No matter what industry you work in, most companies open corrugated boxes - whether it is to get parts, ingredients or items for stocking shelves. This task is such a basic part of all operations that the risks involved can be overlooked easily and employers could fail to consider the impact it could have on their organization. Using the right tool to open these boxes can help protect your workers from injuries and save your company money.
