Air Pillow Packaging

Air pillows are a type of packaging material that is used to protect and cushion fragile or delicate products during shipping and handling. In most cases, air pillow packaging is made from a thin, flexible film material that is inflated with air in order to create a soft, cushioned surface. In general, air pillows are lightweight, easy to use, and eco-friendly since they can usually be deflated after use and then recycled. And they are a product that is easily customizable.

When To Use Air Pillow Packaging

The use of air pillows often comes as an alternative to the more traditional packaging materials, like bubble wrap or foam peanuts. The most common use for air pillow packaging is to fill empty spaces in boxes or containers in order to prevent products and objects from moving around and damaging during transportation and shipping. In the best cases, air pillows will provide additional support and protection for products that are prone to damage, which includes glassware and electronics. The proper application of air pillows allows for safe transport during shipping.

Common Applications for Air Pillow Machines

Air pillow equipment is found and used in many different industries, including retail, logistics and e-commerce. When used properly, it provides a cost-effective and efficient way to protect and cushion products during shipping and handling. So if you are a business that ships delicate materials, then the use of air pillow packaging machines might be a wise investment. And due to its lightweight, the air pillows keep the cost of shipping down.

What is Inflatable Air Pillow Equipment?

Air pillow equipment is simply referring to the machinery and tools that are used to create and fill air pillows for packaging purposes. This type of equipment typically includes an air compressor and a machine that is designed to inflate air pillows. You can find different types of air pillow packaging, including at Preferred Plastics nd Pakcaging. We partner with Sealed Air to sell their air pillow machine. This machine comes with the latest features and benefits.

About Sealed Air Machine

From Sealed Air, they have a Fill-Air Rocket inflatable void fill system that works great and meets all of the modern demands of packaging and shipping. It is faster, simpler, lighter, and more prepared for your packaging operations. Let's take a look at some of these key features.

Unrivaled Speed

The Fill-Air Rocket system produces 100 feet of inflatable void fill cushions per minute and does so in a variety of sizes. It is fast enough to keep up with the most demanding packaging operations imaginable. During optimal usage, the system creates bags instantaneously and will operate at maximum capacity the moment it is turned on.

Simplified Operation

To use this machine, simply plug in and load Fill-Air Rocket system with film to blast off. No shop air is required to run this machine. Two new features will ensure further ideal operation:

  • Active film web tracking, which automatically improves the film feed.
  • Bag length detection, which stops the film in an ideal position every time.

These two new features guarantee consistent, optimally filled bags every time you use it.

Saves Valuable Space

This air pillow system has a compact footprint (less than 1.5 sq. ft.), which makes it perfect for tabletop placement in decentralized working environments. The system is fast enough to deliver packaging on-demand. However, material can also be batched into bins and delivered via Jet Stream delivery solution in order to feed multiple packers. An integrated, on-board, auto-replenishment sensor can be used to maintain a consistent supply of material at all times.

Recyclable and Reuseable

The elite sealing technology and material strength of this air pillow machine makes it highly reuseable. If material must be disposed, the air pillow packaging loses 99.3% of its volume when deflated. Making it very easy to recycle. Sealed Air is a partner with how2recycle.info and their bags can now be recycled at local store drop-off locations around the country. Simply visit how2recycle.info for more information about where these drop-off spots are located.

Versatile Film Options

These air pillows from Sealed Air are available in three widths (8", 10" and 12"). They can also be converted to two different cushion lengths, which ultimately creates six possible cushion sizes. By being able to customize the air pillows, it makes packaging and shipping easier. You can simply set up the machine for different applications and do so with ease.
