Reproducible examples
These are transparent test scenarios, not customer stories. Each result below is generated by the same calculation package used by the browser tools.
Two carton types on an EPAL-size footprint
Inputs: 1,200 × 800 mm footprint, 1,200 mm cargo-height limit, 1,500 kg cargo limit; 24 small 400 × 200 × 200 mm cartons at 10 kg and 8 large 600 × 400 × 300 mm cartons at 20 kg.
Result: 32 loaded, 1 pallet, 4 layers, 0 unallocated.
Mixed cartons in a conservative 20 ft dry container
Inputs: 5,898 × 2,350 × 2,350 mm internal space, 2,337 × 2,261 mm door, 28,000 kg planning limit; 120 retail cartons and 40 bulk cartons using the dimensions shown in the live example.
Result: 160 loaded across 2 containers, with 0 unallocated.
Mixed-carton shipment volume
Ten 600 × 400 × 300 mm cartons plus twenty 400 × 300 × 200 mm cartons.
Result: 30 cartons and 1.200 m³.
DHL-style standard metric volumetric comparison
One 40 × 30 × 50 cm package, 8 kg actual weight, divisor 5,000.
Result: 12 kg dimensional weight and 12 kg comparison weight.

Where the tools create value
They replace repeated arithmetic, preserve explicit assumptions, expose unallocated items, and produce a reviewable plan. They do not claim a guaranteed freight saving, revenue increase, carrier quote, or safety approval. A spreadsheet may remain sufficient for a one-off simple shipment; these tools are most useful when scenarios need to be compared or repeated.
