CUT PLASTIC WASTE AND COSTS WITH BETTER CASE SEALING
Experience cost savings, sustainability, and improved packaging performance with the ShurSEAL Solution.
WHY BETTER CASE SEALING MATTERS
Stronger case seals keep your products safe during transit, reducing waste and returns. The ShurSEAL Solution seals packages with less tape and less machine downtime, saving you money and helping you meet your sustainability goals.
BY THE NUMBERS
ShurSEAL delivers superior case seals while using 15% less tape than the average tape machine. This equates to an average savings of 2 full pallets of tape per year.
MEET YOUR SUSTAINABILITY GOALS BY ELIMINATING PLASTIC WASTE
Reducing tape consumption eliminates plastic waste: If you have sustainability goals related to reducing your amount of packaging waste ShurSEAL can help you meet them.
How ShurSEAL reduces tape waste: There are three ways that ShurSEAL optimizes tape usage while providing more secure and consistent seals:
- Gets the most out of each roll: Say goodbye to stub rolls. ShurSEAL pairs with Shurtape's performance hot melt and acrylic packaging tapes that utilize Good to the Core® Technology. These tapes run all the way down to the core without breaking or snapping. The result: less stub rolls for the trash.
- Utilizes right-sized tab lengths: ShurSEAL eliminates over-taping by providing tab length control to ensure the correct amount of tape is applied to each carton.
- Downgauge, thanks to better case seals: With ShurSEAL, you can reduce the gauge of your tape while still achieving superior case seals. This improvement stems from two key enhancements:
1. 14% stronger tape: ShurSEAL increases the strength of your tape with its Folded Edge Technology®. The machine folds the edges of the tape as it is applied to the box, and tests have shown this makes the tape less likely to tear.
2. Get more out of the tape’s adhesive: ShurSEAL uses flexible tape applicators that improve wipe-down force. This maximizes the use of the tape’s adhesive, giving the tape a stronger hold to the box.
BOOST PACKING LINE PERFORMANCE BY REDUCING DOWNTIME
The ShurSEAL Solution helps boost the performance of your packing line by reducing machine downtime.
- Spend less time retaping boxes that weren’t properly sealed the first time, thanks to improved case seals.
- Change over tape rolls less frequently by using packaging tape that runs all the way down to the core without breaking.
- Reduce tape tear-outs while the tape machine is operating. Folding the edge of the tape increases the strength required to break it. This means that the tape will tear less frequently during application, saving machine downtime.
SAVE MONEY ON TAPE, LABOR, AND DAMAGE
By combining the advantages of reduced downtime, less tape waste, and better case seals, the ShurSEAL Solution can save you money.
- Purchase less tape: By reducing tape consumption 15%, you’re not only achieving sustainability goals, but also cost savings.
- Reallocate labor thanks to less machine downtime. You can save up to 10 hours of labor each month that can be reallocated to more productive uses.
- Reduce product damage during shipping with superior carton seals that protect your products from damage, theft, and contamination during transit. By keeping your products safe, you eliminate the need for costly returns.
