Packaging Machines that Will Transform Your Business Operation
FROMM Packaging Systems offers a portfolio of equipment engineered to protect products, speed throughput and reduce costs. Whether you need tensioning and sealing, pallet wrapping, void fill or integrated lines, FROMM’s packaging machines include strapping, wrapping, protective and automated solutions to suit diverse industries.
Strapping solutions
FROMM supplies handheld tools, bench and table units plus semi- and fully automatic strapping systems. These packaging machines apply steel, PP or PET strap for bundling, palletising and securing irregular loads. Typical uses include timber, metal, beverage and carton securing. Benefits include consistent strap tension, faster cycle times, lower rework and improved transport safety.
Stretch wrapping and orbital wrappers
FROMM’s range of stretch wrappers includes turntable, robot and orbital systems that use high-quality stretch film to stabilise pallets and protect goods from dust and moisture. These units are designed for heavy-duty use, simple operation and minimal maintenance. Applications span distribution centres, manufacturing and e-commerce fulfilment – delivering load containment, film savings and reduced manual handling.
Protective solutions
Airpad and paperpad systems generate tailored cushioning material on demand. Compact machines produce air-cushion mats or paper pads to protect fragile or high-value items during transit. Advantages include reduced material storage, lower waste, high impact absorption and a smaller carbon footprint compared with loose-fill alternatives.
Automated solutions and integration
For high-volume or mixed-product lines, FROMM’s automated strapping and handling systems (PM and AM series) offer horizontal and vertical configurations, modular arch designs and smart options such as strap dispensers and customised software. These integrated setups automate repetitive tasks, improve throughput, and deliver precise, repeatable results with minimal operator input.
Features to consider when specifying equipment:
- Cycle speed and throughput targets.
- Strap and film compatibility.
- Footprint and integration with conveyors.
FROMM’s PM and AM models are engineered for durability, offering modular arches, programmable tension settings and optional conveyors. For lower-volume needs, semi-automatic units provide an affordable step-up from manual methods while keeping consistent finish. Investing in the right solution reduces material waste and improves safety across warehouse and transport operations.
