High Efficiency. Low Cost.

Engineered Together into SEW’s Popular New DR Series.

Meets NEMA & IEC Standards: The DR motor meets and exceeds international energy standards and comes in two efficiency levels: DRE High Efficiency (IE2), and DRP Premium Efficiency (IE3), which meets EISA 2007 and NR Can Energy efficient standard (CSA C390). The DR motor meets the specifications of NEMA MG1-2006 part 31.4.4.2, regarding voltage spikes and IEC Design H standards.

Increased Power: SEW offers more compact copper-rotor variants of the DRE and DRP induction motors in addition to the traditional aluminium-rotor motors-thereby reducing losses in the rotor, and consequently allowing for increased power within one frame size.

Export Friendly: The DR Motor is available in metric formats for international export.

Fail-Safe Brake: DR Motors offers an integrated mechanical fail-safe brake that is applied when a power failure occurs.

It is an electromagnetic, springloaded brake powered by DC voltage via a rectifier. The brake can also be released mechanically with either an automatic or manual brake release.

Integrated Encoder: The new built-in encoder is fully integrated into the motor, making it more compact and less expensive. The encoder is installed between the end shield and the fan and is connected at the terminal box, so it can be easily retrofitted.

Versatile Mounting Options: Now offering new mounting capabilities.

The motor can be foot-mounted and/or flange-mounted with numerous throughhole or tapped-hole configurations. A NEMA C flange is also available.

Three Brake Sizes: As a cost saving feature DR Motors are available with a choice of up to three different brake sizes per motor size.

Washdown Resistant: Rated up to IP66, the DR series can be built to withstand the rigours of harsh washdown environments.

They can be also supplied with a forced cooling option.

SEW-Eurodrives’ DR Series of AC motors have been engineered from the ground up to meet the motor demands of the 21st century for continuous or long-running drive applications: like high efficiency performance that complies with international standards; a compact footprint that saves space; a modular design that features a detachable foot design to provide the same excellent braking performance but now in a stand-alone brakemotor configuration; and a simple, built-in encoder that can be easily retrofitted. What’s more, these versatile motors are integratable into SEW gearmotors, used as stand-alone motors or into decentralized control architectures.

o welcome to the much-anticipated 2012 dear reader—arguably the most eagerly awaited calendar change since the arrival of Y2K or 1984, for the more mature (and more literary) crowd amongst our midst.

Say what one may about the ancient Mayans’ morbid fascination with the date, it’s been it’s been a pretty wild ride on many different levels so far, and not all for the better. For some long-established iconic brands that many of us grew up with—Kodak and Hostess quickly springing to mind—it’s already been downright apocalyptic, once again proving the overriding importance of embracing change before it squeezes the life out of you.

And nowhere is this truism more self-evident these days than in the global packaging industry, where profound new technological and social trends (sustainability anyone?) are rapidly transforming the way today’s product packaging is conceived, designed, manufactured, used and discarded, according to life-long packaging industry insider Ben Miyares, packaging market trends analyst with the Packaging Management Institute and a long-serving spokesman for the venerable Packaging Machinery Manufacturers Institute (PMMI).

Speaking at the recently-held Machines NOW conference in Orlando (see more on page 22), Miyares offered an insightful vision of what constitutes “effective” packaging machinery capable of satisfying a multitude of new customer and consumer requirements sprung up over the last several years.

According to Miyares, contemporary packaging equipment must be: • Functional, robust and durable; • Economical, meaning “not just the price, but in the context of the total cost of ownership”; • Conservative, in a sense of “conserving materials and energy to extend the utility of the available resources”; • Autonomous, “to the extent that they can operate without operators”; • Self-conscious, as in being able to understand the material inputs and being able to adjust on-the-fly to variances of different materials; • Appropriately sophisticated. “You want a bottling line that a guy with a wrench could fi x if necessary, not an electronics engineer.”; • “Apromorphic, defi ned by Miyares as “having the ability to do more than one thing, like fi lling both six and 16-ounce, different-shaped containers.”

Ultimately, Miyares summed up, “This all points to the development of packaging equipment that my grandmother could operate, with nonproprietary controls, simplified/streamlined operations, automation software, onboard troubleshooting cameras, dashboard operator interfaces, and increasingly automated changeover.”

Now that’s a future we could all get behind; how soon is now?

NOTHING HALF-BAKED ABOUT NEW PACKAGING

Having your fingers in many different pies is nothing new for Canada’s highly diversified food processor Maple Leaf Foods Inc., whose latest addition to its venerable Tenderflake brand of frozen, ready-tobake pastries—said to be the first in more than five years—promises to make the art of making a delicious pie at home, well, as easy as pie.

Launched across Canada’s leading grocery stores just before the end of 2011, the fittingly-named Easy Pie! kits—available in Double Crust and Crumble Topping versions—provides busy home chefs with everything they need, except the fruit and/ or berry filling to bake a professional-looking pie creations in only 30 minutes by eliminating the need to make pie-shells from scratch, according to the Torontoheadquartered Maple Leaf Foods.

“We’re excited to introduce Easy Pie!, the fi rst new product in the frozen ready-to-bake pastry category in over five years, to Canadians,” says Kelly Gervin, Maple Leaf ’s vice-president of marketing for North American retail and foodservice business.

“We regularly hear from consumers who tell us they don’t have time to make meals and desserts from scratch, so they’re looking for products that help them prepare delicious food in a more convenient way,” adds Gervin.

“Our new Easy Pie! products makes the time out of pie-making from scratch so that Canadians can do more of what matters most—spending time with their family and friends.”

Packaged in high-graphic folding cartons designed by Pigeon Branding + Design and supplied by the Waterloo, Ont.-based package converter Beresford Box Company, Inc., the Easy Pie! kits are assembled at the Concord, Ont.-based plant of the Canada Bread Company—90-percent owned by Maple Leaf Foods—which also produces the six-inch frozen pieshells contained in the kits on-site, along with the pie-top layer included in the Double Crust recipe.

The kits also include packets of spice and crumble mix (Crumble Topping variety only) supplied by Newly Weds Foods Co. of Mississauga, Ont., as well as aluminum pie tins from the Toronto-based Novelis Foil Products and parchment paper sheets from De Luxe Produits De Papier Inc of Montreal.

“Ideal for serving two to four people, this innovative addition to the brand’s line of ready-to-bake products provides consumers with yet another smart baking solution that they have grown to expect from the Tenderflake product family,” says Gervin, noting the Tenderflake brand’s approaching 70-year anniversary next year.

