Retail ready packaging with banding
Stack, pack, and display with less material
Move products from transport to shelf with less packaging, less waste, and less effort with banding.
Using banding material, you can stack, bundle, label, and prepare products for display.
Make retail packaging simpler. Make replenishment faster. Make every pack work harder.
How banding improves shelf ready packaging
Banding can help you:
- Reduce corrugated cardboard and shrink wrap packaging
- Bundle products securely
- Combine labeling and bundling in one solution
- Faster shelf replenishment
- Reduce packaging weight and volume
- Support cleaner waste separation
Replenish shelves faster
Make shelf stocking easier for retailers.
Banding helps products arrive in practical, ready-to-handle units. The band can be removed quickly, and the products can be seamlessly placed on the shelf with less sorting, cutting, or unpacking.
Reduce handling time. Keep products organized. Help shelves stay full with less effort.
Reduce waste in store
Generate less packaging to remove, sort, and dispose of.
Banding reduces waste at the source by replacing inefficient secondary packaging. Using less material, offering more functionality, and delivering the same results, banding optimizes material usage in retail-ready packaging.
Less to remove. Less to manage. Less to dispose of.
Create inner packs and multipacks
Create pack sizes that match picking, storage, transport, and shelf replenishment needs.
Support more efficient retail distribution by creating compact units that fit cases, crates, trays, or pallets more effectively.
Group products by operational need. Move them as one unit. Separate them when they reach the shelf.
Band Inner Packs
Bundle and label in one step
Combine retail-ready packaging and communication in one.
Use the band as a data carrier, whether preprinted or printed in real time, allowing you to add product information, barcodes, QR codes, and other variable data.
One band. Multiple functions.
A cleaner alternative to shrink film
Replace full wrap packaging with a better alternative.
Make your retail-ready packaging more sustainable by reducing plastic usage, energy consumption, and waste generation by switching to banding.
From excess to a minimal solution.
Banding vs Shrink Wrap
Suitable for many product types
Use one packaging method for many shapes, sizes, and categories.
Banding works for food and non-food products, including meat products, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, textiles, and more.
Adapt the band to the product. Choose paper or film. Use plain or printed material. Create the retail-ready pack your product needs.
Automation and labour savings
Bring speed and consistency to your packaging line.
Integrate banding machines into packaging lines to reduce manual packing work and create consistent retail-ready packaging.
Less manual handling. Improve line efficiency. Scale your retail packaging process with confidence.
