New Cabka Solutions Heading For Berlin’s Fruit Logistica
21st December 2016
Cabka-IPS will be showing the new version of its Twistlock Box and its new pallet Euro E7 at Berlin’s Fruit Logistica show between February 8-10.
The Twistlock Box is a popular folding box that is from now on available in the dimensions of 300mm x 400mm. It complements the previous 600mm x 400mm version.
The product has already proven its worth with the innovative click lock system Twistlock, which simplifies handling and enables quick locking and unlocking. This makes it much easier for users to set up and collapse the boxes. Loose and delicate products like fruits and vegetables are optimally protected. When folded, the box is only 28 mm high, permitting dense storage of empty boxes. In total, a semitrailer can carry 10,296 Twistlock Boxes, each measuring 600 x 400 – which cuts down on processing costs and reduces CO2. This is just one of the areas where the Twistlock Boxes are among the best on the market.
Another new product at the Cabka-IPS stand (Hall 21, B-03), is the Euro E7, the company’s newest pallet. It is claimed to bring together the best of two worlds as it offers the advantages of both wooden and plastic pallets. It was designed in a way that forklift pockets, deck height and blocks match the dimensions of an Euro-pallet. This allows for the seamless integration of the plastic pallets into storage and transport systems designed for handling standard wooden pallets.
The low follow-up costs (e.g., breakage, handling, transport, loss, and storage costs) of the Euro E7 and the associated high profitability are another big plus for users. The Euro E7 offers a long service life even with high circulation rates, fewer process downtimes, and thanks to its light weight, low transport costs. Sharp edges and wooden splinters, which can damage goods and conveyor systems, are now a thing of the past.
