We have been used for long to seeing in the shelves of our supermarkets shrink-packs made of perfectly aligned bottles. If this arrangement appears so natural, it is only because it dates back to the early beginnings of industrial packing (boxed products) and was reused for shrink-packs Read more
2 main patterns are available on the market : symmetrical packs (by columns or rows), where each column or row is composed of the same number of containers. asymmetric packs, where one additional container is inserted every two columns. In both cases staggered rows are obtained by moving one row out of two by half the diameter of the container. Read more
The arrangement in staggered rows allows to significantly increase the stiffness and shear resistance of shrink-packs using simple physical principles. Most of the benefits (economical and environmental) of nested packs derive from this natural stiffness. Read more
