Thin and Sustainable Stretch Film: BBA Emballages Offers the Best Palletizing Solution for Reduced Waste and Environmental Impact

2023-07-13 09:21:10

”At BBA Emballages, we offer the thinnest palletizing stretch film available today, says Vitor Sousa, product and development manager.

The majority of films are between 15 and 23 microns thick. The one we distribute does not exceed 12 microns with an equivalent resistance of the pallets and deposited weights. In order to convince customers of the advantages of this film, our teams can travel to audit them and give demonstrations.”

UP TO 60% REGENERATED RAW MATERIALS

This stretch film called ECOW’REG is regenerated because it is made with, depending on the references, between 30 and 60% recycled materials from recycling circuits. This film is part of a circular economy.

Its composition allows customers to be exempt from certain taxes when they export to certain countries with restrictive environmental regulations.

WITHOUT CHUCK, THEREFORE WITHOUT WASTE

In addition, and once more unlike what the competition offers, this stretch film is coreless (cardboard on which the film is rolled).

Another advantage, thanks to the reduction in the volume of waste. It allows the reduction of recycling costs.

It should also be noted that the absence of a mandrel allows the film to be used to the last meter, with savings over time for large consumers.

A LOW CARBON FOOTPRINT

If we compare the water and energy carbon footprint between a standard 20 micron film and its equivalent in the ECOW’REG range, the figures are clear:
– carbon footprint: less 1,615 kg of CO2/pallet;
– water footprint: minus 4,985 liters of water/pallet;
– energy footprint: less 2,571 Gj/pallet.

AN ECONOMIC FILM

ECOW’REG stretch film can be used both manually to wrap pallets, as it is very light, but also on machines with or without pre-stretching unit. In this way it is possible to cover all uses.

All these cumulative advantages allow a net reduction of the film budget.

AN EXTENDED RANGE OF 2000 REFERENCES

Specialized for more than 50 years in the field of packaging distribution in France, the company is able to offer (in addition to stretch films) an extensive range of 2,000 references meeting all expectations in terms of packaging: packaging cardboard, cardboard paper, cushioning and protection products, shipping pouches, adhesives, etc.

Whatever the sector of activity or the location of the activity, BBA Emballages is committed to its industrial customers to solve their problems of packaging and logistical constraints. For this, the company has 70 sales staff, a network of 26 agencies and 11 warehouses covering the entire territory.
