Reusable packaging
Transporting batteries safely
Experts expect battery production capacity in Europe to increase 20-fold by 2030. Packaging for battery transportation must comply with both strict official regulations and individual customer requirements.
Companies require UN-certified, but also product-specific and automation-friendly packaging. The batteries must also be protected from external influences such as impact during transportation.
Plastic transport packaging solutions meet these requirements thanks to their robust nature and customized inner packaging. With the IonPak, Orbis Europe has designed a hazardous goods container specifically for the transportation of lithium-ion batteries. The transportation of other solid hazardous goods such as airbags or belt tensioners is also possible. The IonPak is approved for the transportation of solid hazardous goods (packaging group II) and is UN-certified. It consists of a robust large load carrier with standard European dimensions and a hazardous goods-optimized inner packaging - made of EPP, for example. The reusable packaging solutions from Orbis consist of a high proportion of recycled material, with a raw material recycling rate of 100%. Thissaves more than 60 kg ofCO2 per large load carrier during production.
