RS launches production packaging service

RS Components announces the launch of a production packaging service to help customers bring new products to market quickly.

In what is said to be the most significant change to its offering in the last 30years, RS Components has announced the launch of a production packaging service in France, Germany, Italy and the UK as part of an ongoing programme to help customers bring new products to market quickly.
The new venture allows customers to order bespoke product quantities packed in reels, tubes, trays and continuous strips for placement directly into automated production equipment. Furthermore, they will be able to order the exact quantity of components they need for their production runs, at no extra cost.
“The new service is particularly suited to meet our customers’ small batch production needs,” explained RS’ market development manager, Richard Eden. “It delivers a flexible, cost effective solution so that customers can purchase the quantities they need for a particular project eliminating the need to hold stock or dispose of any surplus.”
The service is available on 40,000 products from 150 manufacturers across the semiconductor, passive, electromechanical and connector product ranges.
