DACHSER Fashion Logistics in detail:

Retail Box classic and small

Retail Box is a transport system developed exclusively for DACHSER. It is available in two sizes: Retail Box classic model (1,200 × 800 × 1,900 mm) and Retail Box small model (600 × 800 × 1,900 mm). The fully enclosed roller containers consist of foldable parts that are securely connected to one another and offer both a QR code and pictograms with clear instructions on how to assemble, dismantle and handle them. These features make working with the load carrier quick, intuitive and safe. The DACHSER Retail Box was specially designed for dispatching garments on hangers, but is also explicitly suited to other areas of the retail business: Your goods arrive at the point of sale smoothly and in pristine condition.
