BEMA LAB, THE LABORATORY DEVOTED TO THE GROWTH AND SHARING OF TECHNICAL EXPERIENCE
BEMA Lab represents the perfect synthesis between cutting-edge industrial reality and corporate values of sustainable growth. An in-house research and consultancy team tests wrapping and labelling recipes with the aim of developing the best tertiary packaging solutions for its customers, ensuring maximum load stability, total traceability and product integrity. These benefits arrive on top of a significant reduction in the packing material used, arriving to halve the quantity of film needed. For instance, to wrap a 4.4 feet-high pallet, only 0.15 pounds of a 12-micron film are needed.
Two systems check the load stability at different speeds and on different means of transport: the vibrating table for the simulation of transport by road, sea or rail and the bench for pallet acceleration and stability test complying with standard EUMOS 40509, which is a recognized standard applicable under European directive EU 2014/47 for load safety on the road.
In addition, a set of load cells is used to measure the containment force of the film on the product’s corners during the wrapping process. Therefore, inside BEMA Lab the E80 team test the stability of the various products and develop a custom wrapping solution, guaranteeing results to the customer over time.
