The
ECO2 system is the latest innovation in the field of air cushion void
fill packaging.
The patented design features of the ECO2 provides packers with inexpensive
air cushions on equipment that requires no external compressor and is
fast, flexible and, most importantly, reliable. ECO2 produces continuous
streams of varying sized air cushions at a rate of 4 cubic metres per
hour. For packing lines that require a fast throughput, ECO2 can make
over 3000 cushions per hour.
ECO2 uses its own
internal air source.
This means that ECO2 is quieter, easier to move, requires less maintenance
and results in lower operating costs than systems using external compressors.
ECO2 cushions are heat sealed to the required length.
Strong heat seals ensure that cushions remain inflated during transportation.
Individual cushions are separated by perforations to enable the packer
to tear strips of ECO2 cushions to the required length.
ECO2 cushions are made from dedicated films that give maximum puncture
resistance and minimum permeability of the trapped air.
This ensures that the cushions will provide ample shock and impact
protection for the product being shipped, and also guarantees that the
cushions will not deflate in the carton.

"Customer
Friendly"
However the cushions are to be used, Green Light engineers will design a
handling system to meet your individual requirements. For low volume users,
portable stands are a quick and convenient way of moving the ECO2 machine
to any part of the warehouse where the packaging is required. Consumers
of larger volumes can use the stand with portable tote bins that can be
moved to different packing stations as required. For companies that use
a large quantity of void fill the preferred option is a tailor made pneumatic
handling system that is incorporated into the packing line. These systems
are designed, built and installed by Green Light engineers to meet the specific
objectives of the customer.
Significant
Cost Savings
ECO2 cushions are a particularly cost effective method of void filling.
95% of the ECO2 cushion is fresh air cost savings of up to 40% over paper
packing systems or polystyrene loosefill are common. Unlike some other
systems, ECO2 does not require pre - heat sealed film. ECO2 film is made
into a simple and inexpensive 20cm wide tube. This means ECO2 film is
easier to manufacture than pre-heat sealed film, allowing significant
cost saving to be passed on to the customer. This also means the packer
has the flexibility to select the correct cushion size to give the optimum
combination of performance and cost.
