Colines, first time at Interpack as exhibitor
The upcoming edition of Interpack, which will take place from 4 to 10 May in Dusseldorf, will be a special one for the Italian company COLINES, which will participate for the first time as an exhibitor at the trade fair dedicated to the packaging world. While extrusion lines remains COLINES core business, at Interpack 2023 the company will present its ALLWrapper, the revolutionary and versatile any bundle wrapping machine for the secondary packaging using stretch film.
"The machine is aimed at large retailers," explains Marcello Baruffo, project manager for ALLWrapper at COLINES, "and its strength stays in its extreme versatility of use, making it suitable for practically all products that are commonly bundled with shrink wrap or cardboard. At the moment, our main challenge is to make the product known in order to change the market's mindset. Being a deeply innovative solution, the first necessary step is to make its goodness understood. This is the reason why we decided to exhibit at Interpack (hall 11, stand C20), also because of the success the machine had at the K fair."
During the event held last October in Dusseldorf, COLINES presented the latest model of its ALLWrapper line, arousing great interest: "Many visitors stopped to watch a demo and this resulted in the sale of two machines during the fair period and the beginning of several negotiations in a few months, some of which have already been finalized. Participation in Interpack is a further step forward to promote the product, but in the coming months we will go further: for the first time we will participate in the Cibustec fair in Parma and we aim to be at the next Anuga FoodTec in 2024."
The company is also confident about what makes the ALLWrapper machine unique when compared to their competitors: "First of all, there is a concrete saving in terms of film used because stretch film requires lower thicknesses, with savings of up to 50% compared to shrink film. Moreover, compared to the few alternatives that exist on the market, ALLWrapper is highly innovative: the film pre-stretch and wrapping system guarantee millimetre precision and allow us to distribute the tension on the product exactly as we want. The advantage is that softer products are not deformed, while stiffer ones allow for higher pre-stretch, with a consequent further film saving."
