Whether it´s the well-being of your employees or the protection of the environment, you as an entrepreneur or plant manager bear a double responsibility. Especial-ly in daily logistics processes, this represents a huge challenge. After all, every packaging activity is not only subject to ergonomic and environmental requirements; each solution must also be examined to ensure that it is genuinely cost effi cient and practical.

Whether in industry or in online commerce: No two packaging requirements are the same. Instead specifi c solutions are required that optimally correspond with your individual situation. It has been shown time and again: Every packaging solution is only as good as the analysis that precedes it. Asking the right questions gives

What is required is a process optimization that takes all key factors into account while giving you the greatest possible freedom in your business routine. Machines and packaging modules that work for the long-term because they can deal with a wide range of differing requirements. Those customers who demand easily operated and cost effective standards and those who want a custom-made concept, preconfi gured for their specifi c packaging situ-ation.

Another point is that each new packaging task also chan-ges the requirements on the packaging station; therefore your packaging solutions themselves must be extremely fl exible. The air cushion packaging that is consistently ad-opted by FLOETER has a very special signifi cance in this

you an automatic head start. Which products have to be shipped? Are there any specifi c protection requirements? And how will the goods be handled?

At FLOETER, we look into these issues especially close-ly. The important thing is to look carefully at your prod-ucts and what you want to do with them. Depending on how big, heavy or sensitive your merchandise is, on whether few or many shipments have to be packed and forwarded, it can be defi ned how your ideal packaging process should look and how the packaging material is to be used. The priority clearly lies on the protection of your products and maintaining their quality – another factor is our ambition to fi nd an especially effi cient solution for you. Ultimately, although the packaging should protect, it should not itself become a major cost factor.

context. The idea is that light, thin fi lms are much easier to work with that heavy, bulky material – when wrapped in the right fi lm type with air pillows, you know that your merchandise is economically and effectively protected when you ship it out.

Whether in online mail order and in manufacturing indus-try, each packaging type must be suitable for both pro-duct and for shipping. It is on this basis, that FLOETER has developed packaging solutions that leave nothing to chance, but are designed from packaging material to ma-chine confi guration to meet your requirements: holistic, customized and carefully conceived. Why not simply put us to the test?

SOLVING PROBLEMS MEANS UNDERSTANDINGIT BEGINS WITH YOUR NEEDS

6 7

Firstly: We lead the way.For more than 20 years now, FLOETER has been the lead-ing specialist in high performance air cushion systems and systematic shipping solutions.

Long before our competitors, we realized that air cushion packaging was the future. Air cushion systems are suit-able for every packaging task, are easy to operate and are easily integrated in existing processes. For you, this not only means maximum fl exibility in your everyday busi-ness, but also that you keep a handle on costs. Today and beyond. Because with air cushion systems it is not only possible to minimize the need for various types of boxes; they also ensure that your packaging stations are easily extensible. The consequence: you save! Time, storage ca-pacity and above all, money.

Secondly: We provide holistic solutions.At FLOETER we do not sell individual machines or packag-ing materials, rather we offer integrated solutions that are completely tailored to your individual requirement profi le. Small, handy tools that are simple to operate, low mainte-nance, robust and reliable and that can easily and fl exibly

be replaced if required. The basis is support that always also includes comprehensive advice on your company premises and in our demonstration center. The packaging stations are precisely confi gured in accordance with your requirements.

Correctly installed and synchronized, the packaging pro-cess not only runs safely and reliably but is also quickly. The material storage silos make an important contribution to this. If required, several packaging stations can be op-erated in parallel with air cushions – for cost optimized packaging throughput and a high degree of automation.

Thirdly: We accompany you in all your projects.Nothing is as constant as change. Therefore at FLOETER we have turned it into standard practice to constantly support our customers with innovative developments. This opens up for you the opportunity to select from a wide range of state-of-the-art machine, fi lm and packag-ing station systems, which put you in a position to turn new market demands into your competitive advantage – always combined with the safety of your employees and the protection of your products.

Last but not least: A win for your employees – and the environment, too.It takes satisfi ed employees to really make your business succeed. That is why FLOETER regards itself as a pioneer in “employee satisfaction at the packaging station”. We build the kind of machines that your employees would wish for. Machines that simplify the logistics process and are easy to operate completely intuitive and without re-

quiring much training. Machines that work in step with people – and not the other way round. FLOETER pack-aging systems are suited for every packaging task, can be integrated in every packaging station situation and embody our principle of “carefully conceived packaging solutions”. Thus FLOETER systems can help to further op-timize your workfl ow by making it possible to replace ma-terial rolls in a matter seconds. That not only makes it an ideal partner in the team, with the innovative air cushion systems from FLOETER, your employees have the feel-ing during packaging that they are doing something good for the environment.

