Anti-Slip Pallet Sheets

Image
  The smart and cost saving use when handling any product on a pallet. Anti-Slip Kraft Paper, also called Anti-Skid Paper, is preferred in many applications due to its high coefficient of friction. It also has extremely high tear resistance and burst strength. For these reasons, many companies are using this product to provide greater stability when handling pallets, and to reduce product damage caused by product slipping off pallets. Our Anti-Slip Kraft paper is 100% recyclable. This grade of paper offers a much better yield and level of consistency versus other products such as Chipboard or Gypsum Board. It is most used as a pallet liner or tie sheet to stabilize products packed on a pallet. This product can be used manually or with automatic placement or pick-up systems (vacuum pick-up). The Anti-Slip properties can increase pallet angles by 15º to 25º, depending on the application and type of product being stacked. Unlike many alumina and silica nonskid treatments, our An...

Crushed Corrugated Boxes are not a good look.

Image
  To guarantee that items arrive at their destination in top condition, implementing effective, crush-resistant packaging strategies is essential. By taking proactive measures and focusing on the following crucial elements, you can protect shipments against various hazards during transit: Choose High-Quality Boxes: The foundation of your shipment dictates its resilience. Avoid thin cardboard without reinforcement. Instead, select materials for boxes that match the shipment's demands. Material: Corrugated fiberboard is superior to basic cardboard due to its layered structure and durability, handling varying levels of weight and pressure effectively. Structure: For heavy or fragile items, choose double-walled or triple-walled boxes, which offer greater durability and stacking strength than single-walled designs. Special Needs: Consider insulated packaging for temperature-sensitive items or water-resistant coatings for items that may encounter adverse weather conditions. St...

Why Use Water Activated Paper Tape?

Image
  WAT ( water activated tape ), is a powerful adhesive that bonds to both newly made and recycled fiber surfaces. In packaging, WAT was previously the standard taping method for decades until polyethylene tape (pressure sensitive tape) arrived as an affordable and convenient alternative. That all dramatically changed a few years ago when WAT returned to the market with some new and innovative advantages, noted below. Material Usage -8%: The average amount of tape needed to seal a single carton using WAT was 8% less than using pressure sensitive tape. Tape Integrity: In each environment tested, (room temperature, cold and tropical), cartons sealed with WAT remained intact, preventing tampering. Cartons sealed with pressure sensitive tape were not as secure and could be easily accessed without revealing any signs of tampering. Adhesion Strength: When WAT is removed from cartons, it also removes 80% of the carton’s fibers. Standard pressure sensitive tape can be easily remo...

How to Use Desiccants for Moisture Protection

Image
Moisture causes serious problems for many kinds of products, from pharmaceuticals to leather goods. A desiccant product such as silica gel can help. You will find these handy packets absorb extra moisture to keep things fresh and prevent damage during shipping and storage, making them a key part of protective packaging. What Is a Desiccant? Desiccants are materials that absorb or adsorb moisture from the air. Also known as drying agents, they are used to keep things dry in shipping or storage and prevent moisture damage. The most used desiccant material for shipping, packaging, and product protection is silica gel. Silica gel works by adsorption, meaning water molecules in the air are attracted to the surface of the material. Silica gel beads contain many microscopic pores that increase the surface area for attraction and hold onto the water molecules. What Are Desiccants Used For? A silica gel desiccant is used to reduce the humidity level in a closed environment and protect pro...
