The selection of these materials depends on the nature of the product and size. It is done to facilitate the transportation of products and good to large areas for distribution in original manufactured conditions. On the packaging material, the details of the product, its ingredients, formula, manufacturing date, expiry date and precautions if any, etc are printed. Purposes of packing are to give protection to the products or goods. This is the primary function and aim of the packaging. Depending on the product, the material of packaging gives protection from shock, vibrations, physical damage, scratches and dents. The packaging materials use will depend on the kind of protection that is needed for that particular product. For example, the electronics and fragile products are packed with thick foam sheets for absorbing sho...

Fabricated by using modern machinery, the shrinkage wrapping machinery is used in widely used for wrapping packaging of materials. This blog discusses different attributes of the shrinkage packaging machinery and other packaging machinery in the most efficient manner.

The shrinkage wrapping machinery is appreciated for automatic control of the switch-on functions. Fabricated by using modern machinery and in accordance to the industry laid norms, the shrinkage wrapping machinery is known 4 prod...

The spending on the packed foods in India is still low when compared with other countries of the world. But this trend in increasing as there is demand for packed foods due to rapid urbanization, increase in disposable income and growth in young working population. The annual growth is in region of 13 – 15 % which is expected to take the packing industry of India to 32 billion dollars in the next four to five years.   Private and public sectors are working together to create at least 30 food parks. These parks will encourage the growth of packing industry, related infrastructure, packing transport and refrigeration facilities. The boost from establishing food parks will see an investment of around 25 billion $ in next few years in the food packing industry. The increase in middle class population of India and its rising disposable income will push the growth of packing industry into north ward direction.  The total value of world packing industry is around 550 billio...

All the operations of the shrinkage wrapping machines are fully automatic in nature and enhance better packaging efficiency. Different attributes of the shrink wrapping is discussed in this blog. The shrink wrapping machinery is classified into automatic shrinkage, manual shrinkage wrapping machinery and semi-automatic shrink wrapping machines. All these shrink wrapping machines are known and appreciated for their self-regulating electronically controlled temperature sealing system. For ensuring optimum safety of the packaging or shrink wrapping applications, the shrink wrapping machinery is equipped with the most advanced safety systems. Automatic shrink wrapping machines can be...

Wrapping machine is a machine that uses a thin plastic film, paper, or aluminum film to cover a product or products. The wrapping can be over the whole body of the product or it can also be partial, covering only half of the body of the product or carton. Wrapping machine can be banding machine, which can wrap only band of material around any product. Sliver banding machine can use two reels of films to enclose or wrap a group of products. Stretch banding machine uses a band firmly around a product by using polyethylene film. Fold wrapping machines uses foil around a product for wrapping without any heat. Dedicated banding machines can use a reel of film or paper, which is sealed with heat .The product, is held stationery or pushed on the conveyor .The film or paper is moved over the product and then the film is tightened and sealed with heat or with ultrasound weld. This type of process is bit slowly. This type of wrapping method is suitable for wrapping random products because ...
