KORRVU
Innovative, cost effective and easy to use, Korrvu packaging designs are engineered to satisfy your specific
packaging requirements with unique benefits that are plain to see.
Korrvu packaging safely holds your product in the centre of the
shipping container. These engineered packaging solutions keep your
product securely in place, protecting it from shock and vibration.
Compliments your product’s appearance by combining outstanding
protection and attractive presentation. Our Proprietary, resilient,
transparent films provide maximum visual appeal to make your
package a protective shipper and an effective display merchandiser.
If you ship a variety of similar sized items, chances are that the
versatility and simplicity of Korrvu packaging will accommodate a
one-size-fits-many-products solution. Because a single Korrvu
design can accommodate similar products with varying shapes, you
can reduce your packaging inventory.
Korrvu packaging stores flat, reducing storage and warehouse
requirements. Because Korrvu packaging requires no equipment
installation, no significant capital investment is required.
Korrvu packaging contains at least 30% recovered paper fibre and is
readily recyclable in corrugated hydrapulping operations. Korrvu
packaging is RESY approved for recycling in Germany and is reusable
for return shipments, minimising waste at both ends of the
distributor cycle.
Korrvu packaging suspends your product in the air space of the
shipping container between two layers of highly resilient low-slip
film. The patented design suspends your product away from impact,
providing consistent protection for fragile products even after
repeated drops.
Korrvu packaging holds your product securely within its proprietary
retention frame. This provides engineered protection for a wide
range of products that require shock protection during the shipping
cycle.

HEAT SEALING EQUIPMENT
A range of polythene bag sealers, industrial heat sealers, security
sealers, portable hand sealers and sack sealers.
Sealing widths from 16cm up to 77cm available as standard.
Impulse sealing machines use low voltage element wires which
heat up rapidly to a temperature which can weld plastic film in
seconds. The element then cools to allow molten film to set under
pressure before it is removed from the sealing jaws.
Machines are fitted with adjustable electronic timers to accurately
control the period during which the plastic is welded. Some
machines are also fitted with cooling timers to control consistency
of cooling time before removal from sealing jaws.
Impulse sealers can weld up to 1000 gauge polythene as standard
and other larger solenoid or pneumatically operated machines can
be manufactured to specific order.
Cutters are available on many models to trim surplus film or to
make bags from layflat polythene tubing.
Constant Heat Sealers use thermostatic controllers to maintain the
element bar at a selected temperature.
Constant Heat Sealers are ideal for laminated materials having
different melting points.
Modified wide seal elements for security coded seals and “cut and
seal” elements can be specified on selected machines.
A full range of accessories and spare parts available.
