Sidel launches Cermex EvoPack, a highly flexible industry 4.0 packaging platform. For specially shaped packaging in flat wrap cartons, trays and shelf-ready packaging (SRP).
One of the objectives of this solution is to limit repackaging activities. Which generate costs not only due to the additional packaging material used, but also the addition of manual tasks. Which now exceed the acceptable limits in terms of competitiveness and manufacturer margins. The environmental waste associated with repackaging makes it even less sustainable.
Didier Saussereau, Packing Project Manager at Sidel, points out that to reduce and simplify repackaging , the number of products per box must increasingly be reduced. Which will help manufacturers reduce the number of items per transport unit to batches of two.
He added that this management of small and large quantities of items per case will help to better anticipate trends and adapt new channels. As long as the traditional high manufacturing volumes for standard formats can still be handled on the same production line and with the same packaging solution.
Benefits of packaging machine
Cermex EvoPack provides an unprecedented range of secondary Industry Email List packaging sizes to handle a small number of products per case, with just two, three or four units. In addition to very high quantities of 24 containers or more, intended for repackaging, while allowing the handling of standard high-volume box sizes.
With its flexibility and extreme product-per-case capacity, the platform can help producers restore industrial margin with significant cost savings in:
Materials
Equipment
Energy
It also significantly contributes to reducing the carbon footprint and achieving sustainable development objectives. With a remarkable rate of up to 60 cases per minute in a compact configuration of less than 30 square meters, Cermex EvoPack offers fast and repeatable format changeovers. In a range that goes from just 5 minutes to 15 minutes for a format change of both bottles and boxes.