Said to be priced in line with other mainstay Tenderflake brand frozen pastry products—including Pie Shells, Deep Dish Pie Shells, All Vegetable Shortening Deep Dish Pie Shells, Tart Shells, MiniTart Shells, Patty Shells and Puff Pastry— the Easy Pie! kits are currently retailed by all Walmart Supercentre stores across Canada, as well as at: • Loblaws, Zehrs, YIG, Fortino’s and Valu-mart outlets in Ontario; • Métro, Loblaws, Sobeys, Provigo and L’Intermarche supermarkets in Quebec; • RASS/SuperValu grocery stores throughout the Maritimes region.

ROBUST GROWTH FORECAST FOR ASEPTIC PACKAGING IN U.S. MARKETS

end-use market for aseptic packaging in the U.S for the forecast period— rising by 8.4 per cent annually to US$3.4 billion by 2015.

These gains “reflect the broadening availability and consumption of biotechnology-based drugs, and aseptic fi lling requirements with other liquid pharmaceuticals.

“Additionally, opportunities will be driven by preferences among healthcare providers for unit-dose delivery formats,” according to The Freedonia Group.

“Prefillable syringes will represent the fastest-growing aseptic packaging prodU.S. ASEPTIC PACKAGING DEMAND (US $MILLION) % Annual Growth uct type through 2015, with demand ITEM 2005 2010 2015 2005-10 2010-15 projected to expand 11.0 percent yearly Aseptic Packaging Demand 2,155 3,490 5,120 10.1 8.0 to $1.1 billion,” the study states.

“The ongoing commercialization of biotechnology-based drugs will fuel aboveaverage demand growth for aseptic vials and ampules, and prefi llable syringes, which are prevalent delivery systems for these drugs.”

For their part, U.S. food-and-beverage producers will also increase their use of aseptic packaging technologies during the forecast period, albeit at a slower pace, the report cautions: “Advances will be moderated by the high capital investment of aseptic processing equipment and the reluctance of food and beverage firms to shift away from highly efficient hotfill and retort processing operations.”

According to The Freedonia Group, the dairy products segments will drive most of the demand gains in the food-and-beverage sector due to the aseptic technology’s superior shelf-life performance and the ability to move the product through the supply chain unrefrigerated, “Gains in the food market will be driven by shelf-stability advantages, as well as by expanding applications in liquid, low-particulate and pumpable foods, often via the replacement of metal cans and glass jars,” the study notes.

“However, growth for aseptic packaging in the beverage market will be restrained by the maturity of the fruit beverage market, expectation among U.S. consumers for chilled milk, and competition from hot-fi ll packaging, which has a well-established base.”

While the stalling North American economy continues to cloud near-term prospects across a broad range of packaging markets, annual demand for aseptic packaging products in the U.S. is expected to soar by an average of eight per cent in coming years to surpass the US$5-billion threshold by 2015, according to a new report from Cleveland, Ohio-based market research consultants The Freedonia Group projecting “well above the overall packaging average” growth for suppliers of aseptic packaging products and machinery.

“Growth will be driven by drug sterility requirements and ambient distri-

bution and storage advantages for food and beverages,” states the report, forecasting U.S. market demand of US$5.1 billion by 2015 “Specifically, the increasing availability of biotechnologybased injectable drugs necessitates aseptic fi lling and packaging as such drugs tend to be heat-sensitive, making the high heat used in terminal sterilization processes unfeasible.”

Already accounting for 64 per cent of total market demand in 2010, pharmaceuticals will remain the largest single

TETRA PAK WON’T REST ON PAST GREEN LAURELS

Staying at the top of the curve is said to be always harder than getting there, but that doesn’t seem to phase anyone at the Richmond Hill, Ont.based aseptic packaging supplier Tetra Pak Canada Inc., which gathered a multitude of impressive milestones and well-earned accolades in the area of packaging sustainability last year, including: • Winning the 2011 Best Green Consumer Product honors in the GLOBE Awards for Environmental Excellence competition of the GLOBE Foundation; • Picking up the Silver Award in the 2011 PAC Sustainable Packaging Awards competition of PAC-The Packaging Association; • Taking a Silver Award for sustainable product or service in the 2011 Waste Minimization Awards competition of the Recycling Council of Ontario (RCO).

“The year 2011 was a landmark year for Tetra Pak in Canada, and we are proud of our many successes,” says Elisabeth Comere, director of environment and a government affairs at Tetra Pak Inc.’s North American headquarters in Vernon Hills, Ill. “We helped found an industry association, Carton Council of Canada, which is dedicated to increasing carton recycling rates; actively supported away-from-home recycling programs in Quebec; promoted waste reduction programs and carton recycling at schools across Ontario and Quebec; and earned industry recognition for our Tetra Recart packaging innovation.

“We will continue to invest in innovative thinking and work hard to realize our ultimate aim to provide Canada and the world with packaging solutions that only use renewable materials and where every Tetra Pak carton will be recycled,” states Comere, citing the company’s recently-unveiled global 2020 strategy aimed at capping the company’s

10 • WWW.CANADIANPACKAGING.COM

carbon emissions at 2010 levels, while doubling the recycling rate of its used beverage cartons.

“Environmental efficiency has always been at the heart of Tetra Pak’s strategy because it is critical to both business performance and to society as a whole,” Comere explains, “and we remain deeply committed to delivering solutions that achieve sustainable profitable growth for both Tetra Pak and our customers.”

While an estimated 94 per cent of Canadians have access to carton recycling, according to Tetra Pak, only 42 per cent of used Tetra Pak drink-boxes actually end up in the municipal recycling streams.

This wide gap has prompted Tetra Pak’s active involvement in the formation of the Carton Council of Canada—comprising two other major carton manufacturers, several paper mills and noted professional recycling experts—to carry out waste audits that identify and address key issues impacting carton recycling, as well as provide resources for building a sustainable carton recycling supply chain nationwide.

Also last year, Tetra Pak teamed up with leading Ontario supermarket chain Metro Ontario Inc. in two high-profi le recycling programs: • The RCO-administered WasteFree Lunch Challenge initiative, designed to educate students, staff and parents about waste reduction and introduce recycling assessment and performance criteria into the Ontario schools—using the information to help Tetra Pak fi netune its national recycling strategy.

• The Play Soccer community program, jointly carried out across Ontario last summer in partnership with Metro.

According to Tetra Pak, “The program helped increase and encourage responsible recycling by providing coaches, parents and kids with on-site recycling facilities and information about community recycling programs, as well educate and motivate Ontarians to learn about and use their local recycling facilities to effectively increase away-from-home recycling.”

PACKAGING MILLS ACHIEVE KEY GREEN MILESTONE

The vast majority of Canadian-based paper packaging mill achieved “major” environmental milestone near the end of last year by obtaining or signing on to achieving independent, third-party certification that they use responsible sources of paper fiber to make the board they sell for conversion into boxes, bags or cartons, according to the Paper & Paperboard Packaging Environmental Council (PPEC).

