The goal was to find a film solution that would be both more cost-efficient and offer greater safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Solution: ATHS 20 Power Film<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>During testing, we introduced the ATHS 20 power film, which enables extremely low film usage without compromising packaging safety. The results exceeded expectations: the film usage dropped from 1820 g to just 450 g per pallet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Result: 70% Savings and Improved Security<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After implementation, the annual savings approached&nbsp;<strong>&nbsp;45.000 \u20ac<\/strong>, while pallet stability actually improved. This translates to a&nbsp;<strong>70% cost reduction<\/strong>, without the need to purchase a new machine \u2013 all it took was optimizing the film.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our partner in the heavy industry sector, specialized in granulate production, approached us with the goal of reducing packaging costs while increasing pallet stability and transport safety.
