How is E-commerce contributing to Cohesive Automated Equipment Demand?

End users are increasingly reliant on e-commerce platforms to avail supplies of their inventory. This trend has also pervaded the cohesive automated equipment industry. Increasing demand for safe and secure shipment of goods has spurred its sales via online channels.

Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, demand for various products surged exponentially across major end use industries. This subsequently led to a call for deploying highly safe and secure packaging solutions. Hence, automated system applications to manufacture packaging boxes, envelopes and other formats increased, generating demand for cohesive automated equipment.

According to estimates in a UNCTAD report published in May 2021, there was a dramatic rise in e-commerce amid movement restrictions induced by COVID-19 increased online retail sales’ share of total retail sales from 16% to 19% in 2020. Manufacturers are focusing on launching customized and smart packaging solutions and automated packaging equipment that can integrate with warehouse management systems (WMS).

For instance, Pregis announced the launch of, the IntelliPack® SmartBagger™ which creates customized foam protective packaging for order fulfillment operations dealing with high-value, fragile merchandise. Operators can use it to mix two components together in a bag that immediately begins to expand into foam.

The foam can be molded around products and conform to the shape of parcels for universal cushioning and tight blocking and bracing. The machine is equipped with the Maxwell Intelligent Interface, which can track metrics such as material use, throughput, and other valuable KPIs.

How is Cold Seal Cohesive Coated Protective Packaging Driving Demand?

Cohesive automated equipment encapsulates the product that is supposed to be packed in a cold seal cohesive coated protective packaging, by locking in the product at the right place and only using the required amount of raw materials to packing that specific product. 

This machine dramatically reduces the time period to pack one product, labor costs, operational costs, increases order consistency and increases operational performance. Increasing uptake of cold seal cohesive protective packaging is due to its heat insulation and aroma retention properties. Moreover, the rises in per capita income and growing health concerns in developed economies are some of the other trends driving the demand in the market.

In addition, manufacturers are emphasizing on sustainability as the major factor to launch a new range of packaging equipment. In December 2020, Henkel announced the expansion of its RE range, which is “designed for recycling,” to include both hot- and cold-sealable coatings for paper. According to Henkel, the products are certified as paper-recycling compatible and allow a new range of packaging designs.
