easily
see and understand them.

“The packaging will be of particular
interest to FM companies since
labour represents 70% of a cleaning
company’s costs,” said SCA product
and segment manager Charlotte
Branwhite.
