RONCO’s VendPack: Reimagining PPE for the Vending Age Vending machines offer convenience and 24/7 access to PPE, but traditional products aren't always optimized for this format. RONCO understands how PPE should be designed and packaged to ensure a seamless vending experience. That's the driving force behind our VendPack line. It's Not Just About Fitting While basic pack size reductions can make PPE fit in a machine, RONCO goes further. Here's how we ensure VendPack products excel: - The Space Race: Real estate matters inside a machine. We meticulously design VendPack packaging to be compact yet robust, maximizing the number of items each machine can hold. - Snags = Lost Time & Money: Exposed adhesives or bulky shapes are an invitation to malfunctions. VendPack eliminates snag-prone elements, ensuring smooth, reliable and efficient dispensing. - Hygiene & Organization: VendPack products are packed with the end-user in mind. Organized arrangements and protective master bags keep items dust-free and ready for use. - Sustainability Isn't Optional: We are committed to reducing our environmental footprint. VendPack extensively uses renewable materials and minimizes plastics, contributing to your company's sustainability goals. VendPack is an invitation to rethink what PPE vending can be.

Do’s and don’ts when Managing MRO and PPE through Vending: DO: 1. **Track usage**: Monitor who's using what, when, and why. It will help you control consumption, reduce waste, and forecast demand more accurately. You can also limit and control acces to remove unnecessary spend. 2. **Educate employees**: Ensure all team members know how to use the vending machine correctly and understand the importance of recorded usage. 3. **Consistently restock**: Prevent equipment downtime by keeping your vending machines well-stocked. Use inventory data to predict when resupply is needed. Having your supplier do the replenishment can save you a lot of resources and revenue. 4. **Add more products with repetitive usage**: you might be surprised on the range of categories and type of supplies which can be put in a Vending. Easy to start with PPE, but hand tools, lubricants, adhesives, cutting tools, abrasives, some high usage office supplies can also be on the list. I saw even lightbulbs in the machines, so, as long as you have products you use often, they can be well handled through vending. DON'T: 1. **Neglect maintenance**: Regularly check your vending machines for any issues. A faulty machine can disrupt access to crucial supplies. It’s preferable to have your supplier do it. 2. **Overstock**: While it's essential to have stock availability, overstocking can lead to wasted resources. Aim for a balance based on usage data. With vending you have accurate spend data, so it should be easy to optimise spend accordingly. 3. **Ignore feedback**: Employees can provide valuable input on what works and what doesn't. Listen to their feedback and make changes accordingly. Done right, Vending can be a powerful tool for managing your MRO/PPE inventory and can significantly optimise your processes, minimise costs and maximise productivity.

Let's talk about vending machines. Arbills vending machines come in three distinctive styles to fit the needs of any customer. We offer Drum Machines, Lockers, and Collectors and I will go into detail on each one. Drum- Sometimes called carousel machine. This is a high-capacity self-service machine that can hold and vend a variety of sizes of products. This machine is configurable to fit the product a customer is looking for no matter if it is a large or small item. You can dispense multiple items in one transaction, multi-lingual display with photos to ensure employees are selecting the correct item. Locker- Typical larger items go into the locker system and the lockers can attach to a drum machine. These lockers can be configured with power ports to charge devices (drill batteries, gas detectors, etc.). With these lockers, you can remove an item and then return it as well. Collector- This collector allows you to properly dispose of used products with a 520-pound capacity, used a lot with shop towels. These collectors add another level of sustainability. The great thing with these machines is that they all can be paired together to make a great vending system customized to a customer's needs. Let's connect on how a vending program could benefit your company, and provide reporting, sustainability, and accountability. #SaferEveryDay #vending #VMI #manufacturing
