Local Procurement of Product Transportation Protection Sheets in Vietnam | Direct Delivery to the Line via Adhesive Tape and Slitting Process

In parallel with the launch of mass production for a new product, the client wanted to secure protection sheets locally to prevent scratches during transportation—We selected an adhesive tape optimized for adhesive strength, peelability, and weather resistance, and performed slitting processes at our Vietnam base. This achieved a stable supply synchronized with the launch of the new product. "Shortage in Local Procurement of Protection Sheets" That Emerged with the New Product Launch The client wanted to secure protection sheets locally to prevent scratches during new product transportation. It was necessary to establish a stable procurement route in parallel with new product development.They were unable to find a tape with the suitable adhesive strength and peelability locally.●Emerging Situation: New product development phase. Pre-mass production preparation at the Vietnam production base.●Main Impact: Risk of delay in new product launch, falling behind local competitors due to unestablished supply chain. Why It Cannot Be Secured Locally: Mismatch Between Required Physical Properties for Adhesive Strength and Peelability, and Local Standard Commercial Products Requirements for adhesive strength, weather resistance, and peelability are high, and local standard commercial products lack the necessary physical properties. The supply chain is unestablished.●Specific Basis: Quality and cost hearings, and verification of the physical properties of local candidate tapes. Countermeasures Tried So Far and Their Limitations Adopting local standard commercial tapes (residue adhesive, poor peeling), air transportation from the Japanese headquarters (unacceptable cost and lead time). Based on these limitations, the following approach was adopted as a more radical measure. Solution Approach: New Adhesive Tape Proposal × Vietnam Local Slitting × Local Stock Optimized to the required shape through a new adhesive tape proposal + local slitting processing. STEP. 01 New Material Proposal Selecting tape with weather resistance, low contamination, and peeling characteristics STEP. 02 Local Slitting Cutting in Vietnam to match the dimensions of the jig STEP. 03 Local Stock Vietnam storage and shipping tracking mass production fluctuations Fuji Chemi Trading's Provision System: Vietnam Base × Cooperating Manufacturers This solution is established through the division of roles across multiple bases.・Vietnam Base: Raw roll stock, slitting, local delivery・Cooperating Manufacturers: Adhesive tape supply●Supply System: Immediate delivery via local slitting, multiple SKUs can be managed by product type specification. Results of Implementation In conjunction with the new product launch, delivery time and supply stability improved. Achieved three points simultaneously: cost, local production, and inventory responsiveness.●KPI Candidates: Improvement of local procurement ratio / Zero stockouts during new product launch / Reduction of logistics costs.●Implementation Lead Time: Synchronized with the development schedule from sample evaluation to mass production launch. Expected Ripple Effects and Horizontal Expansion The effects of implementing this solution are not limited to solving the main issue. Please also utilize it as material for internal proposals and executive-level presentations.・Horizontal expansion to product transportation, parts transportation, and in-container protection・Protection film proposals for other processes (painting masking, assembly protection)・Ripple effect on cushioning materials and anti-rust materials through adhesive variation expansion・Creating a story for developing new local manufacturers Difference from Competitors: Why Fuji Chemi Trading Is Chosen Local tape trading companies have variations in physical properties and lack of SKUs. Fuji Chemi can provide a hybrid proposal of "local procurement with Japanese specifications." Product Information and Spec Overview The main specifications of products with a track record of adoption can be selected from multiple grades depending on the application and requirements.

Yes, it can be applied to overall manufacturing process protection applications such as painting masking, assembly protection, and in-container protection. Is it possible to adjust the adhesive strength? Through expanding adhesive variations, selection tailored to the application and temperature conditions is possible. I am concerned about adhesive residue. Do you have low-contamination products? We carry low-contamination type adhesive tapes. We can also provide contamination test data for painted and plastic surfaces. Can you respond at bases other than Vietnam? The same local slitting and inventory scheme can be expanded at our Thailand and China (Shanghai) bases as well. Can we also request cushioning materials and anti-rust materials in addition to those for finished product transportation? Yes, we welcome consultations regarding all types of related protective materials.
