FOAMplus ® perfect protective
packaging solution from Storopack
As a leading global protective packaging supplier Storopack recognizes
the importance of ensuring goods are protected during transit and arrive
in perfect condition.
Damaged goods not only incur costs for replacement orders but also
affect businesses’ reputations. So while costs need to be kept to a
minimum it is vital to choose the correct protective packaging type.
Usually a void fill packaging medium will suffice. However when the
product is more sensitive to shock and vibration, such as engineering,
electronics, aeronautical, and many other expensive products then
more consideration has to be given to using the right type of in-the-box
protective packaging.
Storopack’s FOAMplus® range is a perfect solution for companies
that manufacture or ship products that require this highest degree of
protection eliminating transit and handling damage.
The success of FOAMplus® polyurethane foam is based upon its huge
versatility as a packaging medium. The foam can either be dispensed
directly into the carton where the expanding foam will mould itself to
the contours of the product shape or can be made into pre-moulded
cushions to enhance presentation. The product will satisfy the most
rigorous cushioning demands for high value, fragile and awkward
shaped products. The light weight foam packaging also ensures that
shipping costs are kept to a minimum whilst providing customers with
total product protection.
As a space saving solution FOAMplus®, polyurethane foam packaging is
‘on demand’ and mixes two components together which then expands
up to 200 times its liquid volume negating the necessity for large
storage areas required for pre-fabricated packaging.
The benefits for customers are numerous. As well as an ideal solution
for protecting awkward and valuable products, customers with product
design changes and new product line additions are able to quickly
adapt the packaging without the need to carry a large range of bespoke
cartons or fabricated packaging.
There are two dispensing methods available for the insitu protective
packaging solution. Either FOAMplus® Hand Packer, a manually operated
system, with a fully electronic microprocessor control to maintain
consistent quality that delivers the foam direct into polythene lined carton
via a foam dispensing gun.
Alternatively the Bag Packer² Foam-in-Bag dispensing system is fast,
easy to use, efficient and economical. The machine can produce up to
23 foam-filled bags per minute at the touch of a button. Polyol B 5504R,
foam B component is made from 30 percent recycled polyurethane.
