PAPER

Main Characteristics

Paper is a material composed

of cellulose paste is transformed
in mechanical or chemical
processes. Depending on the
process to submit, it gives rise to
different types of paper, such as
writing, drawing, print and wrap,
among others.
 History

In ancient Egypt it was written on papyrus, a very

abundant on the banks of the Nile (Cyperus
papyrus) plant. In Europe, the parchment.

However, the Chinese were already making paper

from waste silk, rice straw, and hemp, and even
cotton. Is traditionally considered the first
papermaking process was developed by the
eunuch Cai Lun,
 Main Types

environmental image.

• Paper is a cheap packaging material to use

• Paper has good printability
 Disadvantages
• Poor barrier properties to oxygen, carbon dioxide and
water vapour

• Does not prevent loss of flavour components or volatiles

from foods.

• Can not be heat sealed

• Can be easily torn
 Main uses

For representing value

For personal use
For temporary personal use
For communication
For packaging
For cleaning
For construction
 DISPLAYS
They are elements of presentation of a product that can serve as
elements of packaging and packaging allow rapid and effective
preparation at the point of sale.
Main características
• The display finds its natural space in retail
• display is a form of advertising at the point of sale
• Its location and dimensions do not give rise to present large arguments
HOW ITS MADE ?
- For materials such as cardboard are often used for cutting and creasing operations stamping
machines and presses .
- They are folding and gluing machines are used to fold and glue .
- Finally they are usually printed or lined with printed paper.

solution for the various sectors industry and crafts.

• The ability of strap to retain its tension levels despite the shifting and settling that
occurs during transit

• A range of applied tension whose minimum may be zero on a fragile package to a

maximum of the highest tension level at which strapping is applied in actual
situations

Signode Industrial Group: Helping our customers
reduce their packaging waste and disposal costs

Signode’s innovative Closed Loop Recycling Program

enables companies to recycle used polyester
strapping to reduce their packaging waste and
disposal costs. It’s an easy, practical and economical
way for businesses to fulfill their environmental
safeguarding objectives.
 Is the strongest variety of strapping and is
therefore used for the most demanding,
heavy-duty applications..

Steel high break strength provides reliability.

Strapping

The use of steel strapping is declining due to its

sharp edges that can cause a trouble and
recycling abilities.
 its common see polypropylene used in automated
strappers and light duty applications because it is
known for low break strengths, high elongation and
low recovery.

Polypropylene It is the least expensive of all strapping

material.

It is an economic material and easy to recycle

 can achieve high break strengths, handle high tension
and has great elongation and recovery.

It is used in heavy duty loads where initially

Polyester high tension is needed.

Another important detail is that polyester is

made mostly from pop bottles; it is both made
with recycled material and can be recycled.
Advantages & Disadvantages
Steel Strapping
 Advantages: Great strength, Low
elongation
 Disadvantages: Costly, Difficult to
recycle
Polypropylene Strapping
 Advantages: Cost effective, easy to recycle,
easy to use, elongation is good, lightweight
 Popular applications of polypropylene
strapping are: Bundling, Unitizing, Carton
packaging
Polyester Strapping
• Advantages: High strength, easy to recycle
• Disadvantages: Less elongation
• Popular applications are: Heavy pallet
loads, steel replacement
Cord Strapping
 Advantages: No need of tools to apply cord
strapping.
 Disadvantages: Difficult to recycle, poor elongation.
 Popular Applications Are: Agriculture, boating.
 Closing corrugated boxes and shipping containers.

Attaching items to pallets , skids, and boxes.

Securing a unit load of bricks, packaged glass, metal parts, etc.

Within hand tools there are manual and automatic tools.

Automatic hand tools are used for higher volume applications.

Manual tensioners and crimping systems are available for low

volume applications.

STRAPP GUARDS
 Main characteristics
• Ribbed channel stops strapping from
moving.
History
• The present invention
relates to a guard that
protects a strap from
fraying or cutting when
passing over the edge of a
load.
