End of line packaging solutions

‘End of line’ is a term used which describes either pallet wrapping, for distribution purposes, or cellophane overwrapping of a carton, for shelf ready presentation. One company who provide end of line overwrapping solutions and were present at UPAKOVKA 2013 was Marden Edwards Ltd.

A world leader in the design and manufacturing of wrapping and packaging machinery equipment, Marden Edwards Ltd used UPAKOVKA as an opportunity to demonstrate their latest Evo series overwrapper, presenting overwrapped tea cartons at speeds of up to 45 wraps per minute. Marden Edwards serve a range of industries, including food and beverage and have been doing so since 1961.

The Marden Edwards EVO overwrapper was demonstrated on ECI packaging Ltd stand, who are agents to Marden Edwards Ltd. ECI packaging Ltd is the leading supplier of packaging and processing equipment for food, chemical, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries.

Early indications are the show was a great success and Marden Edwards Ltd, along with ECI packaging Ltd, will be looking to exhibit at the next UPAKOVKA, so be sure to keep an eye out next time to see the latest developments in packaging and overwrapping technology.