“This is important because both our customers and the public want independent verification that we are sourcing our packaging materials responsibly,” PPEC executive director John Mullinder, adding that 16 of the group’s 15 member-mills have already received, or expect to receive, one of three globally-recognized chain-of-custody certifications used in Canada, including PEFC (Programme for Endorsement of Forest Certification), SFI (Sustainable Forestry Initiative) and FSC (Forest Stewardship Council).

“The Canadian industry already uses a significant amount of recycled material to make its products,” says Mullinder. “In fact, the current average recycled content for domestic shipments is 77 per cent.

“Through independent, thirdparty chain-of-custody certification, we’re taking it a step further to prove that all the paper material our mill members use comes from responsible sources, be it old boxes recycled from industry or households, leftover wood chips or sawdust from logging operations, or virgin pulp,” says Mullinder, citing the importance of chain-ofconfidence certification in light of it being selected as one of several core metrics for sustainable sourcing as defi ned last year by The Consumer Goods Forum international alliance of leading global retailers and brand-owners.

hey may not be the most sexy pieces of equipment in a busy, high-output packaging environment, but what conveying and palletizing machinery may lack in terms of aesthetic charms cannot obscure the basic fact of their integral and indispensable importance to world-class packaging and supply chain performance, efficiency and productivity across a broad range of CPG (consumer packaged goods) and other industries.

trucks or other man-operated machinery—mechanical conveyor systems have been embraced as standard laborsaving equipment by heavy industries for more than a century, with their rapid technological development in the last 40 years helping to spread their use across a broad range of mainstream consumer markets.

Today widely available in a farreaching array of application-specific designs, constructions, speeds, capacities and configurations—from pneumatic, vacuum and vibratory to chain, roller, spiral, vertical, incline, modular, overhead, etc.—modern industrial conveyors are an omnipresent feature of any self-respecting packaging line worthy of the name, and their ongoing technical refi nement and evolution

makes them a massively important capital asset and a core technological competence for a vast majority of manufacturing enterprises worldwide.

“Conveyors are like the arteries of a system—a heart, lung or any other vital organ can be rendered useless if its links to the rest of the body are not maintained, which is why conveyors are an integral part of any operating processing plant,” states Paul Eckert, president of Eckert Machines Inc. Founded in 1959, the Niagara Falls, Ont.-based distributor and integrator of conveying systems for food processing and materials handling applications, has steadily expanded its product offering over the years to include belt, modContinues on page 16 CANADIAN PACKAGING • WINTER 2012

ular, vibratory, spiral and multipurpose models to extend its reach into nonfood sectors, according to Eckert.

“If designed well, conveyors are inherently simple systems for helping companies achieve improved uptime, equipment reliability, speed and personnel safety,” Eckert told Canadian Packaging in a recent interview.

“Some of the biggest improvements in recent years involve the controls more than the conveyors themselves—automating lines to operate conveyors into and out of various processes can optimize a plant’s productivity and safe operation,” Eckert relates.

“As for the conveyors themselves, there are now various new materials that are more durable and/or easier to clean and maintain today, along with better auxiliary products to enable a conveyor to turn corners, raise or lower products, and go into places that were previously not considered possible.

“Therefore, conveyors should always be designed with real needs in mind for both the present reality and future growth,” states Eckert, citing the growing role of governmentmandated food and workplace safety compliance requirements in the ongoing refi nement of existing conveyor system designs.

“The government-staged safety blitzes have served as a kind of wake-up call to the industry, in many cases bringing a cleaner, more sanitary and safer finish to conveyors in general,” says Eckert. “We recognized early on that many of the ‘food’ features of conveyors can be applied equally well to other industries.

“Regardless of industry sector, the main common driving force is reliable safe operation—everybody wins when both personnel safety and continuous production time are properly considered and covered,” he asserts.

For all their inherent simplicity, 16 • WWW.CANADIANPACKAGING.COM

Eckert says that proper understanding of the conveying systems’ pivotal role in a company’s production process remains a stumbling block for many end-user manufacturers.

“A simple problem can often lead to complex solutions,” Eckert explains. “In many industrial facilities, processes, equipment and people have evolved over the years with seemingly minor adjustments—to the point that when something needs to be ‘updated’ it has a ripple effect on many other adjacent things, so that a simple conveyor application might involve cleaning up several other surrounding items in the plant.

“This is usually a good thing, but it can add to the capital cost of the actual immediate project, thus causing its delay or outright cancellation,” he cautions. “Processors need to recognize the need to spend properly and see the whole picture.

“Doing it properly now will usually save even more in the longer term by smoothing out production flows, optimizing productivity and reducing such concerns as downtime or personnel injury,” says Eckert, stressing the importance of fully understanding customers’ evolving needs by conveyor systems manufacturers and integrators.

“As we see our customers developing more interesting and unique new products, we have to adapt to handle their often-unique new needs,” Eckert reflects. “Quite often, we can merge the technologies of two or more of our machinery suppliers in a complement-

ary way—utilizing the benefits and strengths of each to best handle a customer’s complete needs.

“And we can adapt new materials and material handling solutions to handle needs we do not yet know about,” he notes, citing emergence and continuing sophistication of automatic palletizing systems, which have also become an indispensable end-of-line packaging mainstay across a vast array of industries shipping their products out to customers on pallets.

Since their introduction at North American factories in the 1970s, inline palletizers have not only helped drive out the massive manual labor costs of stacking boxes of product on skids by hand, but to also do the job with far greater accuracy and precision at onceunimaginable line speeds by utilizing a continuous motion flow divider that guides the goods into the desired area on the layer-forming platform—at both high and low, floor-level elevation.

The inevitable introduction of industrial robotics into palletizing systems in the 1980s laid foundation for a whole new class of robotic palletizers to emerge in the 1990s to help countless high-volume, high-speed manufacturers in numerous industries to significantly optimize their end-of-line performance and efficiencies—often through keen integration of the palletizing systems with a factory’s existing conveyor design configurations.

And while it’s far from certain that robotic palletizers are about to completely replace the conventional palletizing systems any time soon, the increasing affordability and flexibility of today’s palletizing, packing and pick-and-place robots are making them an increasingly attractive ROI (return-on-investment) proposition for the manufacturing end-users, according to industry insiders.

“The palletizing market has evolved considerably over the last decade, and robotics now account for a significant portion of the market,” says Steve McElweenie, vice-president CANADIAN PACKAGING • WINTER 2012

AUTOMATE NOW

WINTER 2012 • CANADIAN PACKAGING

that can accommodate these new challenges, and our robotics offerings often provide an ideal solution for handling the more complex packaging and cases.

