Bundling with banding
Secure bundles. Less packaging.
Need to group, secure, or combine products into one bundle?
Bundling with banding brings products together using paper or film banding material.
From simple product sets to automatically counted and stacked bundles, Bandall can configure the process around your products and production.

A simple way to create a secure bundle
Bundling with banding involves wrapping banding material around a group of products and sealing it at optimal tension.
The material acts as a secure band around the products, holding them together while using only the material needed to create a stable bundle.
The result? An efficient bundling solution that supports sustainable processes, improves handling, and reduces waste.
Why companies choose banding for bundling
Reduce packaging waste
Banding supports sustainability by creating little waste.
Add information directly to the band
Combine bundling and variable data printing to add price, QR codes, and more.
Product-friendly bundling
Adjust the band tension around the requirements of your product, from gentle holding to a firmer bundle.
Reduce operational costs
Compact bundles help reduce storage space and transportation expenses.
A smarter alternative to shrink wrap
Shrink wrap often relies on large amounts of plastic to group products together.
Banding uses only what is necessary to secure the bundle, making it an efficient alternative for companies looking to reduce plastic waste, simplify their operations, and improve sustainability efforts.
Easy handling throughout the supply chain
Banded bundles are compact, stable, and easy to handle from start to finish.
Benefits include:
- Efficient stacking and storage
- Improved handling during storage
- Fast and clean packaging removal
- Less waste for end users
By simplifying packaging, banding makes life easier for manufacturers, retailers, and consumers alike.
Combine bundling and labeling
With configured banding machines, variable data can be printed directly onto the banding material during the application process.
This allows each bundle to receive the correct information in real time, such as barcodes, QR codes, batch information, and other changing data.
Bundle the way your production works
Different production environments require different levels of automation.
A Stand-Alone machine gives operators a flexible way to create bundles manually.
An Automatic solution can transport, position, stack, and bundle products as part of a continuous production process.
Modular technology can integrate Bandall banding directly into an existing machine or packaging line.
And for applications that require something more specialised, a custom solution can be engineered around the complete bundling process.
Suitable for many industries
Banding is a flexible bundling solution for products in many shapes, sizes and industries.
It can be used for:
- Laundry
- Textile & materials
- Labels and graphic
- Boxes and cartons
- Food packaging
- Pharmaceutical and cosmetic packaging
From small packs to larger stacks, banding adapts to different product formats without adding unnecessary packaging complexity.
Frequently asked questions
What is bundling by banding?
Bundling by banding is a packaging method where paper or film banding material is applied around products to hold them securely together. It is used to create stable bundles while reducing packaging material compared to shrink wrap, boxes, or sleeves.
What products can be bundled with banding?
Banding can be used for food products, textiles, laundry, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and labels/in-mold labels.
Is banding an alternative to shrink wrap?
Yes. Banding is an efficient alternative to shrink wrap for many bundling applications. It uses significantly less packaging material and plastic overall.
Does banding use less energy than shrink wrapping?
Yes. Banding does not require heat tunnels, making it a more energy efficient alternative to shrink wrapping in many packaging applications.
How does banding reduce packaging waste?
Banding reduces packaging waste by using only a narrow paper or film band instead of fully wrapping the product. This helps lower material usage and simplifies disposal for the end user.
