Client:<\/strong>\u00a0Hungarian Detergent Manufacturing Company
Sector:<\/strong>\u00a0Chemical Industry \u2013 Household Cleaning Products
Technology:<\/strong>\u00a0Pre-stretch Pallet Wrapping (Synthesi Rotary Turntable Machine)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Challenge: High Unit Packaging Costs and Rising EPR Fees<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For years, the client had been using standard stretch film for pallet wrapping, handling around 60 pallets per day<\/strong>. On average, 530 grams of film<\/strong> were used per pallet \u2013 a practice that resulted in high packaging costs and increasing EPR (Extended Producer Responsibility)<\/strong> fees year over year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The company had two clear goals:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. To drastically reduce per-pallet film usage and packaging costs<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. To minimize the financial burden of EPR-related environmental fees<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Solution: Pre-stretch Wrapping Robot \u2013 On-Site Testing and Deployment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    The Manupackaging expert team provided a test-driven approach<\/strong> by demonstrating the benefits of pre-stretch technology using a mobile wrapping robot directly at the customer’s facility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The results spoke for themselves:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Film usage per pallet dropped from 530 g to just 133 g<\/strong>, resulting in a\u00a075% reduction<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Pallet stability remained excellent, and the robot consistently applied\u00a0the same amount of film<\/strong>, delivering full\u00a0cost predictability<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Following the successful demonstration, the company invested in a\u00a0Synthesi rotary turntable pre-stretch wrapping machine<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Results in Numbers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      The investment brought tangible benefits from the very first months:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Metric<\/th>Result<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
      Film per pallet<\/td>530 g \u2192 133 g<\/td><\/tr>

      Film reduction rate<\/td>75%<\/td><\/tr>
      Machine ROI<\/td>7 months<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      In addition, the company achieved:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • Lower environmental impact<\/strong>\u00a0thanks to less packaging waste<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Reduced unit cost<\/strong>, as each pallet receives the same amount of film<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Decreased EPR-related fees<\/strong>, supporting sustainability efforts<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Key Takeaway<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        This case study is a clear example of how a single strategic investment<\/strong> can bring substantial cost savings and environmental benefits<\/strong>. The automated pre-stretch wrapping technology<\/strong> not only improves packaging efficiency but also supports sustainable operations<\/strong> \u2013 which is no longer an option, but a modern-day expectation.
