ORBIS Europe will be presenting its sustainable and durable plastic transport packaging solutions for use in various industries at LogiMAT (March 19-21 in Stuttgart, hall 4, stand 4C80). These include the manufacturing and automotive industries, the food and beverage industry and the transportation of hazardous goods. "Our sustainable and durable packaging solutions improve the product flow along the entire supply chain. In this way, we help companies to minimize costs in the long term and reduce CO2 emissions at the same time," says Jürgen Krahé, Senior Commercial Director EMEA.
Large volume containers for heavy components
ORBIS is presenting the XXLPak for use in the automotive and manufacturing industries. Measuring 1638 x 1219 mm, the extra-long container can transport particularly large and bulky components and is also ideal for use in automated production processes. The maximum load capacity is 900 kilograms. The XXLPak is foldable and therefore enables a return ratio of 1:2.6. Thanks to its stackability (1+4 static and 1+3 dynamic), trucks are optimally utilized during transport. As a result, fewer vehicles are on the road – which reduces greenhouse gases. Users can adapt the XXLPak to their supply chain using different height and door configurations.
The GitterPak large load carrier measuring 1200 x 800 mm can also be used to transport heavy components efficiently, replacing steel mesh boxes. Unlike steel, plastic does not rust, which prevents components from being damaged or scratched. The smooth inner walls offer additional product protection. When folded, 272 GitterPaks can be transported per truckload.
Hygienic solution for the FMCG industry
In the food and beverage industry, packaging must meet high hygiene standards. This is what the plastic pallets from ORBIS are designed for. Compared to wooden pallets, plastic is less susceptible to damage, splintering or breakage, which means that the goods are better protected. This allows primary packaging such as aluminum cans, glass and plastic bottles to be transported safely. The non-porous surface makes it easier for users to clean the pallets. The upper deck of the pallets also has ventilation holes, making them suitable for automated washing and drying systems. The long service life means that companies need to replace the pallets less frequently, which conserves natural resources and saves costs at the same time. The PlastiCorr® reusable packaging solution also ensures more sustainable transportation in the FMCG segment. It replaces corrugated cardboard boxes 1:1 and is suitable for use in automated packaging lines. Even after several cycles, the plastic solution retains its quality and functionality. Companies can reuse PlastiCorr® 70 times or more, significantly improving their return on investment and carbon footprint.
Safe transportation of hazardous goods
ORBIS also offers solutions for the hazardous goods segment: The hazardous goods container IonPak® has been specifically developed for the transportation of lithium-ion batteries and other solid hazardous goods and can be used for up to 400 kg net hazardous goods in accordance with RID/ADR. An inner packaging solution optimized for hazardous goods provides additional protection for the transported goods and can be adapted to individual customer requirements. The IonPak® is also suitable for use in fully and semi-automated production facilities.
