Innovation
In keeping up with the innovations in packing and transportation Somatrans has the facilities to assist clients in storing
garments-on-hanger .
Instead of the conventional packing of garments in flat-boxes (of corrugated cardboard) the garments are
supplied by the manufacturer on hangers and covered by a polythene bag. These garments on hangers are then
loaded into both Sea-containers (which can accomodate 12000/20000 pcs) as well as in Aircraft-containers
(which can carry up to 4000 pcs). Both types of containers are fitted with metal bars which run along the length of the
containers from which nylon ropes are hung. The ropes are "knotted" approximately 6" to 10" apart and four to six
hangers are normally suspended from these knots.
Advantages
The various advantages of GOH are as under :
- Garments transported on Hangers do not crease, hence ironing cost at destination is saved
- The containers can be moved directly into the Buyer's warehouse without intermediate handling
- Cost saving in eliminating card board packs and further wrapping
- Cost saving in the unit cost of transportation per garment
