Gluefast's
SKID-LOCK¬ Palletizing and Unitizing System
Gluefast’s SKID-LOCK®
palletizing and unitizing system is an efficient
and environmentally friendly way to palletize
and unitize products for distribution. Designed
to increase the stability of unitized pallet
loads, the SKID-LOCK® adhesive system
results in the reduction
or elimination of stretch wrap, strapping,
and corner boards. With a possible savings
of 50 percent or more due to reduced labor
and source reduction of packaging materials,
our SKID-LOCK® adhesive and application
equipment is the solution you have been
seeking.
So what makes
this palletizing and unitizing system so
efficient? The SKID-LOCK® Palletizing
and Unitizing System Consists of Three Easy
Steps:
- SKID-LOCK®, a water-based
Food Packaging Adhesive, is applied on
top of each item before being palletized
using one of three types of manual or
automatic adhesive
applicators.
- The packages are then
placed on the pallet or slip-sheet where
a unique adhesive bond forms that is high
in shear strength (to hold during the
side-to-side motion encountered during
transportation) and low in tensile strength
(up and down movement). If needed, stretch
wrap is then applied to the top two tiers
of packages.
- When the customer receives
the pallet, they simply pick the package
up to break the bond cleanly with no damage
to the packaging.
So what makes
this palletizing and unitizing system so
environmentally friendly? SKID-LOCK®
is a water-based, non-toxic adhesive that
leaves little or no residue, does not affect
the recyclability of your containers, and
produces no waste. All ingredients are FDA
approved for indirect food contact, and
suitable to use with packaged food products.
For more information, see our palletizing
and unitizing SKID-LOCK® adhesives.
So whether you need to
palletize or unitize corrugated boxes, brown
cartons, mottled white cartons, recycled
cartons, paper bags, plastic bags, or shrink-wrapped
items, the SKID-LOCK® Unitizing System
is sure to deliver damage-free products
with reduced packaging materials, saving
you a substantial amount of money in the
process. Unitize your load and facilitate
the loading, unloading, and inventory of
shipments while improving cargo security
against theft, pilferage, and damage.
