PLASTICS WAREHOUSING SERVICES FOR MANUFACTURING AND DISTRIBUTION COMPANIES

In the plastics industry, companies grapple with the volatility of market demands and the intricate handling requirements of their products. This often leads to logistical bottlenecks and storage inefficiencies in the plastics supply chain, impacting overall business operations.

These challenges are exacerbated by the need for specialized storage conditions and the complexities of distributing products from ports to markets. Plastic production and distribution companies risk delays, increased costs, and compromised product quality without an expert in plastic products warehousing.

Benefits of Partnering With an Experienced Plastics Warehousing Services Partner:

Cummins Logistics steps in as your expert warehousing partner, specifically catering to the unique needs of the plastics industry. Our 86,000-square-foot warehousing facility in Commerce, CA, sits 20 miles from the Port of Long Beach gate and 23 miles from the Port of Los Angeles gate.

Such close proximity offers the perfect solution for efficient plastic storage and distribution. Our experience, strategic location, and dedicated customer service ensure that your plastic products warehousing is managed with precision and that your plastics supply chain responds to the needs of your customers.

Professional Storage for Plastic Materials and Products

Plastic products require climate controls to maintain integrity, and those conditions vary on the plastic being stored. For instance, PET should be stored at temperatures between 40°F and 80°F. Meanwhile, HD-PE should be stored at 40°F to 90°F to control stiffness.

Because high temperatures reduce the structural integrity of plastic, pallet stacking can become an issue in hot environments. A stack of plastic bottles that is stable at 70°F could collapse at 100°F because the bottom bottles soften under the load.

Cummins Logistics offers plastics warehousing services with climate control to ensure all of your plastics are stored properly to maintain quality.

Paired with humidity controls to prevent moisture buildup and mitigate seal damage from dryness, you get a complete solution that protects your plastics.

We also offer dust mitigation and advanced safety storage for plastic products warehousing to protect your goods from the elements and accidents.
