2. Challenges for Today’s Distribution
and Fulfillment Centers
Due to the thousands of products and many different packaging
configurations, most of today’s distribution and fulfillment centers
purchase a large assortment of labels and forms for packaging and
shipping purposes. This mixture of shipping supplies:




Creates significant amounts of inventory.
Requires large amounts of storage space .
Requires tracking and maintaining inventory.
Necessitates that employees must learn many different labels and
forms.
 Requires a lot of employee time maintaining pricing structures.
 Generates more work obtaining multiple bids, taking purchasing
agents away from other essential tasks.

3. Challenges for Today’s Distribution
and Fulfillment Centers cont.
There are additional challenges when using numerous labels and forms.
Different labels often require the purchase, and maintenance, of various types
of equipment, printers, ribbons, and toners. This in turn:
 Each additional piece of printing equipment takes up valuable space on
picking/packaging stations.
 Utilizing several pieces of equipment, forms, and labels decreases
uniformity, and increases the likelihood of errors.
 These errors affect delivery time, customer satisfaction, and efficiency.
 This variety of equipment requires that employees be trained to perform
the necessary maintenance, and to resolve issues as they occur.
 Pickers must be trained on the use of the various printers, and the variety
of labels and forms, used at their stations to help prevent issues from
occurring.

4. The My1Stop.com Solution
My1Stop.com has developed a patent pending
shipping label/packing slip combination
specifically designed with high volume
distribution and fulfillment centers in mind.
This innovative, exclusive product is called the
Auto Fold Label®.
The Auto Fold Label® eliminates the need to
repackage an item simply to add a packing slip.
This elongated, single label, with strategically
placed perforations and void holes, is proving
to be the most efficient label/form combination
on the market.

5. Auto Fold Label®
Printing and Equipment
The Auto Fold Label® is printed with a single print head, direct
thermal printer, on the top side only. The label is easily folded on
a perforation near the center, either by hand or by high speed
print and apply labeler, and is then applied to the package. With
the packing slip neatly tucked under the shipping label, the label
is securely adhered on all sides.
My1Stop.com has teamed with CTM Labeling Systems to develop
a high speed applicator specifically for this labeling solution; the
3600 STAFF Labeler/Applicator. CTM Labeling Systems is a
proven innovator in their industry, and well known for their
superior products and service. They currently supply
printers/applicators to many of the large fulfillment centers in
America. Detailed specs on the printer/applicator can be
obtained by contacting CTM Labeling Systems directly.

6. Auto Fold Label™
Distributor Application
Utilizing the Auto Fold Label® is quite simple.
1.
An order is received and sent to a picking station.
2. The picker reads the monitor, then selects and boxes the product.
3. The picker then attaches a license plate label to the package.
4. The package is placed on the conveyor and travels to the shipping area.
5. A scanner reads the license plate label, prints both the shipping label and packing
slip information on the Auto Fold Label® and auto applies the label to the package.
The 3600 STAFF labeler/applicator also has a function that perfectly folds the label,
but does not apply it which is great for hand apply applications.

7. Auto Fold Label® Customer Benefits
Once the customer receives the package, they
simply follow the printed instructions on the label.
1.
Pull the zipper strip.
2. Pull down on the label, removing the packing slip
and shipping label.
3. All of the important information, including their
personal information, is now removed from the
package.
4. Only the label matrix (picture frame) is left on the
package. All personal and product information is
removed from the package. Barcode and customer
identifiers may be printed on the matrix area for
internal identifiers.
