How water bottles are packaged
Packaging with the sleeve wrapper machine is the production step that precedes the palletization of bundles and their shipment to the large-scale retail chains.
During this passage the bottles, once at the packaging machine, are divided into groups (generally to create 4 to 6 bottle packs) and then wrapped with shrink film, forming the so-called bundle. The bundles are, therefore, ready for the application of the handle with which to transport the water bottles to their destination.
The advantages of packaging with sleeve wrappers
This type of packaging not only allows you to have a more tidy warehouse, but carries several advantages:
- It allows to comfortably carry more bottles at the same time;

- It is possible to print shrink film with the graphics you want;
- It is easier to order the bottles on pallets for delivery and then expose them in the supermarket;
