SHERIDAN, WYOMING – September 5, 2024 – Sidel, a global leader in liquid packaging solutions, has successfully partnered with Miswa Chemicals UK to optimize their end-of-line operations. Through the implementation of three bespoke case packing solutions, Miswa Chemicals UK has achieved a remarkable 40% increase in overall production line efficiency, underscoring Sidel's commitment to providing innovative and adaptable solutions for diverse manufacturing needs.
Addressing Complex Packaging Challenges
Miswa Chemicals UK, a well-established manufacturer of automotive, household, and insecticide products, sought to transition from manual case packing to an automated system capable of handling their wide range of primary and secondary packaging formats. Sidel's extensive portfolio and technical expertise positioned them as the ideal collaborator to address these multifaceted requirements.
Oren Patel-Champion, Director at Miswa Chemicals UK, praised Sidel's collaborative approach: "The Sidel project team worked hard to understand our needs and offered a comprehensive tailored-made packing solution that aligned well with our various technical specifications from our different production lines. Sidel was one of the very few companies capable of addressing our diverse primary and secondary requirements with technically and economically adapted solutions from their existing proof-ready portfolio."
Innovative Solutions for Optimized Production
Sidel deployed a Cermex WB46 wrap-around case packer for Miswa's aerosol can production line, replacing manual RSC packing. This strategic transition not only yielded substantial savings in corrugated cardboard consumption but also ensured the production of shelf-ready packaging through the incorporation of pre-cuts on the wrap-around blank. The Cermex WB46's modular architecture allows for seamless integration into various production configurations, spanning from low to high speeds, demonstrating its adaptability and cost-effectiveness.
For the handling of large metal cans and Jerry cans, Sidel recommended the Cermex SF39 automatic case packer, a bottom-loading solution that prioritizes product integrity by mitigating the risk of damage often associated with pick-and-place systems. This economical low-speed packer is also highly versatile, accommodating multiple formats and SKUs, further enhancing its cost-efficiency.
A Collaborative Triumph
The successful partnership between Sidel and Miswa Chemicals UK exemplifies the power of collaboration in achieving operational excellence. Sidel's project team provided invaluable technical guidance and demonstrated their ability to tailor solutions precisely to Miswa's production line specifications.
Patel-Champion further emphasized Sidel's adaptability: "Even if Sidel is usually recognised for its high-end robotics and sophisticated technologies, they proved that their portfolio can also adapt to traditional low/medium speed applications for strong national players such as ourselves."
Conclusion
Sidel's implementation of customized case packing solutions for Miswa Chemicals UK underscores the company's dedication to delivering innovative, efficient, and cost-effective solutions across diverse manufacturing sectors. The collaboration has not only significantly enhanced Miswa's production capacity but also serves as a testament to Sidel's ability to tailor its advanced technologies to the specific needs of its clients.
