  • Result: 95% flowability retention, eliminating manual breakage costs.

1.1.3 Pharmaceuticals & Hygiene

  • The Problem: FDA-regulated products require <5% RH during 30-day ocean freight.
  • VidePak’s Solution: 三层复合结构 (Laminated BOPP/PP/Breathable Film) with 8–10 CFM ratings.
  • Result: 0% rejection rate in EU audits for Indian API manufacturers.

2.1 Packaging Innovations: Maximizing Container Efficiency

2.1.1 200-Ton Baler Integration

  • Process:
    1. Compression: 200-ton hydraulic press reduces bag volume by 35%.
    2. Palletization: 1.2m x 1.0m Euro pallets with 4-way forklift access.
    3. Stretch Wrapping: 5-layer LLDPE film (17 micron) securing 2.2-ton loads.
  • Efficiency Gain: 18% more bags per 40HQ container vs. manual packing.

2.1.2 Moisture Defense Protocol

  • Tarp System: HDPE covers with 98% waterproof ratings (ASTM D751).
  • Desiccant Integration: 500g silica gel packs in intermodal containers.
  • Result: 0.07% damage rate in monsoon-season shipments to Mumbai.

3.1 VidePak’s Technical Edge: From Resin to Recyclability
