DYKA orders RoRo StretchPack for packaging of 10-meter pipes

0

DYKA Group, a leading European manufacturer of pipework systems, has ordered a RoRo StretchPack® packaging solution from Tentoma A/S for packaging of 10-meter-long pipes. It will be installed in mid-2022 at the production site at Steenwijk in the Netherlands.

The main reason for this investment is that DYKA wants to improve the protection of its products against dirt and UV light, to ensure that both the quality and appearance are perfect when the pipes reach customers. The new packaging solution will also make it possible to have the DYKA logo nicely branded on the packaging film. It is not possible with the orbital wrapper, DYKA is using today.

Using RoRo StretchPack®, DYKA will pack up to 10-meter-long plastic pipes horizontal into a UV-resistant stretch film tube. The film tube will be sealed in both ends for 100% protection against dirt, water and UV light during storage and transportation. The stretch film also ensures tight and uniform packaging while it will minimize film consumption.

 

6-sided packaging in one operation

RoRo StretchPack® is 6-sided sealed packaging using a tubular stretch film. It is an innovative development of the well-proven stretch hood packaging technology for vertical hooding of e.g., pallets. Tentoma A/S has refined the technology for horizontal 6-sided packaging, which enable 100% sealed packaging in just one automated operation. RoRo StretchPack® is perfect for 100% waterproof packaging of long products, building materials and similar large products. The stretch film prevents excessive film use, and when customers shift to RoRo StretchPack®, they typically see reductions in film consumption between 25-60% compared to conventional packaging methods.
