SCA Packaging Germany has developed an 8-point glued pack with logistical and environmental benefits, for the launch of the new product assortment from tesa, ACXplus.
The corrugated box takes less time to be set up, has reduced use of materials and also underlines tesa's claim to have a particularly environment-friendly portfolio with the ACXplus range of adhesive tapes. ACX is a technology developed by tesa for solvent-free acrylic coating double-sided adhesive tapes.
SCA has developed the pack with automatic base. The box is erected and simultaneously, a core in the shape of a cross web forms from the material of the bottom flaps, serving as a holder for the adhesive rolls, which are better protected against slipping and damage.
The company focused on the quality of the tesa cartons, to achieve a second construction advantage. All pages are down by 90 degrees to the inside and glued, which results in a cardboard packaging that requires no visible cut edges.
SCA Packaging Germany sales & marketing director Carolyn Wagner said SCA Packaging's pack can emulate the success of the ecological value of tesa's ACX technology.
"The tesa project in particular shows that we do not leave it at the environmental benefits of corrugated packaging. The holistic view of all process steps often opens up additional opportunities. And they're put to optimal use at tesa's pack for ACXplus," Wagner added.
