NEW SAFESTRETCH PALLET WRAPPING SYSTEM SafeStretch
from Wessex
Packaging is an innovative stretch wrapping system with an ergonomic, easy-to-grip handle, and an automatic tensioning system which means that the operator is saved from bending and twisting his or her back while applying tension to the stretch fi lm around pallets. According to the HSE, back pain accounts for one in fi ve workplace injuries. With existing hand-held pallet wrappers, the operator must bend and twist the back while applying tension to the stretch fi lm. With the innovative new product, the operator remains in a straight position, and the chance of back injury is greatly reduced.
At less than £160, SafeStretch can often be purchased using a Health and

Safety budget, as it minimises the risk to operators’ backs. SafeStretch utilises a longer length (1,000m) roll which means fewer roll changes, lessening operator downtime.

conveyors together with an innovative dunnage belt and chute system for Clipper’s new Burton-on- Trent DC, which handles the full range of multichannel distribution solutions for Superdry. Almost all of the products stored are fl at packed in cartons, and therefore an interfl oor belt conveyor was required to move the cartons from the ground fl oor to and from the
three-tier mezzanine. There was also a requirement for a dunnage belt and chute system which would remove waste cardboard from each fl oor and transport it outside the building. Clipper’s Phil Houghton says: “This was a very aggressive installation with a short time span. LB Foster demonstrated
their fl exibility,
working closely with our mezzanine supplier, making design changes and resupplying drawings as required – it has been a great project.”
