The sustainable alternative to steel giterboxes

Designed to European dimensions and produced in Europe, the GitterPak™ with a 1200 x 800 footprint is a reliable 1 to 1 substitute for metal gitterboxes, metal tubs and wooden crates. The plastic FLC is used in automotive and industrial applications and holds up to 900 kg. Compared to steel crates, plastic gitterboxes offer low maintenance costs, increased product protection, transport efficiency and workplace safety across the entire supply chain. Plastic pallet boxes do not rust and prevent metal-on-metal part damage with an all-plastic design. The three-runner base efficiently fits into racking or automation systems with a secure two-snap engagement for secure runner-to-base-connection.

ORBIS collapsible plastic pallet boxes offer transport efficiency with a return ratio of 1:3. When folded, one truck load holds up to 272 folded, empty containers compared to 78 fully-assembled boxes. Due to the unique design of the side walls, our plastic pallet boxes are particularly robust and allow for secure stacking: 1 + 5 static and 1 + 2 dynamic. The ORBIS GitterPak is manufactured from 100% recyclable materials. At the end of the service life, we offer to buy back obsolete plastic packaging and put the raw materials to use for new packaging production. The GitterPak is a sustainable, cost-efficient and space-saving alternative to conventional steel packaging.

Innovative Supply-Chain-Solutions – Integrated and Sustainable
ORBIS offers a growing portfolio of reusable transport packaging and develops customer-specific solutions. The load carriers, like FLCs, can be UN-certified to transport solid dangerous goods. All packaging solutions are designed for multiple re-use. At the end of the service life, ORBIS offers to buy back obsolete or damaged packaging for the material value, recycles 100% of the plastics and uses these for new packaging production. In that way, ORBIS creates a nearly closed raw material cycle. The sustainable and reusable solutions bring the following benefits to customers’ supply chains:

• Improved supply chain efficiency and streamlined automation
• Enhanced product protection
• Optimised space utilization due to stackability and fold-down ratio of up to 1:3
• Supply-chain wide, long-term cost savings
• Less waste, clean plants and equipment
