Lawn Solutions – Case Study
Business Background
Lawn Solutions, a membership-based organisation representing accredited turf growers across Australia, manufactures a complete range of lawn care products.
The Challenge
Before automating their production line, Lawn Solutions relied on a manual packaging process. This worked for smaller orders, though it became challenging as demand from customers continued to rise and a Bunnings contract expanded their distribution from zero to 180 stores overnight.
Their first step towards automation – purchasing equipment from an overseas supplier – proved unsuccessful when the machinery had issues from day one. The equipment proved extremely unreliable, and servicing it remotely was a challenging task. Without engineering expertise in-house, the team eventually returned the equipment, losing valuable time.
Through an online search, Lawn Solutions discovered Packserv. They were impressed with the local support, technical expertise, and quick turnaround. Packserv supplied and installed equipment that hasn’t missed a beat since the moment it was installed. This is far from the headaches and frustration they had experienced with imported machinery.
The Results
- An increase in throughput of 400% with less downtime.
- The in-house manufacturing model allowed Lawn Solutions to maintain control, keep the expertise in-house, and meet the demands of major retail contracts.
- Having a local supplier meant faster installation, easier training, and responsive after-sales service.
Why It Worked?
Packserv understood the situation and requirements of Lawn Solutions and delivered reliable, high-quality, Australian-made equipment backed by local training and support. This ensured uninterrupted production, increased productivity and the ability to meet crucial deadlines.
