Plastic-free strapping
25 July 2024
COTTON TWINE machines from Antalis Packaging offer a natural alternative to traditional strapping.

Antalis offers a variety of machines in the range, giving flexibility to wrap a whole host of different products, from small nails and gifts to wooden planks. Common uses include strapping, bundling, retention, and even aiding presentation. They also aid safety as they do not have a ‘memory’, so they will not spring out of bins or off packaging, causing a tripping hazard on floors.
Twine machines use a twine-tying method that offers several advantages over traditional strapping. The cord is tied around the product or packaging, creating a secure bond without the need for additional sealing materials or machinery. The knot is also easy to open, eliminating the need for scissors.
Antalis packaging product manager Amy Skingsley, comments: “Twine solutions are available to suit different applications, product types, volumes, and budgets. There are also different cord colours, types and machine tensions to suit any product or application—elastic and rigid, thick and thin. This, combined with the sustainable benefits of using natural binding, low ongoing running costs, and relatively cost-efficient consumables, makes our twine wrapping machinery ideal whatever the end application.”