“Conveying and palletizing efficiency is critical for packaging line productivity,” McElweenie asserts.

“Customers require maximum efficiency from their packaging lines, and so the conveyor and palletizing systems must be designed, manufactured and installed in a way that will meet this challenging demand.

“Manufacturing plants usually don’t have the production flexibility to upgrade and modify their existing lines and as a result, efficient, effective project implementation and coordination are mission-critical,” says McElweenie, explaining Intelligrated’s prominent marketplace positioning.

Point of Pride

“We take pride in building rugged, reliable equipment [and] we also realize that if the palletizer goes down, the line backs up and shuts down the upstream packaging operation, which could be a catastrophic event for our clients,” says McElweenie, pointing out that Intelligrated is the world’s leading manufacturer of high-speed palletizers, with some models palletizing up to 220 individual 12-packs per minute.

“Some of these machines have been in operation for 25 years—running three shifts, seven days a week,” he extols.

“We do everything possible to ensure that our clients’ lines are working at peak efficiency with little or no unplanned downtime by continuously reviewing product designs and making best-ofbreed improve-

ments for future product models, such as layer depalletizing using robotics and unscrambling conveyors to allow for rainbow load creation to use an example,” McElweenie reveals.

“In addition to our advances in robotics we (Intelligrated) are also a pioneer in integrating PLC (programmable logic controller) controls solutions for robotic systems,” he continues.

“Utilizing PLC controls promotes a more seamless integration of robotics into a facility, as the maintenance staff are already familiar with PLC controls, as well as the ability to increase speed, handle smaller packages and to achieve gentler handling, with easier user interfaces and quicker product changeovers.”

John Danesh, food and beverage specialist with Brampton, Ont.-based SEW-Eurodrive Co. of Canada Ltd., a leading supplier of gearmotors, drive electronics, control and software for automated packaging and other industrial equipment, also notes a growing trend toward more robotics in palletizing applications.

“In today’s palletizing market the use of robots is becoming much more standard,” says Danesh. “This is driven by the need for increased speeds, mixedcase palletizing, unusual packaging options, and the ability to handle smaller case sizes.

“This development follows changing retail trends that emphasize palletizing the same package the consumer takes home instead of stacking and shipping Continues on page 18

and general manager of Intelligrated Canada Limited, Oshawa, Ont.based subsidiary of leading material handling systems and equipment group Intelligrated of St. Louis, Mo. “There is still a strong demand for conventional palletizers, but we’re seeing more and more robotics, as well as lowto mid-level palletizing applications.”

This trend has prompted Intelligrated to pour major capital investment into robotics in recent years, McElweenie relates, including recent startup of a “state-of-the-art robotics demonstration lab at our St. Louis facility to allow our application and design engineers to work with our robotic manufacturing partners in a lab setting, where we can demonstrate proof of concept for our clients using their own product.”

McElweenie cites the company’s recent launch of the Alvey 950 palletizer series as a perfect blend of conventional and robotics palletizing, whereby the system integrates robotic arms for pattern forming with a conventional high-speed palletizer.

“The results are very impressive,” he states. “While robotics does give customers more palletizing options, customers are often confused about the best way to apply palletizing technology in their operations.

“Thankfully, Intelligrated is in a unique position to offer both technologies,” says McElweenie, citing Intelligrated’s global installation base of over 5,000 palletizing machines, along with a blue-chip client base comprising most Fortune 500 foodand-beverage producers.

“Ever-changing, consumer-directed packaging changes are having a huge impact on the industry,” McElweenie relates. “Packaging is evolving to meet consumer preferences, such as more environmentally-friendly packaging and packaging that supports an ‘onthe-go’ lifestyle.

“We are also seeing smaller case sizes that are harder to handle, less secondary packaging—requiring gentler handling—and higher line speeds that require better control of the product,” he points out.

“These trends reflect a growing need for palletizing and conveying equipment

secondary packages, which need to be unpacked at the ready for the retail floor.

“In the past, due to the complexity, speed limitation and cost most palletizing systems did not utilize the use of robots,” Danesh recalls. “Most palletizing applications were using pneumatic or servo-driven two-axis gantry systems for row forming, or continuous-motion systems.

“But as today’s robots continue to become more user-friendly, faster and less expensive, robotics is fast-becoming a more viable for a lot of applications.

“For end-use manufacturers, it is often a challenge to determine a deciding factor whether to use standard palletizing machine or to use robot,” Danish acknowledges, but it may be one of the more important capital investment decisions they have to make.

Huge Role

Says Danesh: “Palletizing systems play a hugely important role in the overall productivity of the plant, because as production speeds get faster, packaging and palletizing can easily become the bottleneck of every production line.

“No matter what the products— packaged foods, beverages, pharmaceuticals, medical items, etc.—the requirements for efficient palletizing remain similar in every industry: to keep up with production speeds; to build accurate loads; to stack damagefree product; and to provide high process reliability and safe operation.”

Yarek Niedbala, national sales director at the Mississauga, Ont.-based KUKA Robotics Canada Ltd., asserts that ongoing improvements in the design and construction of industrial robotics naturally make them a better-suited option in an increasing number of industrial settings—notably in freezer warehousing and storage environments.

Niedbala explains: “There’s an increase in the use of freezer environments in the food industry and cold storage markets [and] in some of these facilities products must often be palletized in very cold temperatures as low as -30˚C, which poses several challenges: difficulty in fi nding and maintaining labor; increased staffing needs; worker cold stress, which impacts productiv18 • WWW.CANADIANPACKAGING.COM

ity and alertness; and more personnel to train, since operators are frequently rotated out of the environment.

“A palletizing robot would be an ideal solution for these environments, where space is at a premium, but because traditional palletizing robots were not developed to work in such cold environments, they require protective jackets and heaters to keep them warm,” Niedbala relates. “This requires heat energy to be added to an environment that we are trying to keep cold, and there’s also the added cost to maintain the jackets and heaters.”

To address this shortcoming, KUKA recently introduced a model KR 180 PA Arctic robot—already successfully installed at several busy industrial freezers—designed specifically to work in temperatures as low as -30˚C without jacket or heaters.

According to Niedbala, there are several key factors driving the ongoing trend to robotizing of inline palletizing equipment, including: • Full Line Integration.

“Our CPG end users are looking for a single integrated control solution for packaging machines and robotics to reduce training requirements—by eliminating the need to learn a robot OEMs controller—and to simplify the control architecture and maintenance,” says Niedbala, citing KUKA’s recent launch of a series of robots running on Rockwell Automation’s Allen-Bradley ControlLogix controller and Kinetix drives, replacing the proprietary KUKA controller, drives and teach pendant.

