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.
