IPG introduces the IMA Brand E-CO Flex SealMatic Fully Automatic Random WAT Case Sealer for e-commerce.

IPG® (Intertape Polymer Group®), a leading manufacturer of highly automated packaging machinery and turnkey solutions, has introduced the new IMA brand E-CO Flex SealMatic.

The E-CO Flex SealMatic is a fully automated case sealer to process FEFCO 201 (RSC) cases, automatically adjusting its mechanical movements according to the case size. It is equipped with sustainable water-activated tape (WAT) technology to seal cases on top and bottom at a high speed, up to 20 boxes per minute, without the need for operator intervention.

The machine can process an extensive range of case sizes, allowing the equipment to seamlessly adjust to the size of each case while closing the case top flaps. If a SIOC (Ships in Own Container) case is detected, the machine will automatically bypass it, to pass through the system without applying tape.

The E-CO Flex SealMatic can be outfitted with a variety of extra features. These include the ability to apply labels for hazardous materials (hazmat), print and apply shipping labels, and use quality inspection smart cameras to ensure proper flap folding, tape application, and tape leg length. The case sealer’s compact size allows it to be seamlessly incorporated into existing layouts with only minor modifications.

Berry Global Group, Inc. and Taco Bell are making strides toward a more circular approach to sustainable packaging with the launch of a new clear, all-plastic cup containing mechanically recycled post-consumer resin (PCR). The move represents progress by both organizations in meeting their publicly stated sustainability commitments: Taco Bell’s 2022 Commitments and Berry’s Impact 2025. Designed for circularity, the new, clear polypropylene (PP) cup will be testing in select Taco Bell U.S. restaurants in late 2022, with 30-ounce cups using 10% recycled, high-density polyethylene (HDPE). This conversion from Taco Bell’s virgin plastic cup and lid set will help divert waste from landfill and incineration while simultaneously improving its carbon footprint through the use of recycled plastic*.