• Package Lightweighting.

“Lightweighting and sustainability initiatives in packaging have led to an increase in the use of shrink film and lighter materials, making packaging

more fragile,” Niedbala explains. “This makes the traditional bump-and-turn mechanisms inadequate for layer forming in high-speed palletizing applications, where products can incur damage.

“That’s why KUKA Robotics developed a robotic layer-forming solution that uses one or multiple robots to gently and quickly slide products into position to create layers without damaging the products.”

• Operational f lexibility.

“Club stores are driving CPG companies to provide frequently changing product mixes and packaging that help to increase sales at their stores, hence CPG companies that supply a variety of club stores are increasingly relying on contract packagers that understand their customers’ packaging preferences and requirements,” Niedbala relates.

“Contract packagers must rely on flexible packaging lines that can satisfy these requirements, and the flexibility of robots makes them an ideal choice for these types of lines.”

• Cost Reduction.

“Our customers are demanding higher throughput, thereby pushing robot manufacturers to develop faster products,” says Niedbala. “For us, that means incorporating new materials, such as carbon composite reinforced plastic, in the construction of palletizing robots to achieve lighter arms and faster speeds.

Says Niedbala: “One sure way to achieve higher throughput is to palletize full layers instead of individual products.

“This kind of operation requires robots with very high payloads, and KUKA Robotics has a complete range of heavy-duty palletizing robots developed expressly for these types of applications— Continues on page 20 CANADIAN PACKAGING • WINTER 2012

with payloads ranging from 300 to 1,300 kilograms.”

René Cossette , general manager with Rivièredu-Loup, Que.-based end-of-line packaging equipment manufacturer Premier Tech Systems, concurs.

“Robotic palletizers offer several key advantages: they typically need less space, usually require less maintenance, and they can adapt more easily to accommodate different pallet patterns, layouts and product types, while being capable of simultaneously handling multiple infeeds of different products, including bags, cases, pails, bottles, drums, etc.,” he says.

Cossette relates that Premier Tech has developed a broad range of end-of-arm tooling for robotic palletizers—including vacuum, bundle grippers, fingerstype, magnetic, servo-driven and other types of grippers—to cover a broad range of end-use applications.

Serving a highly diverse client base in the horticultural, feedstock, agrifoods, chemicals, minerals, pet-foods and other manufacturing sectors with high-volume, high-throughput industrial environments, Premier Tech also offers a comprehensive selection of conventional palletizing systems—as well as conveyors—stressing operational flexibility, quicker changeover capabilities, lower power consumption and minimal maintenance requirements as key competitive advantages.

“We design our conventional palletizers to make them easy to troubleshoot, support and operate without special training, while also providing a high throughput in the handing of bags, pails, cans, cases, drums, bundles, kegs and so on,” he asserts.

“Our conventional palletizers provide neat, symmetrical palletized stacks thanks to the four side pushing plates which square up each layer as it is deposited onto the layer below,” says Cossette, “and they are able to compress each layer during palletizing as the stripper plate presses down onto each layer of bags.”

Nevertheless, Cossette agrees that more widespread use of robotics-based palletizing solutions among Premier 20 • WWW.CANADIANPACKAGING.COM

Tech’s clients is inevitable.

“One thing we know for sure is that robotics have emerged in a big way in the past five years to become more and more popular among our customers,” he states.

“To remain competitive, our customers are continually demanding more flexibility, productivity and reliability—the three key attributes provided by robotics.”

As well as optimal operational safety in respect to workplace ergonomics and repetitive motion injuries, according to Julie Lindblad, marketing coordinator at the Vancouver, Wash.based palletizing systems manufacturer Columbia Machine, Inc.

Safe Bet

“Safety, flexibility, innovation and sustainability are key marketplace trends that are driving the design of today’s palletizers,” says Lindblad, whose company has to date installed over 3,000 palletizing systems worldwide, mostly in North America, for customers in the food-and beverage, personal-care, home care and chemical product industries.

“Having Category 3 safety electronics as standard across our entire product line is obviously something that all manufacturers are looking for,” she says, also citing productivity as the other key performance attribute.

“You can have workers manually palletizing product at 10 or 12 cases per minute if you want, whereas Columbia Machine supplies palletizers for operating at 40, 50, 80 and, in some instances, over 140 cases per minute!

“You simply can not manually palletize at those kinds of rates,”

Lindblad asserts. “In most circumstances, greater efficiencies are realized with higher volume productivity, which requires greater levels of automation, including more automated palletizing.

“Even at lower production rates, automation can increase a manufacturer’s competitive advantage by reducing labor requirments and lowering production costs,” she points out, saying Columbia’s broad product line—comprising 13 conventional inline palletizing systems and three different robotic arm choices—can accommodate a broad spectrum of application requirements.

“Although we have not seen huge changes on the mechanical side of automating the conventional palletizing process,” Lindblad reflects, “there have been some tremendous gains on the electrical side, with new sophisticated PLC components and touchscreen HMIs (human-machine interfaces).

“About six years ago Columbia Machine introduced Product Manager software to allow manufacturers to store product and pattern data and related machine ‘recipes,’ which ultimately allowed even the lower-speed, lowercost palletizers to be able to seamlessly change from one product or SKU (stockkeeping unit) to another in ‘on-the-fly’ operation,” she explains. “This true ‘tool-less’ changeover is a prime example of how conventional palletizers have become much more flexible in recent years.”

The increased affordability of sophisticated control electronics has also had a profound impact on the design of conveyor systems, according to Will CANADIAN PACKAGING • WINTER 2012

Rothrock, sales manager for western region at the Burlington, Ont.-based FlexLink Systems Canada, Inc. Now operating as part of the Bologna, Italy-headquartered Coesia Group, which acquired the Swedish industrial conveying systems supplier FlexLink AB late last year, FlexLink was the original pioneer of the modular conveyor systems that enabled user to “condense their line layouts while actually increasing the lines’ productivity,” according to Rothrock, who also cites FlexLink’s development of its widely-used Production Logistics software technology for adapting material and information flows to a production environment.

“Ten years ago this concept primarily focused on the management of material flow, ensuring that the right material is distributed to the right machine and workstation, in the right quantity and quality, at the right time,” Rothrock relates.

“Today the concept has expanded to include the management of information flow, controlling the process and product data throughout the production processes, providing process statistics and facilitating automatic line changes.”

In the last few years FlexLink commissioned several studies to determine the impact of Production Logistics on typical production and packaging lines, reveals Rothrock, citing “remarkable” results.

