Optimizing packaging impact through smart labelling solutions
Minimizing plastic use in packaging presents companies with valuable opportunities to merge sustainability with efficiency. Etipack’s advanced labelling systems make this possible, offering a solution that reduces material waste while enhancing product presentation.
Sustainable packaging: a strategic choice
Sustainable packaging is becoming a key priority for both businesses and the environment. Etipack’s innovative solutions eliminate excess packaging, leading to significant cost savings and a reduced ecological footprint. By leveraging labelling technology, companies can transition towards more responsible packaging without compromising functionality.
Versatile multipack labelling: from food to cosmetics and personal care
Etipack’s multipack labelling process utilizes opposing labels applied during batch assembly, providing a smart and flexible alternative to conventional packaging. This approach is suitable for a wide range of products, from single-portion bags to larger multi-portion packs. The adaptability of Etipack’s systems ensures seamless integration with specific production needs while maintaining efficiency.
The labelling systems for Multipacks are based on labelers positioned on opposing sides of customized conveyor belts, which allow two side labels to be applied simultaneously when passing batches of packages. This results in a single multipack at the outlet whose packages are holded thanks to the labels.
Etipack’s labelling systems can be fully customized according to specific manufacturing needs to be integrated into packaging lines. They not only enhance production processes but also provide a sustainable alternative by replacing traditional secondary packaging with efficient labelling techniques leading to significant cost savings while minimizing the environmental impact of the products.
Innovative multipacks: sustainable packaging with innovative handle label
Multipack Handle® Labeling Machine is a special packaging line with a customized labeling system for wet-wipes that enables the application of innovative patented handle labels – Multipack Handle® (Registered trademark by Palladio Group) – as a unique packaging method to make multipacks eliminating the need for additional packaging, of any material and format.
Developed in collaboration with two industrial partners, the line integrates a customized Etipack labelling solution consisting of two labeling machines positioned at the end of the line – one above and one below the conveyor belt – capable of simultaneously applying 2 Multipack Handle labels at the top and bottom, making it possible to assemble modular batches of wet wipes into a single multipack.
Among the many types of labels that can be used for multipacks when using Etipack systems, the exclusive patented* Multipack Handle® labels stand out as particularly innovative. The handle provides a practical method of pick-up and transport that complements the above-mentioned benefits offered by multipack labelling systems. It also allows single-sided multi-pack applications – avoiding material-saving C-shaped (3-sided) applications – and can support multipacks of up to 5 kg. The project was recognized with Best Packaging and WorldStar awards and will be awarded during the Ipack-Ima exhibition.
Automation and flexibility for every need
Designed with modularity in mind, Etipack’s labelling systems offer multiple customization options to meet specific production demands. These systems can function as standalone units with manual loading or be seamlessly integrated into existing packaging lines, including connections with other machinery such as filling systems.
This flexibility makes them an ideal choice for both manufacturers and packaging machine producers looking to optimize efficiency and sustainability. With Etipack’s cutting-edge labelling solutions, businesses can enhance their packaging strategies while making a positive impact on the environment.
