Packaging machinery manufacturer TAB Industries, LLC, has broken its record for sales of its TAB Wrapper Tornado orbital wrapping systems, reporting a 43 percent increase in total pallet wrapping units delivered in 2021 versus 2020 and a 44 percent increase in revenue. The TAB Wrapper Tornado line of orbital wrappers automatically applies stretch wrap 360 degrees around and under the pallet and load to create a tight, secure, unitized load that resists shifting in transit without requiring banding, boxing, or strapping. The increasing demand for automated packaging equipment as a solution for boosting production without requiring a large staff contributed to the record year, according to Andy Brizek, vice president of sales and marketing.
The company’s automated TAB Wrapper Tornado Smart Controls wrapping units tallied a 100 percent increase in units delivered in 2021 versus 2020. These orbital wrappers enable a single operator to perform the entire wrapping function by remote control as a non-stop, continuous process, often reducing the time per pallet wrap from five minutes to 30 seconds or less. The company’s three, standard, semi-automated models with 100-inch, 80-inch, and 40-inch wrapping ring diameters also garnered substantial increases in units delivered year over year.
The patent-pending TAB Wrapper Tornado orbital wrappers are designed and manufactured in the company’s Reading, Pa. headquarters. The wrapping machines are delivered tested, inspected, and ready for operation with a warranty.
