Sorting: we bring colour into play
At Quickpac, sorting takes place using a process that has been registered with the European Patent Office: in the Quickpac destination depots, parcels are given a coloured sticker that ensures the right speed and almost fault-free sorting. As the sender you don't need to worry about this – you can deliver your parcels to Quickpac with labels just as you have been used to doing with your previous service providers.
And here's how it works:
|
Quickpac registers all the parcels received in the destination depots (the depots from which the deliverers start their tours).
|
|
As soon as this registration is completed, the tour planning takes place within just a few minutes. Here every parcel is allocated a tour number, and within the tour number the sequence in which delivery will take place.
|
|
Before sorting, the ID barcode of every parcel is scanned, and the label generated by a high-performance printer is attached to the parcel. The label displays two coloured areas: one for the tour?(= vehicle) and one for the delivery sequence.
|
Sorting by colours has numerous advantages from which the senders and recipients benefit – through lower prices and faster processes:
|
Much higher sorting speed than during sorting by numbers or sorting using automatic sorting equipment
|
|
Sorting requires less warehouse space
|
|
Almost fault-free sorting
|
|
No use of capital-intensive sorting equipment
