At CMB you will find the partner you need for the packaging of wooden products and elements for export

The packaging of wooden products and elements for export is no easy challenge for any company in the timber industry, as it is a sensitive and delicate product that needs to be highly protected. Unlike iron or aluminium, wood is not as strong and can be damaged much more easily.

Any sudden movement in the means of transport with which the product is being transported can result in damage that makes the piece, whether or not it is made of wood, unmarketable or unusable for its intended use.

Not only that, but wooden products are also much more sensitive to external influences such as water, moisture, dust or other biological agents. Therefore, achieving reliable, high-quality packaging for the efficient and effective export of wooden products and elements is a challenge for many companies in the sector.

At CMB we are experts in manufacturing machinery for packaging products and wooden elements for export

CMB has been manufacturing packaging machinery for the furniture and wood sector for almost forty years. Since our origins we have specialised in this sector and our main objective is to offer practical and cost-effective solutions that meet real and existing needs.

Packaging of wooden products and elements for export

Companies on five continents rely on our machines for their reliability and robustness, and because we offer a packaging solution that fits exactly what our customers need. Another distinctive feature of our machines that customers value highly is that we can customise any of the models to suit each individual case.

In other words, customers choose one of our machines and we adapt the manufactured product with the necessary technical variations such as, for example, the length of the transport tables or the height of the film dosing crowns, among other things, so that the machine purchased is 100% functional and comfortable to use.

The complexity of exporting wood products and components

As we have already mentioned in this article, wooden elements are very sensitive products and, if they are to be exported, it is essential to ensure that everything is completely isolated from the outside world and the immediate environment. 

In the case of exports by land, wooden products and elements are exposed to the movement involved in transport and to contact with the other products that surround them during transport. The right angles with which some parts of the products being transported end are extremely sensitive to shocks and contact.

In addition, if the journey is long, the products are also exposed to dust and micro-organisms that can enter the lorries or other transport vehicles.

When it comes to exporting by sea, things become even more complicated, as humidity must be added to the above-mentioned risks. It is inevitable that in sea transport, no matter how sealed the containers are, there will be a certain degree of humidity. This prevailing humidity in the environment can be lethal for the wood if it is not well protected.

What proposals for the packaging of wooden products and elements for export do we offer you at CMB?

As experts in the design and manufacture of machinery for the packaging of medium and large products, we can offer you different models of packaging machinery. We have different series and models that pack cold and others that pack using heat. Depending on your specific needs, we recommend you to choose one series or another, and within that series, the most suitable model.

Cold packaging machinery for wood products and wooden components

  • ERL: uses polyethylene stretch film for packaging. This film is fully recyclable and reusable. There is no need to adapt the reel to the size of the product to be packaged.

  • COOLPACK: combines bubble-type polyethylene film and stretch film, both of which are recyclable. It offers two layers of protection and ensures that products arrive in good condition.

  • SUPER P: this module, adaptable to our cold packaging machines, and some heated models, can offer up to 3 layers of protection. It even allows the use of certain types of cardboard sheets. Your products will be fully protected.

Heat packaging machinery for wood products and components

  • ERB: uses recyclable heat-shrinkable polyethylene film for packaging. It allows excellent visualisation of the final product and high production, together with a very competitive cost. Ideal for high production when cost optimisation is required.

  • ERS: packs using recyclable heat-shrinkable polyethylene film in semi-tube or sheet format. It also has a bottom overlap sealing system to offer high quality finishes and high outputs.

  • COMBO: for packaging, it also uses recyclable heat-shrinkable polyethylene film and has several stations with different film widths to be able to pack products and wooden elements of different dimensions without the need to change the film reels. It is a machine with high performance and performance, as well as high profitability, due to the maximum use of the film being used. It is perfect if you need to pack products and wooden elements of different sizes and measurements in a quick and efficient way.
