Online tool tipped to improve access for packaging customers

CORRUGATED packaging manufacturer VPK UK & Ireland has launched a new online tool that provides customers with 24/7 access to their orders.

‘My VPK’ provides access to an overview of all active products and associated designs, alongside visibility of invoices and stock.

As a result, VPK revealed that its customer service teams are having to process less data and therefore have more time to deal with their customers’ packaging needs.

Nicolas Macharis, head of international sales for VPK Group, said, “We live in a digital world and customers have increasingly higher expectations regarding sharing information about the delivery of their packaging. The My VPK portal has been developed with the need to provide instant feedback and communication.

“Our entrepreneurial style and clear focus on customer service excellence is embodied by its launch. I am delighted that we can offer access to our customers and look forward to building on the functionality it delivers as we continue to meet demands for our sustainable corrugated packaging.”

Launching initially in the UK, My VPK will roll out across other group sites in Europe later this year. The firm added that the portal will expand with additional functionalities, such as linking with the design process for packaging designs and helping to provide enhanced security across the co-creation process.
