Riding the Summer Wave: Why Packaging Matters
- Exploding Demand: From farmers’ markets to supermarkets, watermelon sales surge by as much as 50–70% in the height of summer, creating a bottleneck for carton suppliers.
- Protection & Presentation: Watermelon cartons must be sturdy enough to prevent punctures and bruises yet lightweight and attractive to aid retailers in merchandising.
The Fengchi GW‑1450L Advantage
The GW‑1450L flute laminator is engineered precisely for high‑volume, premium‑quality corrugated packaging needs:
- Material Compatibility
- Surface Paper: Up to 230 g/m², providing a smooth, printable finish for bold, eye‑catching graphics.
- Flute Board: BE‑flute corrugated board, balancing cushioning (protection) and rigidity (stacking strength).
- Blistering Throughput
- Laminating Speed: Up to 10,613 sheets per hour, equivalent to 167.17 m/min of finished material—enough to keep even the busiest carton‑makers ahead of peak‑season orders.
- Seamless Line Integration
- Directly connects to a high‑speed, water‑based ink printing, slotting, and die‑cutting unit. This inline workflow eliminates manual transfer delays, reduces labor costs, and ensures perfect registration from print to final carton blank.
