Carry pack keeps costs down

A new packaging concept for Tork interfold hand towels is designed to cut costs, save time and make life easier for the cleaner.

SCA Tissue Europe's new Tork Carry Pack is made from strong, clear plastic and claims to be easier to transport, open and store than a traditional corrugated box. It uses only a sixth of the amount of material, reducing waste and waste disposal costs.

"Cleaners will like the fact that the Tork Carry Pack has comfortable handles allowing them to carry two packs at once," says Charlotte Branwhite SCA Tissue Europe product and market manager."The pack can be opened in a few seconds by peeling back a perforated plastic tab, which removes the need for hunting around for a knife to open a box." The bundles of hand towels inside the carry pack are tightly compressed and take up minimum storage space.The waterproof plastic pack can be stored outside.

The plastic used in the pack is recyclable and can be used as a bin liner when empty, which can further help to reduce costs.

"The pack saves man hours in facilities where time equals money," ends Branwhite.