“By starting with an efficient line layout, and incorporating a sophisticated controls architecture that allows the conveying system to adjust and react automatically to the output and efficiency of each piece of equipment in the line, productivity increases of 15 per cent or more are not uncommon.

“In the fast-moving consumer goods market, these improvements can result in financial payback for the initial cost of these solutions in a matter of days, not months,” he points out.

“Many customers today are unaware of the potential impact that the application of Production Logistics can have on a lines overall productivity— spending weeks, or even months, researching major equipment items for a line and then simply take a ‘connect the dots’ approach to the conveying system.

“To maximize the efficiency and productivity of a line, an equal amount of time must be spent in determining the optimal material flow through the line, WINTER 2012 • CANADIAN PACKAGING

and a control system must be considered that goes beyond the “start/stop” mentality that typically prevails today,” Rothrock asserts.

“The conveyor system can no longer be an afterthought, but must be considered a crucial component of the line with an appropriate portion of the budget,” he states, citing continued integration of new-generation automation components and software into contemporary conveyor system designs.

Soft Touch

“Modern control systems that incorporate communication networks— ProfiBus, DeviceNet, Ethernet IP, etc.—along with ‘smart’ line components such as motor controllers, sensors, vision systems and RFID (radio frequency identification) have had an incredible impact on conveying technology,” he explains, citing enhanced new capabilities such as: • The ability to route individual products to specific locations via RFID tracking based on real-time information; • The ability to control line speed dynamically based on the conditions at a specific machine; • On-the-f ly inspection along the process route to allow for rejection of defective or incomplete products from the production stream; • Automatic display of assembly instructions or diagnostic information specific to individual product on operator interfaces via RFID “license plates” and real-time production tracking.

Rothrock relates: “One of the fi rst industries where FlexLink conveyors made a significant impact was the paper converting industry.

“If you walk down a supermarket aisle you are likely to see the same roll of toilet tissue in no less than six different package arrangements—from a single wrapped roll to a mega-pack of 24 rolls, with numerous other configurations in between.

ferent locations within a plant are all delivered to an overhead conveying highway and—using sophisticated controls, sensors, diverters, and merge devices—delivered to various wrapping machines on-demand—thus optimizing the balance of products throughout the line for optimal floor space utilization and product yield.”

According to Rothrock, such innovative conveying concepts are bound to become more commonplace on production and packaging lines in coming years—in large part driven by more sophisticated and operator-friendly software programs.

“We expect software technology to play a larger role in the next five to 10 years,” he says. “With better software, companies will be able to measure and monitor certain areas of their production such as energy consumption, throughput, speed, and keep track of routine preventative maintenance schedules.

“By keeping a watchful eye on these areas, manufacturers will be able to sharpen their processes and be at the forefront of their competition,” Rothrock concludes. “Conveyor technology has long proven itself to be a vital investment for companies both large and small, and its importance will only increase as customers strive for high and even quality of production, in combination with lower production costs.”

A PURE POWER TRIP

Energy efficiency at the heart of Schneider Electric’s packaging automation vision for the 21st Century

BY GEORGE GUIDONI, EDITOR

I

t’s hard to imagine that the great former New York Post columnist Earl Wilson really knew exactly how right he was when he so wittily deadpanned one for the ages: “Benjamin Franklin may have discovered electricity, but it was the man who invented the meter who made the money.”

Big money indeed, and getting bigger all the time, as evidenced by the existence and influence of global corporate heavyweights such as Schneider Electric—a French-owned, $25-billion-plus a year industrial colossus with a commanding share in many global markets for electrical power, distribution, management, monitoring and automation controls, where it robustly competes head-to-

head against other global powerhouses of industrial automation engineering such as Rockwell Automation, Siemens AG and Omron Electronics LLC, to name a few.

While power transmission and distribution accounts for a hefty 59 per cent of the company’s annual revenues, according to its 2010 annual report, in recent years global manufacturing industries have collectively grown to become its second-biggest source of worldwide revenues at 18 per cent, well ahead of the other core Information Technology and Buildings sectors.

This steady expansion in industrial markets has naturally enabled Schneider Electric to grow its presence in the all-important North American marketplace, where the company now

generates almost a quarter (24 per cent) of its annual earnings.

Like all leading power systems and industrial automation suppliers, Schneider Electric posted a notable drop in revenues in 2009 at the peak of the recent Great Recession, but it had since rebounded resoundingly to post record-high revenues and profit levels through both organic growth and a series of well-executed strategic acquisitions—leveraging the company’s long-standing reputation as an elite supplier of cutting-edge industrial automation hardware and software, including robotics and a vast array of motion control solutions, to OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) serving a broad spectrum of durable and nondurable goods-producing sectors.

Show and Tell

This competence was certainly in abundant display a few weeks ago in Orlando, Fla., during the company’s two-day Machines NOW conference and exhibition accentuating its world-class expertise in helping North American-based OEMs develop new machine designs and capabilities—thereby also helping to stem the tide of ‘offshoring’ of manufacturing jobs to Asia and other low-labor-cost regions through more efficient and optimized manufacturing and packaging performance.

Although the packaging OEM market currently only accounts for a relatively tiny two-percent share of Schneider Electric’s total revenues generated in the industries sector, the company is making a concerted effort to grow that share significantly in coming years, according to Luc Richard, business development manager at the company’s Canadian operations in Pointe-Claire, Que., leveraging the wealth of technical packaging expertise that it has cultivated and nurtured in recent years through its strategic acquisitions—a process tracing back at least as far as its 2005 purchase of a well-established, highly innovative German robotics manufacturer ELAU AG. “The company has identified the packaging machinery sector as one of the most promising OEM business opportunities for us, and we aim to at least double that part of our business over the next couple of years, which may sound ambitious, but it is certainly CANADIAN PACKAGING • WINTER 2012

an achievable goal for us,” Richard told the Canadian Packaging magazine just prior to the Machines NOW conference kick-off.

According to Richard, having virtually unrivaled expertise in energy management perfectly positions Schneider Electric to benefit from the packaging industry’s relentless focus on creating more environmentally sustainable packaging solutions because of the huge role played by energy conservation in the overall environmental footprint reduction equation.

“I think that the very term ‘sustainability’ will soon be replaced in many conversations by the term ‘energy efficiency’ because the two are so closely interwined and mutually dependent,” Richard remarked, echoing a widelyshared sentiment running throughout the two-day event, highlighted with an impressive display of packaging, conveying, robotics and other manufac-

turing solution making optimal use of Schneider Electric’s rapidly advancing automation technologies.

(See Pictures) “Energy may be essential to making the products, but in the past it’s really been invisible on the production bill of materials because it hasn’t really been easy to allocate energy costs to a certain area of your plant, or a specific machine— making it an unmanaged resource,” pointed out Michael Crowley, product manager at Schneider Electric’s industrial web and networking product business unit in North Andover, Mass.

