SEE (formerly Sealed Air) has announced an expansion of its range of automated e-commerce packaging systems with the launch of the SEE AUTOBAG brand 850SP – a compact fulfilment system for paper stream mailing bags.
Designed to work with the range of AUTOBAG brand all-paper recycle-ready bags, the system is said to provide retailers with sustainable packaging on a high-speed machine for mail order fulfilment and e-commerce tasks.
AUTOBAG brand 850SP can open, label, and seal up to eight bags per minute. It also offers optional resealable capabilities for mailing bags, allowing consumers to reuse the same packaging for product returns to minimise waste and improve packaging recyclability.
SEE explained that the system’s high-speed performance is achieved with ‘easy to use’ bag threading for ‘fast and efficient’ product changeover, while next-bag-out printing prevents product queuing and reduces waste material.
AUTOBAG brand 850SP prints high resolution shipping labels directly on the bags, reducing the requirement for a separate labelling operation, and has been designed for packaging single and multiple orders of products.
The system can be integrated into a packaging network system to facilitate centralised monitoring and deliver productivity information in real time.
Ingo Lublow, EMEA director protective & equipment marketing at SEE, said, “The demand for buying goods online has grown rapidly in recent years. At the same time, retailers have had to adapt fulfilment processes to meet new sustainability requirements and drive efficiencies to manage production and labour costs. AUTOBAG 850SP answers these challenges. The system delivers a high-quality and high-speed solution that streamlines mail order fulfilment and packaging processes, to support sustainability goals.”
