AntiSlip Gluing: stabilize the pallets in an eco-friendly way
If sustainability means acting responsibly towards the environment, the adhesive application solutions put in place by Robatech fully meet this principle.
With the aim of optimizing production processes and reducing waste, while respecting the use of resources, stabilizing the pallets through AntiSlip Gluing - applying hot glue directly on the packaging - allows savings in terms of costs and resources, reducing the use of protective film and interlayer, without however compromising the stability of the goods, protection against dust and moisture and integrity during transport and storage.
When “less is more”. The AntiSlip Gluing solution consists in a thin application of hot glue in spirals or strips on the upper side of the packs, which guarantees a secure anchorage during palletization. The use of the protective film is therefore reduced to a minimum, useful only to protect the goods from dust.
Furthermore, even depalletisation is very simple and the waste due to damage is significantly reduced. In addition to being convenient, the solution proposed by Robatech is clearly ecological, environmentally friendly and can easily be integrated into the production process or adopted as a retrofit.
Double advantage. With conviction, Robatech proposes this technology to the packaging industry because, with a minimum and simple effort, a double benefit is obtained.
«Respect for the environment is an asset of our company philosophy and for this reason we think that AntiSlip Gluing is not only effective but also an adequate means to guarantee a better environment for future generations» explains Hanspeter Huber, Industry Manager of the Packaging sector at Robatech.
Using less material means actually reducing waste and gluing ensures a very stable anchorage, which reduces the risk of damage to goods, thus contributing to considerable savings».
