What is Kitting?

One big part of our business for many companies is kitting. It's one of the best ways to improve the entire manufacturing process, saving companies time and money that they can then pass on to customers.

Understanding the Process

The basic idea of kitting is that we take the raw materials necessary to build your product, finish it out, then ship it to you. It can often be used interchangeably with assembly. In some cases, it means assembling two or more finished products into a bigger grouping to better meet  your needs as a company. Virtually any items can undergo the kitting process, and it translates into some real benefits for your company.

Realizing the Benefits

Many companies choose to use this process today, and for good reason. Take a quick look at the benefits involved.

       Fast Assembly: In bulk, kitting can be very quickly. You lower your pick/pack costs because each kit is counted as a single item, and because it's a linear operation, everything gets kitted quickly then sent to you.

      Great Packaging: Statistics indicate that 95% of all products fail, and a big part of that failure rate involves the packaging. Once your items are kitted, you can choose the ideal packaging for the entire line, and create something eye-catching customers will absolutely love.

      Reduced Space Costs: If you're working with us for the kitting, you're not going to have to have the warehouse space for each individual part, only the final product itself, and in a climate where space is at a premium, that can mean a lot to your operation.
