Christmas is not just a time of peace and joy – in the packaging industry, it is primarily a time of intense packaging, shipping, and process optimization. In December, companies around the world rely on high-quality packaging materials, packaging machines, strapping technologies, and stretch films to handle the rush of orders and ensure that every package arrives on time and safely.
That is why this period is ideal for reminding ourselves of the important role played by modern packaging and how W rent can help companies streamline their production and logistics.
Why is packaging material crucial during Christmas?
Every gift, every product, every package passes through the hands of packers and packaging lines.
The greatest pressure is experienced by:
- cardboard packaging and boxes
- protective fillings (bubble wrap, foam fillings, paper fillings)
- stretch film for palletizing
- adhesive tape and rubber or steel binding straps
- PET and PP straps for secure load securing
Without them, thousands of shipments would be lost, damaged, or simply fail to arrive on time.
Automated packaging: Christmas helper number 1
Modern packaging machines, strapping machines, packaging lines, automatic wrapping machines, and palletizing technology are the basis of holiday logistics today.
These technologies:
- speed up the packaging process by up to 50–80%,
- reduce error rates,
- minimize the consumption of packaging material,
- increase the safety of transported products.
And this is where W rent, the leader in packaging solutions in Slovakia, comes into play.
