Mechanization is very important for Monta; ultimately, they need to move a package through the halls as efficiently as possible. Monta founder and owner Edwin van der Ham states, “The fact is that your ecological footprint is becoming increasingly important. As a chain, we have a certain responsibility for the future of our grandchildren. The most logical way for us as a logistics company to reduce our footprint is to pack as little air as possible.”
That's why the distribution centers of Monta in Lelystad and Breda have been expanded with a CVP Impack packing machine from Sparck Technologies. The installation of these automated packaging systems makes the packing and shipping of the increasing number of online orders more sustainable and efficient.

“The first CVP Impack was acquired last year for the Lelystad location. Implementation and training were arranged within a few days. After that machine ran for two weeks, we already called to order another one for Breda. And I can reveal that we plan to roll this out to other locations as well. These machines perfectly meet our expectations.”

The choice for an automated packaging machine from Sparck was very logical for Edwin: “We primarily want to get it right the first time. I’ve known Sparck for a long time and have been informed by their experts. The technology sells itself, so the decision was easy. Moreover, the delivery time was very short. We acquired the first CVP Impack last year for the Lelystad location. Implementation and training were arranged within a few days. After that machine ran for two weeks, we already called to order another one for Breda. And I can reveal that we plan to roll this out to other locations as well. These machines perfectly meet our expectations.”
Of all the CVP Impacks Sparck has sold worldwide, none has such high production as Monta in Breda. The company operates approximately 80,000 packages per month on that specific machine. Edwin van der Ham: “When we bought this first machine from Sparck a year ago, we were promised a volume reduction of seventeen percent! That is a massive saving; seventeen percent smaller boxes mean a lot fewer vans on the road with our packages.”
