Graphic Packaging International to Uveil ClipCombo™, a New Approach to Packaging Machinery System Development, at drinktec 2022

Fiber-based consumer packaging leader, Graphic Packaging International is set to launch its latest machinery system innovation, ClipCombo™, at this year’s drinktec exhibition being held at the Trade Fair Center Messe München in Munich, Germany, from September 12 – 16.

ClipCombo™ combines multiple packaging solutions over a modular machinery system, an innovation that will be eagerly welcomed by the world’s leading beverage manufacturers, as the market increasingly leans towards optimized, fiber-based packaging solutions.

A new and highly innovative machinery approach to beverage packaging, ClipCombo offers producers the ability to run multiple fiber-based multipack styles across the same machine. The concept will deliver real value and flexibility, meeting today’s and tomorrow’s needs. Machine options are available for either cans or PET bottles, offering multiple combinations, including:

• Multi award-winning KeelClip™ plus EnviroClip™ fiber-based clips for can multipacks
• GripClip™ plus EnviroClip™ fiber-based clips for can multipacks
• Cap-It™ plus EnviroClip™ fiber-based clips for PET bottle multipacks

Boasting high speeds of up to 400 packs per minute (dependent on application) and rapid changeovers as part of an impressive list of benefits, ClipCombo enables customers to differentiate between brands and position premium or standard options.

In addition, ClipCombo technology promises to lower capital investment for beverage packers, as the ability to deliver multiple pack styles with rapid changeover eliminates the need for several installs. This frees up space on the factory floor and reduces the number of operators required.

This new approach to machine system development will allow Graphic Packaging to add to their incredibly successful clip-style packaging range and further help customers eliminate plastic rings and shrink wrap across their product range.

The Company will also be showing its full range of multipack solutions for the beverage industry, including clips, wraps, fully enclosed and basket carrier cartons, in addition to the sustainable fiber-based container for dry mixes, Boardio®.

Graphic Packaging is exhibiting in Hall A4 on stand 319. Visitors who would like to request a free ticket to the show courtesy of Graphic Packaging can do so here.
