The new TFS 216 uses cardboard roll stock to produce the flat, non-thermoformed base of the packaging, with the main benefit of not generating any cardboard waste.
The drag chains that are commonly used in most conventional thermoformers require part of the original width of the reel to be discarded.
The TFS 216 is equipped with an innovative bottom film traction system without chain, so the Leaf Skin packaging produced by our customers retains all of the base material, regardless of its width.
This solution is part of our ULMAweCare range of solutions, which are ultimately aimed at offering our customers more sustainable packaging solutions with a smaller environmental impact.
