STOROPACK is expanding its protective paper packaging portfolio with the launch of PAPERplus Dragonfly.
Based on the technology of the PAPERplus Papillon machine, it is designed for ‘fast and efficient’ void filling. Adjustable to three different speeds to suit the operator’s packing comfort, PAPERplus Dragonfly is said to produce between 160 and 200 feet of extra wide crimped paper pads per minute, ‘rapidly’ filling the box to hold down and secure goods for shipment.
Storopack revealed it is the only machine on the packaging market with a variable cushion density feature to create fluffy paper pads with adjustable volume as needed. This, the company added, allows for ‘optimal’ pack integrity in medium to large parcels weighing between approximately 11 and 22 pounds.
“PAPERplus Dragonfly is different, innovative and performs better than any other machine on the market,” said Paul Deis, paper product manager at Storopack. “There is no other system that can produce paper packaging with a comparable ‘fluffy’ volume. This reduces the amount of paper used in a box but still provides the best protection for the product.”
With no cutting system, the machine’s gears separate the paper. As with other PAPERplus machines, it can be incorporated into existing packing processes. The consumable is a two-ply fan-folded paper available in two densities and two bundle lengths, including a continuous feed bulk pallet option for larger volumes.
