The AirPouch FastWrap system from Automated Packaging Systems is used to produce on demand bubble wrap commonly used for order fulfillment. The FastWrap system eliminates the need for those bulky bundles of bubble wrap that require large amounts of storage space and are difficult to handle.

The FastWrap portable table top unit is easy to use and is virtually maintenance-free. Simply plug-in the machine to any 110v outlet, insert the plastic film and it automatically produces protective bubble wrap for your packing needs. The table top unit is fast and can produce bubble wrap up to 55 linear feet per minute. Since FastWrap uses ambient air to fill the bubbles, there is no need for a compressor. The plastic bubble wrap material is fed directly from its box thus eliminating the need for an auxiliary feeder. One compact box of FastWrap takes up much less storage than bubble wrap and contains 1,750 linear feet (.3 miles) of earth friendly biodegradable packaging film.

Remember when receiving a UPS package and you had to dig past the poly styrene peanut shells to find the package‰Ûªs content? Once the excitement of receiving the package wore off, you had to clean up the mess made from left over dust and the hundreds of peanut shells that were scattered all over the floor. 99% of the time the peanut shells were thrown into the garbage where they ended up in a landfill.

Have you now noticed packages are coming will with balloon style packaging? This is also known as air-pillow or void fill packaging. Air pillow packaging is a cleaner and greener solution than peanut shell packaging.

When needed, air pillows are expanded with a portable machine whereas peanut shell packaging are always fully expanded thus requiring more warehouse space and increased transportation cost. One box of air pillows (8‰Û_x8‰Û_ or 275 cubic feet) equals 20 bags of peanuts @ 14 feetå_ /bag.

Flexible packaging supplies typically include polyethylene bags, on-demand bubble wrap, shrink wrap, stretch film, skin wrap, and void fill air pillows.

Flexible packaging is used to protect products in inventory or during transportation. As the name applies, flexible packaging is a non-rigid material usually made from a plastic polymer. Materials include polyethylene, polypropylene, polyester, and polyolefin. These packaging materials conform to the shape that it’s being packaged in, unlike corrugated packaging where items are packed into cardboard box.

Flexible packaging materials are used to package products in the pharmaceutical, food, industrial, logistic and distribution centers. Most often, equipment like a semi-automatic shrink wrapper, bagging or void-fill machinery are used along with flexible packaging materials in order to reduce labor cost and improve packaging efficiency. Corporate or products logos and graphics can also be branded on these materials.

Pyramid Packaging is a Chicagoland and national supplier of business to business flexible packaging supplies and machinery. For more information contact Pyramid Packaging at 847-272-3400 or click here to contact us about your flexible packaging needs.

 

Automated Packaging Systems has introduced a new, thinner void fill packaging film to be used with the AirPouch Express 3 void-fill packaging machine.

The new EathAware biodegradable, void fill film is only 0.95 mil thick opposed to its 1.5 mil predecessor.

Since the film is thinner, a 1,000 more linear feet of material can be packed in the same size box when compared to the 1.5 mil film. Automated Packaging Systems advanced polymer formulation has increased the film’s puncture resistance and strength. The thinner film also contains an additive that causes biodegradation in 9 months to 5 years, depending on exposure conditions. The thinner film also uses less raw materials making it even more green friendly.

The material comes pre-formed and fan-folded in box that contains nearly 5,000 feet of uninflated pillows, minimizing changeover times and storage space requirements.
