Smarter waste handling: ppg > wegoflex sees immediate benefits<\/h2>\n

The ppg > group, comprising ppg > holding, ppg > wegoflex and ppg > flexofilm, is committed to meeting the flexible needs of their customers. With adaptable production processes and a focus on sustainability, they develop tailored packaging solutions to meet the growing demands of their markets.<\/p>\n

In 2023, Lundberg Tech partnered with ppg > wegoflex to optimise their waste handling process, aligning with their strong commitment to reducing CO2 emissions and improving their climate footprint.<\/p>\n

Kerstin Treder, Betriebsleiterin \/ Head of Production of ppg > wegoflex GmbH, shares her perspective on the collaboration:<\/p>\n

\u201cTo see the impact of a Lundberg Tech waste handling solution firsthand, we rented a WasteTech 140-140U in September 2023 to test on one of our slitters. The results were immediate. Encouraged by its success, we expanded the setup in December with a retrofit WasteCompactor 250. By February 2024, it was clear these solutions were making a real difference, so we purchased the rental units along with an additional WasteTech 140-140U for even greater efficiency.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

She continues, \u201cWith the ongoing positive impact, we further upgraded in September 2024 with a TrimCompactor 140-140U. Each addition has strengthened our waste handling process, proving these solutions essential to our operations.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

There are many reasons why companies invest in automated waste handling solutions.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ms Treder explains: \u201cBefore we installed the waste handling units, our waste trims were blown endlessly into large bags, which were difficult and dangerous to transport by forklift. Handling them was also time-consuming and inconvenient due to the low bulk density and frequent transport. The automated waste handling units eliminated these challenges.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

On the investment, Treder adds: \u201cThe payback time is 2-3 years, but the benefits are immediate \u2014 reduced waste volume, easier and fewer transports, improved recyclability, and less noise disturbance. Overall, it streamlines our process and makes waste handling much easier. This system is a perfect invention!\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

Lundberg Tech stands ready to support future waste handling needs, and further upgrades may soon follow.<\/p>\n

Ms Treder concludes: \u201cWe still have 2-3 slitters operating the old way, and our operators have already put automated waste handling on their wish list after seeing the improvements on the upgraded machines.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
