HB Fuller, an Amazon Packaging Support and Supplier (APASS) certified supplier, is a recognised leader in the eCommerce packaging industry and provides Open Sesame opening tear tapes and Close-Sesame closing tapes that are efficiently applied with Enimac equipment.
“As the eCommerce packaging market begins its next wave of exponential growth, the agreement with Enimac strengthens our presence in the market by leveraging our performing tape and their application technology expertise to provide quality solutions and technical support to a wide range of packaging makers,” said Tania Montesi, HB Fuller global eCommerce Packaging business development manager.
Enimac was founded in 2013 by Biemme Adesivi Srl, who has 50 years of experience in tape application and converting. Located outside Milan, Italy, this industrial company works with tape converters worldwide to offer complete substrate bonding solutions, tape and automation, with the goal of decreasing costs and increasing productivity. Enimac designs, manufactures, and markets table-top and stand-alone machines to apply tape to sheets of paper and cardboard, tape applicators to integrate into machines and production lines, and complete custom tape application stations, modules, and systems.
“We look forward to partnering with HB Fuller,” Martin Buerger, Enimac vice-president, said. “By combining our application equipment with their portfolio of opening and closing tapes, we become a one-stop-shop for packaging makers, which will improve our customers’ experience.”
In addition to the company’s Close-Sesame closing tapes, HB Fuller recently launched Open Sesame fibre-based tear tape designed to promote sustainable eCommerce packaging. This first-of-its-kind, global, patent-pending innovation is validated on Enimac equipment and meets the plastic-free packaging goals of Consumer-Packaged Goods (CPG) brands and eTailers.
