As global demand for sponge mats continues to grow, many manufacturers are searching for ways to increase output without expanding labor or production space. In this case study, we share how one factory successfully boosted productivity and reduced handling costs after upgrading to the NG-22Z Sponge Mat Tri Fold Packing Machine.

Background

The factory, specializing in sponge mats for fitness and home-use markets, relied heavily on manual folding and packaging. Although product quality was high, the process created bottlenecks:

Slow packing speed
Inconsistent folding
High labor requirements
Limited daily output

The management team needed a reliable solution to support rising orders — especially export orders with tight deadlines.

The Solution: NG-22Z Sponge Mat Tri Fold Packing Machine

After testing multiple options, the factory selected the NG-22Z for three key reasons:

Fully automatic tri-fold function for consistent folding
High-speed film packing system suitable for different mat sizes
Labor-saving design requiring minimal operator involvement

Installation and training were completed within one week, and the machine was immediately integrated into the existing production line.

Results After 90 Days

Within three months of operation, the factory saw significant improvements:

Performance Indicators	Before Upgrade	After NG-22Z
Daily Output	1,200 pcs	2,150 pcs
Labor Requirement	6 workers	2 workers
Defect / Rework Rate	7.8%	1.2%
Packing Consistency	Medium	Very High
Average Packing Time	28 sec/unit	13 sec/unit

Key Benefits Achieved

✔ Output increased by 79%
✔ Labor cost reduced by 67%
✔ Product consistency improved, helping reduce returns from overseas customers
✔ Production capacity now supports large e-commerce and container-based orders

What the Production Manager Said

“The NG-22Z completely changed our packing workflow. We no longer worry about delays during busy seasons, and our shipping accuracy is much better. This upgrade paid for itself much faster than expected.”