The FLOETER air cushion systems fulfi ll the required statutory standards and regulations. Furthermore, FLOETER is certifi ed under ISO 9001:2008 and uses the environmental management system as per DIN EN ISO 14001:2004.

THE PACKAGING MATERIAL OF THE FUTUREIN THIS WAY WE IDEALLY INTEGRATE AIR CUSHIONS

Space fi lling

Don´t pay money for empty space!

According to a market survey, half of

all shipped box volumes are fi lled with

empty space. In fact, hollow spaces

can be intelligently fi lled with air cush-

ions to avoid breakages.

Immobilization

Mail order shipping centers all over the

world work with automatic conveyor

systems. If the merchandise can slide

to and fro, it is not secure within the

packaging and the entire box may fall

off the conveyor belt. The solution: air

cushions!

Edge protection

As a replacement for EPS molded

parts, air cushions are very suitable

for use as corner guards. Their

advantages compared with polysty-

rene: They protect the environment

and are impact absorbent.

Liners

Is your merchandise “in good shape”?

Flat products such as picture frames,

books or ceramics can be better

protected against transport damage

by fl exible interlining layers.

Surface protection

Not only “superfi cially considered”

the right choice! You ship merchandise

that is sensitive to scratching? Then

you are defi nitely on the safe side with

air cushions made of soft polyethylene.

Wrapping

No other packaging material is as

fl exible as an air cushion mat.

It fi ts perfectly to every form and

reliably protects against breakage.

Thus literally nothing can befall your

merchandise.

Cross wrapping

The six sides of a box can be reliably

protected with only two lanes of air

cushion mats. The ideal wrapping

for electronic devices and medical

instruments.

Roll troughFOR EASY STORAGE

If you are considering the coiler solution, you should take a clos-er look at the roll trough. It will keep your mat rolls free of dust and prevents them from unroll-ing accidentally. It can also be in-stalled overhead at the packing station.

The large roll coilerFOR PRODUCING ENDLESS MATS

Ideal in combination with the

roll trough, the coiler allows the

production of endless rolled

sheets of the cushion mats of

series 8.x at an ideal height for

grabbing.

Docking stationFOR DISTRIBUTED USE

Here is where your AirWave

shows what it can do. No vol-

ume is too large for a fast fi lling.

The rolling containers are fi lled

one after another thanks to the

fast operation and are immedi-

ately available and mobile.

Mobile table solution WITH AND WITHOUT TELESCOPING LIFT

Bring your machine to the ideal

working height. This allows you

to produce with intermediate

storage to buffer and prevent

bottlenecks at peak times. The

docking station also works well

with this.

Rolling containerWITH FULL SENSORS

The rolling container is mobile

and always brings your air

cushions to the ergonomically

correct working height. They

can be simply picked up rather

than continually bending over.

AirWave overhead solutionFOR AUTOMATION OF PRODUCTION

Place the air cushions at an

ideal height for grabbing while

also creating more space and

freedom at the packing sta-

tion. With Bluetooth control,

sensors and lifting column.

Perfect ergonomic oordination.

Jumbo roll holderFOR LARGE DEMANDS

Up to 2000 meters on a single

role? No problem with the

jumbo roll holder. Produce large

quantities of air cushions with

few roll changes. Ideal for all

container and overhead solu-

tions.

MOBILE UNITS

The situation:A customer who manufactures and markets pro-motional articles told us about large seasonal fl uc-tuations in his business. At peak times 20 machines were required for the packaging process, at off-peak periods he could manage with only four machines.

Our recommendation:We advised him to mount four machines on wheeled containers which – depending on the work-load – could be easily moved between the packag-ing stations. In addition, the wheeled containers are equipped with optical sensors ensuring that there is always enough packaging material available.

The result:With only four machines mounted on wheeled con-tainers, the customer covered his requirements for packaging material over all seasonal fl uctuations. With our solution he was also able to dispense with twelve machines and save 40 m2 of space.

The situation:Due to growth of its business, a marketing organiza-tion for animal feed wanted to automate its packag-ing process and at the same time make more effi -cient use of fl oor space.

Our recommendation:We recommended the installation of a machine with a lifter unit over the conveyor belts so that a large enough fi lm buffer was available for the increasing work peaks. A double cage device installation was designed that supplied a total of four workplaces with two machines.

The result:The customer was able to dispense with a total of 16 machines and save 45 m2 of fl oor space. At the same time, the customer noted a permanent im-provement in the working ergonomics.

