Slide Rite introduces machine unit
It is compact, cost-saving and at the same time very efficient: the new machine unit SR-T100 for the processing of the patented reclosable system Slide-Rite® by the packaging specialist Pactiv (USA). „Because of its low investment cost the new developed SR-T100 unit will allow many companies to decide for Slide-Rite® resealable packaging”, explains Josef Honert, Marketing Manager Pactiv Slide-Rite® Products Europe.
“The market demanded a compact but at the same time efficient machine unit with an optimum cost-performance-ratio”, continues Josef Honert. The SR-T100 unit, which has been presented at the PackExpo at Chicago in October 2006, meets all these market requirements. With its very small footprint of around 1 m x 1 m it features a very high process speed during the integration of a Slide-Rite® slider closure into plastic pouches. “By virtue of the very wide range of our slider variations we are in a position to support a diversity of many different packaging solutions”, states Josef Honert.
Depending on the finishing the investment costs for SR-T100 range from 70,000 US$ for a standard system up to 90,000 US$ for the washodown version which is usually demanded by any food manufacturers. The SR-T100 is an easy to operate attachment. This new machine module is compatible with FFS-machines and bag-making machines for the processing of pre-made bags. This benefit opens up a wide range of applications.
The user-friendly Slide-Rite® reclosable system by Pactiv is characterized by an efficient handling, such as easy and secure opening and frequent reclosing. The variety of Slide-Rite® reclosure options allows to fulfill individual, customer specific and product optimized requirements. A further very important benefit is high recognition value, which stimulates the customers’ frequent demand for the product. The innovative concept increases the brand image and distinguishes the product from those of the competitors.
