1 Global Packaging Solutions Driving world class supply chain solutions

2 What determines world class logistics? 2

3 World class logistics means: the lowest Total Cost of Ownership for all supply chains, both inbound and reverse, required to build a specific vehicle or part, with the lowest impact on the environment Domestic Regional Global 3

4 Finding the balance between the inbound part supply method and its packaging strategy will result in lowest TCO Inbound part supply Part value Piece price Sourcing location Transport mode Line side process Variants / Stock Packaging solution Expendable vs. Reusable Standard vs. bespoke Insource / outsource Waste removal Maintenance Reverse logistics $ 4

5 The cost of waste associated with poor packaging is huge and never budgeted in the same way as the part supply chain Shipper Receiver International Supply Chains Short Sea Shipments Airfreight Domestic Bulk JIT / JIS / inter-plant Packaging makes up approx. 2% of total car component costs- ~$260 per car* 5 *Note: This includes all types of packaging (OWP 23%, Bespoke 44% & Standard 33%) Based on mid-size car (C/D segment) with purchase price of $ Source: Cost breakdown based on Canadian Auto Workers Union report, Vyas & others
