Kitting is the process of packaging and combining your required hardware for production & manufacturing into a clean, self branded parcel delivered directly to its assembler.  We handle any sized kitting project for various businesses in industrial, aerospace & automotive industries.

Our dedicated team has multiple years of experience in kitting and assembly. We've developed the expertise needed to tailor custom solutions for your unique needs by streamlining processes and creating efficiency. By partnering with Karl W.

In many cases a simple free issue-style open inventory system is still the most suitable solution. Anything from a wide-open free issue to an attended tool crib, Karl W. Richter Ltd can help design an effective and efficient system, that can be managed with any level of control or traceability you require.

Kan Ban and Par are more sophisticated methods of managing open-style inventory programs. A two-bin system is an effective way to bring parts to production and although it does not always offer the most cost beneficial platform, it does deliver a competent solution for many production environments. The par system, which is a Karl W Richter Ltd developed inventory solution, is a VMI partnership that offers the best available package in open-style inventory systems.

Simply put, consignment is the ultimate in "just-in-time" inventory. It allocates an agreed quantity of material in a point-of-use fashion to your production without your business actually having to own the items. Your commitment to buy is only exercised when you use the parts. A variety of options are available on how to dispense parts and supplies, as well as administer the program.
