Rollguard® is your one-stop headquarters for high-quality roll cradles and reel packaging for coated film rolls that deliver superior protection at every phase of the packaging, shipping and warehousing process. Count on us to provide a solution that exceeds your expectations and adds significant value to your business.
The Challenges of Shipping and Handling Coated Film Rolls
Coated film is in high demand. This specialty film is coated with materials that provide an excellent barrier to moisture, oxygen and even strong aromas. Most often used to package food products, coated film ensures these items reach their target audience intact. The trick is getting this packaging material to the manufacturers who need it.
Coated film most often comes in rolls. If something happens during the shipping, handling or storage process, the rolls will not work as efficiently with the machines that produce the flawless packaging consumers expect.
Rollguard fiber cradles offer an excellent solution for coated film rolls. This material is especially susceptible to damage, such as tearing and crushing. The roll cradle’s efficient design creates a stable structure that allows each roll to support the roll below it without:
- Ovalization, a distorted oval shape caused by pressure from improper stacking
- Impact damage or indentations to the roll surface
- Friction between rolls that causes abrasions
The Benefits of Reel Packaging for Coated Film Applications
Preserve the quality and cleanliness of your coated film rolls with Rollguard. Packaging this material requires extra care to satisfy the highest industry standards. If you’re concerned about maintaining the integrity of your coated film, our roll cradles and reel packaging products provide numerous benefits.
Sanitary
Traditional cradles are made from treated wood that could leach onto the rolled coated film, potentially contaminating the material. Rollguard is made from recycled fibers that are naturally pest-free and don’t require chemical treatment. Plus, our clean packaging is free from splinters, sawdust and other contaminants.
Protection
Our products offer extra stability and security to safeguard your coated film rolls and prevent damage. Crafted from soft materials that cushion and designed to provide a secure, snug fit, our cradles minimize damage risks from impact, compression and surface abrasions. You’ll have more peace of mind knowing your customers’ shipments will arrive in peak condition.
Cost Savings
Rollguard cradles offer unparalleled efficiency, a characteristic that translates to cost savings. The unique nesting design minimizes packaging waste while maximizing the number of rolls you can fit on a pallet. The increased efficiency our reel packaging provides can significantly reduce shipping, storage and handling costs.
Easy to Unpack
Warehousing crews can unload rolls faster and with less hassle, saving valuable time and labor. Plus, special de-nesting hubs simplify the process of separating stacked cradles.
Easy to Ship
If you’re looking for the best way to ship cylindrical rolls of coated film, this is it. You’ll appreciate how our roll cradles streamline and simplify the shipping process while reducing the risk of damage. Rolls can be stacked compactly to fit more on a single pallet. The lightweight, foldable design allows for convenient handling and transport.
Environmentally Friendly
Rollguard believes in taking responsibility to help the world be a more environmentally friendly place. That’s why we manufacture our products with 100% recyclable and biodegradable materials. Once our cradles have been used for their intended purpose, recycle them with cardboard and other paper recyclables to send them back into the supply chain.
