Com-Pak Presort Services Announces Installation of 6th Commingling Sorter, Annual Capacity Reaches One Billion Pieces


Com-Pak Presort Services, a leader in commingling mail operations, today announced the installation of its sixth commingling sorter, bringing its annual capacity to one billion pieces.

Com-Pak Presort Services has experienced unprecedented growth with new business contracts and expanded relationships, leading to increased investment in equipment. The company regularly reduces customer postage costs by more than 10-percent using its sophisticated commingling process and logistics offering. With postage being the largest single cost item to direct mailers, the demand for commingling continues to grow.

The new sorting equipment not only increases capacity, but adds the capability to apply a delivery point barcode via high speed inkjet onto mail pieces. "We have customers that like the look of the delivery point barcode ink jetted onto the mail piece for marketing reasons," says Clif McDougall, CEO of Com-Pak Presort Services. "Our customers test and evaluate the performance of their direct mail campaigns frequently. When they find a technique that increases response, we want to offer that solution to meet their needs."

The new equipment also gives Com-Pak added flexibility to correct or add delivery point barcodes if a mail piece does not scan properly or lacks a barcode. "This capability allows us to meet our customer's needsand correct issues to ensure on time mailing," said Dave Loudon, general manager of Com-Pak Presort Services.



Commingling mail eliminates sorting done by the United States Postal Service, giving customers a lower postage cost. This automated process allows customers to benefit from each other's volume, creating large pools of five digit mail that are entered into the USPS (News - Alert) Sectional Center Facilities (SCF's). The company enters over 94-percent of its mail into the SCF's, expediting the delivery of mail to final home addresses. Com-Pak now provides commingling services to letter shops, printers, major corporations, fundraisers, and advertising agencies.

Com-Pak Presort Services helped pioneer a process called single pass, and is one of the few who can take a multiple CAPS directly into its standard mail commingling pools, something large mailers increasingly demand.