The situation:A leading fashion mail order company that besides conventional retailing via city stores also offered its merchandise on the internet reported a rapid growth in its online business. In order to remain fl exible in the context of steady growth, it looked for a way to serve as many workplaces as possible with the minimum number of machines. At the same time, the machines should be compact and be easily inte-grated in existing processes.

Our recommendation:We advised 8 square overhead units – each equipped with an internally running machine to sup-ply a total of four workplaces. The width and lengths of the cushioning material was to be especially pro-duced for the customer´s requirements. In addition the project plan made provision for the integration of material buffer units in the existing process infra-structure.

The result:A total of 64 workplaces are now supplied by 16 machines. Furthermore, the cushioning material that was especially adapted to the customer boxes ena-bled a saving of 30% in polyethylene.

SUSTAINABILITYOUR COMMITMENT TO THE ENVIRONMENT

PACKAGING WITH AIR –THE ULTIMATE IN ENVIRONMENT FRIENDLINESS

When you decide to use FLOETER packaging sys-tems, you automatically decide for the protection of our environment. Because the bottom line with 99% air and only 1% fi lm is an almost 100% reduction in environmental impact.

The latest generation of FLOETER systems is able to process fi lms with a thickness only 20 μm. This can save many tonnes of CO2 emissions that would otherwise be generated in the production of heavy packaging materials. Furthermore, the disposal channels for polyethylene are well established. The plastic residues obtained during recycling can be used to make new and durable products.

By the consistent reduction of the ratio of packaging material, we have succeeded in partnership with our customers to achieve a sustained reduction in envi-ronmental impact.

At FLOETER, however, environmental protection begins at a much earlier stage. Even at the product development stage, the environmental approach is uppermost in our minds. Thus we optimize our tech-nologies until we can present products that always maintain an optimum balance between product pro-tection and environmental compatibility by minimiz-ing energy inputs, reducing fi lm thicknesses and the lowest possible noise generation.

We have noticed something important in the course of many meetings with customers and through the pres-ence of our technicians at the customer premises: A lot of equipment is still being used in packaging processes that no longer meet modern requirements for ergonomic working conditions.

For this reason, FLOETER engineers have developed a power tool that your employees will prefer to work with and will actually increase their motivation. An ergonomic and safe work process increases worker satisfaction and will also save you time and money.

OUR VISION & OUR VALUESWE´RE PACKING EXPERIENCE!

Commercial approach

Without a commercial approach, there is no basis for growth,

securing jobs and no independence. But only when everyone

– both management and staff – consistently support the com-

pany objectives can we continue to look forward to success

in the future. Therefore we communicate the actual status as

well as the defi ned objectives and thus enable every individual

to follow the company´s development and to contribute his/her

best to drive it forward.

Continuous improvement

If you stop asking questions, you stop being good. We

therefore take it very seriously when existing processes are

questioned with the objective of fi nding a better solution and

support our employees in implementing ideas that move us

forward. We are also prepared to learn from our mistakes.

Clear management responsibility

Management means point out the path that together we

should follow. For our management, it also means being con-

sistent at all times and in all situations to provide all staff with a

steady guide. Managers should be respected as loyal persons

who also have the backbone to take unpopular yet unavoidable

decisions. Like a strict but fair coach who both nurtures and

makes demands.

The implementation of our vision

Even brilliant visions often lose their way in the grey routine of

everyday business. All of us – the executive board, managers

and each individual employee – nonetheless never lose sight of

the big picture and endeavor in everything we do to implement

it. In the process, we never forget that we still have a way to

go. Even if, every day it becomes a little shorter.

Open communication

A company that does not communicate its decision making

processes or its decisions cannot hope to be successful in the

long term. Therefore we talk to each other. Directly. Openly.

Responsibly. Our meetings are not get-togethers for small talk

in the breaks. They form the binding basis for action in order to

meet the challenges that we set ourselves every day.

OUR VISION ...

... of FLOETER is a creative,

worldwide-active and

socially recognized

service provider in the fi eld

of environment friendly

merchandise distribution

between customer and

consumer.

Consistent teamwork

Four good team players are worth more than forty individu-

als. Because only if we pool the individual strengths of the

individual employees can the resulting overall performance be

maximized. The consequence: Shared success increases the

appetite for greater performance. Team spirit, fairness and tol-

erance are therefore not nice-to-have´s for us, but must-have´s.

Open-mindedness

If you have not yet accepted that the rest of the world matters,

you have not seen the signs of the times. We live up to the

ideals of open-minded thinking and actions with the tolerance

and respect to wich all people and markets all over the world

are entitled. We promote and expect collaborative partnership

and understanding for others who look or sound different. The

desired and realized mobility of many of our employees who

are successfully involved in international business is only one

example.
