Highly automated shipping solution increases daily output by 73 % - MBS Logistik

BVS optimizes packaging processes and implements automated shipping solutions to optimize performance. For you too.

The MBS Logistik GmbH is a specialized service provider for fulfillment and contract logistics with a focus on tailor-made and scalable solutions. With over 25,000 m² of warehouse space, the company offers comprehensive services from goods receipt, storage and order picking to shipping - including same-day delivery and individual value-added services. With a specially developed WMS, automated processes and its own fleet of trucks, MBS Logistik ensures smooth processes and reliable deliveries. Over 4.6 million parcels shipped in 2024 are proof of the high level of expertise in e-commerce logistics.

Initial situation

MBS Logistik handled its shipping processes completely manually until the start of the project. With 22 packing tables and around 200 employees, around 22,000 parcels were packed and dispatched manually every day. In view of increasing order volumes, this solution was increasingly reaching its limits - both in terms of efficiency and scalability. The project objective was clearly defined: a scalable, largely automated shipping solution with a daily output of up to 50,000 parcels. At the same time, the manual workload was to be drastically reduced, the error rate minimized and personnel capacities optimized.

Solution

BVS Verpackungs-Systeme GmbH planned and implemented four modular, highly automated dispatch lines that were seamlessly integrated into the existing infrastructure. The solution includes

  • Automated conveyor technology, sorters and telescopic conveyors
  • Integrated weighing, measuring and labeling systems
  • Fully automatic packaging system for volume reduction
  • Intelligent control and connection to the customer's WMS system
  • Specific special solutions for manual operations (residual packaging tables)
  • Filling and padding material

During implementation, emphasis was placed not only on technical excellence, but also on minimal business interruption and close cooperation with all of the customer's specialist departments.

Result

  • Current daily output: 38,000 parcels, expandable to 50,000 parcels per day
  • Reduction of packing tables from 22 to 8
  • Drastic reduction in personnel requirements in the packing process
  • Significant reduction in errors and throughput times
  • ROI in less than 12 months

Success factors

  • Close partnership with the customer and clear target definition
  • Flexibly adaptable and scalable system architecture
  • Early process analysis and realistic planning
  • Technical expertise and experienced project management

Conclusion
With this solution, we have achieved a real milestone together with MBS Logistik: a highly automated shipping process that has not only almost doubled the daily volume, but has also created the basis for sustainable growth. We at BVS Verpackungs-Systeme GmbH are proud to have supported and implemented such a project - efficient, future-proof and customer-oriented.

Packaging - As much as necessary,
as little as possible

BVS uses the NaturePak label for products that enable ecologically sound use, reduce CO2 emissions and generate less waste, regardless of the packaging material used.

Our strategy

  • Less packaging means less waste
  • Better protection through high quality
  • Packaging materials made from recycled raw materials or equivalent proportions
  • Economical packaging systems reduce material and energy consumption
  • Ecological customer solutions regardless of material
  • Objective information about different packaging materials

Packaging made from recycled paper

Paper pays off for people and the environment in the long term. It is even better to use paper with a high recycled content. Recycled paper optimizes water and energy consumption and thus protects the environment and climate by reducing waste. Recycled paper offers a wide range of added value for all users.

  • Protects the environment and reduces CO2 emissions
  • Saves energy and water
  • Less waste through optimal recycling

Plastic packaging with recycled content

Polyethylene films are increasingly being produced with a proportion of recycled material, which - as far as technically possible - is being continuously increased. They are the most modern and safest quality packaging for all branches of industry. Due to their low density and excellent physical and mechanical properties, PE films have major advantages over paper, cardboard, metal and glass.

  • Protects the environment and reduces CO2 emissions
  • Can be recycled again and again
  • Is a lightweight material with a high protective effect
  • Significantly reduces food waste when used in the food industry
  • Generates much less waste than glass, metal or paper
