PACKAGING ADHESIVE
Packaging or over-packaging adhesive has several roles. Alsace Techniques Etiquetage is expert in printing and cutting this type of labels which must be able to inform the handler and the customer about the nature of the products and provide indications on the transport and storage conditions.
The nature, properties and shape of the adhesive are thus thought out in advance, depending on the product, the surface to be applied and the transport conditions.
Some adhesives will only be useful for a few hours, while others will last for the entire life of the product. The packaging adhesive also has specific characteristics for brand communication and acts as a marketing tool.
A VARIETY OF PACKAGING TAPE
Packaging tape often takes the form of rolls. This type of tape is available in a number of models, differing both in appearance and in their components and properties.
Whether it is to secure a package for handling or to communicate technical or commercial information, packaging tape by Alsace Techniques Etiquetage offers many advantages.
ADHESIVE HELPING LOGISTICS
Complete, smooth and fast tracking of packages is the key to efficient logistics. To optimise the flow of goods, logistics professionals use adhesive labels in many cases.
From the production line to the final delivery, the adhesive label guarantees the arrival of a package to its recipient. Whether pallets, transport crates or simple cardboard boxes, adhesives must be able to adhere to different types of surfaces.
They also need to withstand the rigours of handling so that they can be easily scanned at each stage of delivery by all the players in the distribution chain. For each logistics application there is a dedicated adhesive that facilitates and secures the transaction from one end of the chain to the other.
WHAT TYPES OF ADHESIVES ARE USED IN THE FIELD OF LOGISTICS ?
Logistics covers all the stages of a company’s material organisation.
Whether for internal use or for delivery, it is essential for companies to be able to ensure the safe and efficient moving of their products.
Adhesives can help meet this need through a variety of targeted applications. For example, order picking labels or pallet labels can be used to identify batches at each stage of transport.
