Reusable transport cover for half pallets: the simple solution to replace plastic film

1. Why remove the plastic film from half pallets?

The EPAL half pallet is everywhere: order preparation, shipping, storage, more frequent deliveries, smaller volumes. And yet it suffers from the same problem as the standard pallet: single-use plastic. 

Changing this behaviour means taking action on three very specific points: 

• Reducing waste and associated handling 
• Save time during operations 
• Achieve real cost reductions over time 

2. An alternative to cling film designed for everyday logistics 

The Loopipak cover for 1/2 Euro pallets is a robust alternative to stretch film, designed to secure loads without consumables. 

It is quick to put on, tightens securely, and can be folded away for reuse. We are moving from disposable packaging to a reuse approach: a single piece of equipment for dozens (or even hundreds) of cycles. 

3. An 80 x 60 cm format, adjustable and compatible with your feeds

This cover is designed for half-pallets (80x60). It is designed to adapt to the reality of loads: 

• Adjustable to variations in height (adjustable cover)
• Can be used on different contents and packaging
• Easy integration into internal flows (between sites, production, storage) as well as external flows (customers, carriers, subcontractors)

4. Integrated equipment: practical, not just a gimmick

A logistics cover must be easy to use and compatible with the existing organisation. That's why Loopipak directly integrates elements useful for logistics: 

• Basic equipment: label holder + viewing window
• options available depending on requirements (e.g. sealing, identification, etc.)
• Traceability possible via unique barcodes or other systems for tracking and returns. 

5. A repairable cover, designed to last

The performance of reusable packaging depends on its lifespan. This cover is repairable: when a part wears out, we extend the product's life rather than replacing it. 

It is also waterproof, to protect goods during transport and in storage areas. 

The result: a cover that is not just ‘disposable but better’, but a truly sustainable product. 

6. Reuse, upcycling, local manufacturing: a fully circular product

Loopipak does not manufacture new products. The starting point is existing material. 

• Materials from reuse (e.g. recovered straps, materials for industrial reuse)
• Upcycling of advertising banners and other robust materials
• Local manufacturing in a sheltered workshop 

It is a logic of industrial logistics reuse: transforming an existing flow into an efficient logistics solution. 

7. A tailor-made solution: your constraints come first 

Every company has its own standards: load types, height, frequency, transport constraints, storage, safety. Loopipak provides customised solutions when necessary: the cover adapts to your pallets and your operations, not the other way around. 

8. Cost reductions: the economics of reusables (without the fuss) 

Plastic film does not seem ‘inexpensive’ per unit... until you add it all up: 

• Weekly consumption
• Operating time 
• Waste management 
• Repeat purchases 

With a reusable cover, we change our approach: fewer consumables, less waste, and an investment that pays for itself with use. This is where cost reduction becomes measurable. 

9. PPWR: reusable packaging PPWR, in line with the direction taken for 2030

Regulations are clearly pushing towards reducing single-use items and increasing reuse. This cover is part of this trend: 

• Reusable PPWR packaging 
• PPWR compliant packaging

In concrete terms: you are now testing what many will have to implement tomorrow. 

10. When packaging becomes a palletising solution

This cover is not just for covering. It helps to stabilise and secure loads. 

It is a genuine palletising solution that helps to improve load stability. 

And when your operations require enhanced protection or durability, Loopipak also develops more robust variants (e.g. more resistant pallet covers, depending on requirements).
