What is banding?

Banding is an innovative packaging solution that uses a sleek band to wrap your product with the help of a banding machine. Think of it as a ribbon, but this "ribbon" does more than just secure your product. It becomes a canvas to highlight your branding, share product details, and much more.

It’s the perfect combination of functionality and style, all in one seamless solution.

How does banding work?

The magic of banding happens with specially designed banding machines. Here's how it works:

Place your product: Depending on the machine type, products are placed inside the banding machine’s arch, either manually or automatically.

The band wraps around: The banding arch guides a strip of paper or film around the product and seals it at optimal tension.

Remove your product: The perfectly packaged product is manually or automatically removed from the arch.

More than just a band

Banding is a solution that can do so much for your packaging including:

Labeling: Display essential product info, barcodes, or instructions with ease.
Bundling: Group multiple items together efficiently for transport or sale.
Branding: Add custom designs, logos, or messaging to your packaging.
Sealing: Seal products with an optimally tensed band.

The benefits of banding don’t stop here. Read more about how this solution can take your packaging to a new level.

Banding material

When it comes to banding, the material you choose can make all the difference in both functionality and customer experience. We offer two material options, each designed to meet specific needs:

Paper: Easily recyclable, has minimal environmental footprint, and gives your product an eco-friendly look and feel.

Film: Delivers a sleek, premium appearance while offering enhanced durability for sturdier packaging.

The need for smarter, sustainable packaging

Packaging is undergoing a transformation. With regulations like the European PPWR (Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation) aiming to reduce waste and pollution, the industry can no longer operate as it once did.

Here’s how banding meets current packaging regulations:

  • Significantly reduces the usage of packaging materials.
  • Promotes a circular economy with mono packaging.
  • Packaging is easily recycled.
  • Bands are made from sustainable packaging materials.
