Coated Films
The shipping, handling and warehousing of coated films requires a packaging solution that ensures maximum protection from marring, scratching or indentation damage that can make them unusable.
Rollguard® provides high-quality roll packaging for coated film rolls, ensuring top-notch protection throughout the packaging, shipping, and warehousing process.
Challenges of Shipping and Handling Coated Film Rolls
Coated film is highly sought after due to its exceptional barrier properties against moisture, oxygen and strong aromas. Primarily used for food packaging, coated film ensures products reach consumers in perfect condition. The challenge lies in delivering this packaging material to manufacturers efficiently and damage free.
Any damage during shipping, handling, or storage can impair the rolls’ performance with packaging machines, affecting the quality customers expect.
Rollguard cradles provide an excellent solution for coated film rolls, which are prone to damage like tearing and crushing. The cradles’ efficient design creates a stable structure, allowing each roll to support the one below it without:
- The rolls shifting during transit
- Impact damage or indentations on the roll surface
- Friction between rolls leading to abrasions
