Grip Fix adhesive material
Bag-Fix for added stability of bags on pallets
What is Grip FIX?
GRIP FIX™ — pallet adhesives
Our pallet security systems are based on GRIP FIX™ pallet adhesives.
GRIP FIX™ anti-slip agents are water-soluble, solvent-free adhesives for securing pallet loads. The pallet load can include PE bags, paper sacks, cartons, items packed in cellophane, PP woven bags, or small packages.
How does GRIP FIX™ work?
GRIP FIX™ is applied in small amounts to pallet loads before stacking. After a minimal drying time, the pallets become stable and remain so until they are unloaded.
What’s the secret?
High shear resistance and very low peel strength. The pallet doesn’t slip, and the packages can be easily separated. Generally, GRIP FIX™ leaves no residue after depalletizing.
How to use GRIP FIX™?
Using GRIP FIX™ is easy thanks to our quick-connect system. Whether supplied in a canister or drum, the container can be easily connected to the system with a quick connector. This creates a closed system that prevents dirt from entering the container, keeping the anti-slip agent uncontaminated and preventing it from drying out. Additionally, refilling is unnecessary.
Another advantage, depending on your needs: we supply our GRIP FIX™ in various container sizes, from 1 kg handheld bottles to 1,000 kg containers.
Problems That Can Be Avoided by Using GRIP FIX™
Damage During Transport
In 2001, the Central Association of the German Insurance Industry recorded claims in the transport insurance sector totaling around 1.7 billion euros. Along with increasing insurance premiums, this trend negatively impacts the image and customer satisfaction in the transport sector and affects the wider industry and trade sectors.
GRIP FIX™ pallet security systems, produced by H. Rand GmbH, ensure that your goods do not become insurance claims.
Pallets secured with GRIP FIX™ remain stable during the palletizing process, on the way to stretch wrapping, during transport, and order picking, as well as in the distribution center. Sliding pallet stacks that require re-stacking—often requiring considerable effort—are a thing of the past with GRIP FIX™.
Pallets secured with GRIP FIX™ do not slip, even if the contents are unstable, for example, when transporting PE bags or bottles filled with granules in cardboard boxes. This method of securing goods reduces complaints and saves the hassle of returns.
GRIP FIX™ pallet security systems from H. Rand GmbH enable waste-free pallet securing. GRIP FIX™ adhesive leaves no residue and is biodegradable, so goods are not damaged during depalletizing. This reduces the amount of waste produced, for example, by using shrink wrap, stretch film, pallet sheets, and straps.
If you want to transport goods safely, protect the environment, and save money at the same time, GRIP FIX™ is the ideal product for you.
