TenCate has installed a RoRo StretchPack solution at its production site near Paris to replace heat shrink wrapping. RoRo StretchPack from Tentoma is a cold packaging technology that uses a tubular stretch bonnet film for horizontally sealed packaging of large rolls.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

TenCate develops and produces geosynthetics that are used in civil engineering, including Nonwovens, geogrids and fabrics<\/strong>. The new RoRo StretchPack packaging line has increased the packaging capacity at the Bezons plant.<\/p>

\u201eOur packaging capacity has increased and we can now pack a greater variety of roll formats.\u201c<\/p>

Christophe Dupont<\/strong>, Plant Manager\u00a0<\/p><\/blockquote>

In particular TenCate was able to increase the packaging capacity for the very large rolls<\/strong>. The packaging quality has also improved after the new packaging line from Tentoma was installed. By using a stretch bonnet film instead of a heat shrink film, the packaging is now tight and slim.<\/p>

In the past, the packaging had a long weld seam along the side of the roll, which could easily tear during transport and handling. This is different now. The tubular stretch bonnet film leaves no sealing seam along the side of the roll<\/strong>, but only uses a short and strong sealant at each end of the roller.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The tight packaging eliminates the excessive use of film for packaging, which TenCate previously had to reduce by shrinking anyway. In addition, stretch film has the following advantages over shrink film higher puncture resistance, so that the film thickness can be reduced<\/strong>, without compromising the packaging quality. In addition to film consumption, the elimination of the heat shrink oven energy consumption is also reduced<\/strong>. Overall, RoRo StretchPack has helped to improve sustainability compared to the heat-shrink packaging line.<\/p>
