For that reason, Tentoma has launched a full RoRo StretchPack® packaging line for 6-sided sealed door packaging. The new packaging line includes the following functionalities dedicated to the door manufacturing industry: • The door is lifted for mounting of corner protection • The door is centred on the infeed conveyor • The door size is measured (width x height) • The door is packed and sealed in one operation Using RoRo StretchPack®, the door is packed in a tubular stretch film. It provides a 6-sided packaging, with a short 100% waterproof sealing on each end. It protects the door against the penetration of dirt and moisture during storage and transportation. More door manufacturers have started using RoRo StretchPack® “We have seen more door manufacturers shifting to use RoRo StretchPack® for packaging,” Jane Tønder says. She is Head of Sales at Tentoma, who has developed the RoRo StretchPack® technology. She continues: “That is the reason why we have developed this complete packaging line to the door manufacturing industry. It can be installed as a standalone solution or as an inline solution in a fully automated production line. The final configuration will of course always be based on customers’ requirements”. The RoRo StretchPack® technology is based on the proven vertical stretch hood packaging of e.g. pallet. Tentoma has developed the technology further, so RoRo StretchPack® is able to perform a horizontal 6-sided sealed packaging in just one operation. RoRo StretchPack® is very suitable for packaging large goods like doors, tabletops, and similar. A film saving packaging solution RoRo StretchPack® is single layer packaging, in contrast, to e.g. orbital wrapping. The stretch film gives a tight packaging, where the film fits close to the door. Together, these properties prevent excessive use of film. When customers shift to RoRo StretchPack®, they typically see reductions in film consumption between 25-60% compared to conventional packaging methods. Remove heat shrink from the packaging line RoRo StretchPack® is a cold packaging process, which means that you can remove any heat shrink ovens from the packaging line. Thereby you reduce your energy consumption significantly. In contrast to heat shrink packaging, RoRo StretchPack® performed high repeatability and uniform packaging. It also ensures that branding printed on the stretch film is exposed nice and uniform on the packaging. Benefits of RoRo StretchPack® • 100% sealed and waterproof packaging • Packaging and sealing in one operation • Film savings up to 60% • Energy-saving up to 90% - by removing heat shrink • Tight, smooth, and nice packaging • Uniformed packaging suitable for branding The new RoRo StretchPack® door packaging line. The packaging line can be equipped with more film roll stations to different door sizes and brandings. Depending on thickness each roll can contain up to 6 km film. Using RoRo StretchPack® the door is packed into a tubular stretch film. The tubular film is sealed in both ends during the packaging to ensure 100% sealing. Packaging and sealing are done in one operation. Learn more at www.tentoma.com
