What is keeping you from co-mailing?

Tuesday, May 19, 2009

Brown is dedicated to providing the most cost-effective and efficient service of co-mailing of your product. This dedication has led to a third co-mail line installation at the Brown/ALG co-mail facility in Bolingbrook, IL.

The Brown and ALG partnership has led to co-mail pool growth of over 65 percent. The new 30-pocket co-mailer will increase overall production capacity allowing for unrivaled flexibility and postal savings.

In addition to the new line, Brown and ALG will be expanding their existing co-mail lines to 35 pockets. New specialized thin pocket feeders will accommodate book thicknesses down to 2 pages, further expanding the flexibility of the operation.

“The addition of a third co-mail line and improvements to our existing equipment and processes demonstrate commitment to continual improvement and expansion of our industry leading co-mail platform,” said Monica Hundt, Brown’s Co-Mail Manager.

Corey - Since we began our partnership with ALG Worldwide Logistics the co-mail spec options we can offer our customers have increased significantly. Contact me (contact.us@bpc.com) and I would be happy to provide you with additional information.

The last time we looked into co-mailing we were told we had too many versions (MNIs) in my mail file.

Ramone, Brown has come up with a very strategic and efficient way to feed multiple book versions from the same pocket. In some cases we have been able to accommodate as many as 43 versions into just 4 pockets on our co-mail line. Please contact us (contact.us@bpc.com) for more information.

Our publication varies in size, sometimes it is less than 1/16" thick and sometimes it more than 3/8"... this impacts our ability to co-mail.

Mary, Brown is in the process of installing 2 thin pocket feeders per line to accommodate books as thin as 2 pages. Contact us today with your book sizes and we will work to accommodate you.
