Bedfordshire based Aetna UK have announced that they have achieved record breaking sales for their ROBOPAC semi automatic pallet wrappers for the first 5 months of 2006.
No less than 150 pallet stretch wrappers have been sold with the most popular machine, the Rotoplat 506PFS wracking up an outstanding 106 sales alone. The 506PFS has been the best selling semi-automatic pallet stretch wrapper in the UK for the past 3 years and this particular model has proved incredibly popular across a wide scope of industries.
Paddy McCartney, Aetna’s national sales manager for semi automatic machinery explained just why the Robopac machines have proved such a hit. “The Power Pre-Stretch, 4 Programmes and 11 adjustable parameters in conjunction with the “Parental Control”, assures that any type of pallet can be wrapped without the operator having to change the settings. The 506PFS gives 250% stretch on the film and will save 50% on film costs compared with conventional machines, whilst improving the pallet stability and reducing packaging waste. Many customers have paid for the machine from film savings within 12 months.”
Aetna says that customers have reported savings using Power Pre-Stretch have proved to be unbeatable. For example Rhys Davies Freight Logistics have reduced their film usage by 60%. Other recent customers include a large bakery in Sheffield, and the UK’s leading Brewer.
Paddy McCartney added, “Although competition is definitely tough for these smaller semi-automatic models, we have found that many of our competitors fail to provide after sales support. Our after sales support team are second to none and we have developed a strong reputation in the market place for being the company that cares, even after the sale is made. Without doubt, Aetna UK provides the best range of machinery at the most competitive prices, which has been proven by these outstanding sales.”
