There’s an old saying Quality, Price, or Speed, pick two. CarePac’s innovative lead-time menu gives you control over the price-to-speed ratio, based on the needs of your business. 

You’ll find just what you need with CarePac as your guide. No matter what production schedule you select all bags you order from CarePac are made to the same high quality standards. 

 

CarePac’s Innovative manufacturing lead time menu has three options. 

Express

Standard

Economy

How can CarePac offer lower pricing on slower production lead time schedules? 

Everything we make is totally custom, With longer production schedules, we have more time to optimize our production processes: material utilization, machine time, and labor and we pass those savings on to you. Here are our three production schedule options.

 

Express

Is our fastest production lead time schedule, you’re getting priority placement, are front of the line, and each step of the production lead time is pushed forward as quickly as possible. Our fastest express option is Express Digital which is 15 working days.

Standard

A great balance between price and speed, our standard schedule is comparable to many other custom pouch makers. Unlike some competitors who streamline their production scheduling by limiting customer’s choices on material, bag configuration, and sizing. We provide our customers totally customize the bag, which results in unique product packaging that makes your product stand out on on the shelf and in your customer’s hands. 

Economy

With our economy production schedule we trade speed for the lowest per-unit price we can offer. With plenty of time to plan our material utilization, and factory machine time, we can extend to you the best possible throughput and lead pricing.

Who is each manufacturing lead time best suited for?

Express

Bag Emergency

Perhaps you didn’t plan ahead, or an unforeseen opportunity (or emergency) arises. With Express you get totally custom pouches as fast as our management team can make them. 

Standard

Busy Businesses

You’re looking for that sweet spot of price to speed. Small businesses that have to balance unit cost with cash flow. Standard is best for most companies. 

Economy

 Established brands

These are established SKUs and you are forecasting and planning months in advance for pouch utilization and new product development. 

How does CarePac stack up against the lead time competition?

Great! You want to learn more about our order lead time.
As we mentioned several competitors state an amazing order lead time, if you’re willing to sacrifice customization, work with a few sizes, materials, and configurations they offer, and are only wanting digital printing manufacture. 
With CarePac we offer competitive lead times while still offering you complete pouch customization and management. Oh, and let’s not forget the Chinese, they might quote you “20 days” but they don’t tell you about the 3 months your bags sit on the boat, or every (expensive) express shipping fee. With the never-ending supply chain issues in China, your 20 days can become 10 months very fast.