Past Tense

“In the past you would take the total energy bill and allocate it by square footage, which didn’t much have to do with the actual amount energy you were using to make or package the product,” Crowley explained.

“But with energy now getting so very expensive, manufacturers really need to know where their energy is being used and to allocate it to its production processes accordingly.”

While the rising cost of fuel tends to grab most of the headlines in public debates over environmental sustain-

ability and climate change, Crowley countered that transportation activities actually account for only about a 14-percent share of the global GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions generated worldwide, compared to the 44 per cent traced directly to the energy consumption requirements of commercial buildings, including manufacturing factories, and industrial processes and operations themselves.

“There are many things we can already do today with energy audits, energy-efficient products, and engineered solutions for residential, commercial and industrial buildings and processes ... to achieve energy savings of up to 30 per cent in some cases, without really having to wait for new solutions to materialize,” he stated.

“The tremendous rate of global population growth is fueling the growth in energy consumption, especially in the emerging economies,” Crowley noted.

“It is expected to double by the year 2020, and meeting those needs while also trying to cut the CO2 emissions in half to stem climate change will be a big challenge, a really tough task.”

Carrying out that task successfully will ultimately require a major rethink on both the supply and the demand side of the energy debacle, Crowley explained.

“You can focus on supply side of problem with cleaner technologies, nuclear power, carbon capture systems, etc., but it is all bound to take a long time to materialize, and it may also be risky from an environmental safety standpoint,” he remarked. “But on the demand side we already have quite a few technologies that can save manufacturers a fair bit of energy without taking up a whole lot of capital investment.

“Within a typical industrial facility, about 60 per cent is used by the motors driving the machinery, so there is a lot of low-hanging fruit to be had just by fi xing the basics by upgrading your motor starters, inverted frequency drives, breakers, etc.

“From there you can move into the active energy programs with automation and control, HVAC controls, variable speed drives, lighting controls, process and machine optimization ... and once you have improved your energy footprint, it’s important not to lose those gains by using monContinues on page 24

itoring software and energy efficiency analysis software.

“There’s always an opportunity to look for further savings,” Crowley asserted, “but unless you’re actively looking at those on a daily basis, you can and you will miss those opportunities.”

Stated Crowley: “Energy should be a managed resource because energy information and awareness will promote best practices that will enable you to spot the opportunities.

“The key is to have your information from all the right levels—you can’t expect to just receive your bill from the utility and be able to understand where to save energy in your plant,” he remarked.

“Moving from energy awareness to energy management means having the information on how much energy it takes to get the machine into a ready state,” Crowley expanded. “You don’t want it to go to a sleep state if it’s going to take more energy than to keep it running.

“It is time versus the impact of change: what’s the impact of the change, knowing how long it going to take the machine to rehome, knowing how to best optimize the energy profi le of the equipment.

“Once I know that information, I’ll know whether it is worth it to put the machine to sleep over lunch or a shift change.”

Offering his insider view as a prominent member of the international Open DeviceNet Vendors Association (ODVA) user group—mandated with supporting computing network technologies based upon the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP)—Crowley observed: “Things are always a lot easier if you standardize, which is why ODVA is working continuously to standardize that kind of data and information.

“A simple thing like having an energy measuring device adopted inside a variable frequency drive will make it much easier to assign values,” he reasoned, “but energy users must be able to make valid apple-to-apple comparisons to make sophisticated analysis.

“Optimizing energy costs takes a lot of coordination and real-time pricing, and it makes it a lot easier with stan24 • WWW.CANADIANPACKAGING.COM

dardized network protocols—using information from different sources to standardize object models to make useful energy management systems.

“Industrial customers need to track all that information and their customers are asking for it, like Walmart with its packaging scorecard mandate,” he concluded.

“It’s about the ability to look at energy at the machine level and being able to assess how much energy is being used by the different parts of the machine, how often things are running, when is the peak usage, what’s the consumption profi le, how much juice is needed to start up a conveyor belt ... that’s the future of energy management and energy efficiency.”

Ready to Explode

Simon Jacobson, research director, with the Boston, Mass.-based information technology consultancy Gartner Inc., agreed that the unfolding “massive information explosion” is quickly changing the rules of the game in 21st Century manufacturing, presenting both a serious challenge and an opportunity to move forward for North American goods-producing industries.

“As more and more information is being generated, whether from downstream sources, social media or through much more digitization and automation of the enterprise, that information can be either an asset or liability,” Jacobson stated in his confer-

ence keynote address.

“For leading companies it’s an asset that they will want to harvest as much as they can to put it in the context of individual roles, so that an operator on a packaging line knows how that asset is performing, and either shut it down and do preventive maintenance or do the right corrective maintenance,” stated Jacobson. “That same information is also just as important for plant managers, CEOs and CFOs of the companies, to help them understand how shopfloor-level manufacturing is affecting their business.”

Said Jacobson: “If we want more flexibility, agility, reliability and better response time, we need to optimize our resources and our cost optimization to understand all the inputs and outputs, share an integrated view across all my operations to understand where I’m performing or underperforming, and create a way to deliver the information and put it in the context of the operators, the engineers, the plant maintenance department, plant managers, and customer service and sales reps.

“It’s all about information and how we get at it,” said Jacobson, cautioning the conference audience of about 600 engineering and management professionals from across North Americanbased manufacturing enterprises about the pitfalls of “underestimating” the value of using information to build a “collaborative process architecture” to improve their competitiveness.

AUTOMATE NOW

“I would guess that 10 years from now about 60 per cent of the companies represented at this conference will no longer be around,” he warned, because of failure to adapt to the new global manufacturing dynamics unleashed by the rapid “convergence of IT and OT (operational technologies) in a collaborative dictatorship.”

Said Jacobson: “This is no longer the old push-based manufacturing, but rather about understanding from the customer back, from the point of consumption—what is the product that we need to design, produce and deliver to our customers?

“So that if a machine or another asset goes down in your manufacturing process, you will not only understand what it does to that workcell and that production line, but also you map out that impact to still be able to deliver your product to the customer,” he explained.

“As companies are becoming more forward-looking, the need to constantly aggregate, visualize, propagate, analyze and contextualize is not going to go away because such companies will not care about what has already happened, but rather where they are going,” Jacobson stated.

“These companies are building information architectures to accommodate that shift—starting with the machines and other physical aspects of their operations to develop computer models that will manage data over its life-cycle, mine that data, dissimilate it, and use it to understand how to be predictive about their suppliers, logistics, sourcing, etc.

