A diverse and expanding industry

The Tissue market consists in paper products in various forms, such as rolls and parallelepipedal (folded) products, manufactured using diverse techniques depending on their use: single-ply and smooth or embossed bonded multi-ply products with different purposes. The products manufactured using these materials are used in very diverse settings, such as the biomedical, cosmetics and industrial sectors. They range from hospital paper rolls to rolls for corporate cleaning, as well as toilet paper, interfolded hand towels, napkins, paper tissues and wipes. According to the forecasts, in the South American area alone, the market will grow to a value of 66 billion dollars by 2028, compared to 45 billion in 2020, with a compound growth rate of 4.6% for the 2021 - 2028 period.*

ECO WRAP: the perfect solution for the LATAM market

The ideal solution for the LATAM market is ECO WRAP, a machine with an excellent performance to priceratio, intended primarily for small and medium-sized enterprises that intend to automate the end-of-the-line with a high-tech solution. At the same time, however, ECO WRAP satisfies the needs of multinationals with medium-/low-speed automated lines.  It is a machine for wrapping “AFH” rolls or folded products using plastic film and is able to use a wide range of packaging materials. The machine creates perfectly sealed bags, allowing a broad series of product configurations. This type of packaging is especially well-suited to pre-packaged paper rolls for industrial use and individually packed folded products. The packaging process does not generate any wrapping material scraps or rejects, which cuts out disposal costs and allows a significant saving of wrapping material.

Efficiency behind the name 

The ECO WRAP does not merely save packaging material, it also allows energy saving: the flow wrapper creates high quality bags that are tight-fitting and do not necessarily require the use of a shrink tunnel. Lastly, the one-piece design allows fast commissioning of the machine, which can be very quickly installed. It can also be rapidly configured for start-up. This avoids prolonged line stoppages and improves production efficiency.
