The Challenge
Global food brands' demand for recyclable mono-material packaging with freshness protection was rising, along with the need for fast, small-batch delivery, challenging this Indonesian SME in China.

Results
R&D lead time was shortened by 45%, chronic film-break and oil-stain issues were fixed, defects reduced by 31%, minimum order size cut by 83%, and monthly product launches enabled.
Key Takeaways