“It’s really all about taking manufacturing data and information and putting into the context of the business to understand how you’re going to perWINTER 2012 • CANADIAN PACKAGING

form, based on how you did before, to formulate a pattern-based strategy that will reach right to the very granular sources of information such as the PLCs (programmable logic controllers), motion controls, blowmolders, etc.

“Our existing systems were built for much simpler times and deployed by skillsets that aren’t there any more,” Jacobson noted, “but that is all changing as businesses accept the need to become more forward-looking, especially in these volatile times.

“This means deploying much higher levels of automation, tags, sensors and other devices to understand how they impact equipment multi-tier value changes throughout the process to answer all the key questions,” he expanded.

Opportune Moment

“What is the opportunity? If energy costs continue to rise, how do I adjust my processes to still produce a highquality product at the lowest cost, while still getting a decent margin to remain profitable? If there’s a natural disaster, where can I shift my capacity to continue to supply the demand in the affected region? If I want to enter a new market, do I have to spend a lot of money on tax and tariffs to get my equipment into the market, or is there a local partner offering an opportunity to outsource?

“If I can fully understand my leading indicators to predict how my business will perform, the odds are that I will see much better delivery capabilities to my customers, much shorter cashto-cash cycles, and more customer loyalty, which means repeat business,” Jacobson stated.

Possessing such capabilities is becoming especially critical in the current contest of global population explosion,

according to Jacobson, which is driving virtually insatiable demand for limited energy resources around the world.

“In the last 25 years we’ve seen some significant energy price peaks and valleys,” he noted, “but if we look at the changes just in the past 11 years alone, we are looking at a 29-per cent rise in cost.

“So for the highly automated manufacturing operations, it becomes vital to understand their energy costs in real time to determine what assets are energy-efficient and which ones are sapping energy,” Jacobson added.

“Energy costs are something that can literally kill companies price-wise, as can the price of raw materials, feedstocks and other such key variables,” he remarked, “and the end of the day, having this kind of visibility and capability to understand your yields and your costs in real time will help you grow your business.”

Said Jacobson: “There is real longterm value in knowing how responsive you can be, how flexible you can be, if you’re able to predict whether you can fi ll demand for your product, if all your assets are working properly, if you can handle a higher mix or higher volume of the product, if you can go from bottling a six-pack to bottling a 12-pack, or even going from a hot-fi ll to a coldfi ll process on a given production line.

“Being able to predict those kinds of capabilities, and understanding where my opportunities for investment lie is absolutely key for manufacturers who want to remain competitive in this new era of more dynamic and more customercentric manufacturing,” Jacobson concluded.

o nice to see that environmentallyfriendly packaging doesn’t have to mean plain brown cardboard anymore. Nowadays many CPG (consumer packaged goods) companies—be they mainstream or not—really seem to be paying serious due to the long-established 3 R’s mantra of Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. It is no longer unusual to see recyclable or reusable consumer packaging at the retail level, and there is also plenty of packaging reduction taking place by progressive companies responding to the better-informed, packaging-savvy consumers who are not so easily fooled these days by wishy-washy environmental claims of debatable merit.

Headquartered in the environmentally progressive San Franciso, household and personal-care cleansers manufacturer Method Product Inc. offers compelling proof that it’s possible to be stylish and green at the same time with its recent collaborations with Disney Consumer Products to provide parents with a kid-friendly, eco-minded option via the Method Mickey Mouse and Method Minni Mouse foaming hand wash liquid soaps. Featuring the iconic head and mouse ear silhouettes designed into the 8.5-ounce containers—made exclusively from postconsumer recycled plastic—to provide repository for the foaming suds, the eye-catching containers are smartly decorated with clean, minimal labeling and complementary trademarks that tastefully enhance the package design, rather than obstruct it with excess type and product info. With an ingenious lockable pump built into into the container’s snout to prevent accidental spilling when not in use, having this adorable container near the sink 74 • WWW.CANADIANPACKAGING.COM

has really helped make my kids only too happy to remember to wash their hands before and after meals.

With its implicit promise of divine diva decadence, the 200-gram jars of Diva Girl Body Bath Melts from the Edmonton, Alta.-based Diva Girl Body Inc. are adorned with colorful but subtle labels—a slightly different one for each of the more than a dozen inspired formulations utilizing extracts of cranberry, coconut, pomegranate, pineapple, vanilla and other neotropical delights—that playfully invite consumers to pick them off the shelf for closer scrutiny by leaving plenty of see-thorough space for an up-close and personal examination of the contents.

Crowned with a standard silver screwtop lid, the clear-plastic containers are one of those packages that practically beg to be refilled and reused after being emptied of their unique, individually-shaped melts varied with the formulation’s scent. My personal favorite so far—the Peppermint/ Cocoa melts shaped into little icecubes—are a perfect match for the eyecandy label adorned with a stylish splash of pink, white, brown and green mixed stripes and polka dots. For their part, the see-through back labels are also kept to minimal dimensions to help keep the product inside visible from virtually every angle—making a charmingly irresistible sales pitch for a luxurious, self-indulgent bath experience.

Some packaging habits are harder to break than others for certain products.

Take lip balm, which is almost invariably packaged in those rigid little plastic cylindrical hardshells that seem to pack at least as much throwaway packaging material as the product itself.

Hence it was so refreshing to across the Hurraw! black cherry tinted lip balm— manufactured by Montana-based Hurraw! Balm from all-natural,

Vegan-certified, fair-trade ingredients like almond, coconut, jojoba, olive and other plant-based oils—in sensible 4.3-gram oval-shaped tubes that are claimed to be designed so as “not to escape from your back pocket,” according to the company. Each intriguing flavor is colorcoded via the matching product label, and they are shipped to retailers in handy 24-pack boxes— made from 100-percent post-consumer recycled paperboard cartons— which effortlessly fold out into an attractive countertop display at the stores’ checkout counters.

Energy drinks have become so commonplace that they’re often hard to tell apart on a busy shelf because of the loud packaging graphics promising a magical, instant pick-me-up.

But PepsiCo’s new Gatorade Prime Activator Pre-Game beverage—a concentrated blend of carbohydrates and B vitamins formulated to help serious athletes sustain optimal performance levels—makes a compelling statement on sensible packaging sustainability with the 25-gram, polyfoil stand-up drink pouches small enough to toss into the tiniest gymbag or backpack, while being able to stand up on its own base thanks to the clever hourglass shape that also makes it easier to grip.

Emblazoned with the brand’s iconic letter G with a lightning bolt striking through it, the fully-recyclable pouch makes the product visible enough to the naked eye through the lightning-shaped cutout to let consumers quickly choose their flavor by color, while the angular top with a perforated tear ensures a fairly easy access to that extra pre-workout boost.
