Metals & Roll Forming
Metal Packaging Solutions for Roll Formers, Metal Fabricators & Building Product Manufacturers
Metal manufacturers and roll forming operations face unique packaging challenges that standard packaging systems are often not designed to handle. Long products, sharp edges, painted surfaces, varying bundle sizes, and demanding production schedules require packaging solutions capable of maintaining bundle integrity while protecting product quality throughout handling and transportation.
Ameripak provides industrial packaging equipment, packaging supplies, and application-focused solutions designed to support demanding metal manufacturing environments nationwide.
Whether you manufacture roofing panels, steel studs, trim components, tubing, pipe, or other long metal products, our goal is to provide Metal Packaging Solutions, improve packaging consistency, reduce labor requirements, and minimize product damage.
Common Packaging Challenges in Metal Manufacturing
Packaging long and irregular metal products can create ongoing operational issues such as:
- Product shifting during transportation
- Scratched or damaged painted surfaces
- Inconsistent wrapping between operators
- Excessive stretch film usage
- Loose or unstable bundles
- Labor-intensive manual wrapping
- Damage from forklift handling
- Poor load containment during shipment
As production demands increase, these problems can quickly impact efficiency, product quality, and customer satisfaction.
Packaging Solutions for Roll Forming Operations
Ameripak works with manufacturers across a variety of metal industries to help improve packaging performance through:
- Orbital (horizontal) stretch wrappers
- Pallet wrapping systems
- Stretch film solutions
- Cornerboard & edge protection
- Banding & strapping solutions
- Conveyorized packaging systems
- Packaging automation solutions
Our systems are designed to support both manual and automated production environments.
Orbital Stretch Wrappers for Long Metal Products
Orbital stretch wrappers — also commonly referred to as horizontal stretch wrappers — are commonly used in roll forming and metal manufacturing environments to wrap long products efficiently and consistently.
These systems are ideal for:
- Roofing panels
- Steel studs
- Tube & pipe
- Trim components
- Aluminum extrusions
- Bundled profiles
- Building products
- Long fabricated materials
Orbital wrappers help improve bundle containment while reducing handling damage and improving overall package presentation.
Improving Bundle Integrity & Product Protection
Proper containment and protection are critical in metal manufacturing environments where products are often moved multiple times before reaching the customer.
Ameripak helps manufacturers improve:
- Bundle stability
- Stretch film consistency
- Product presentation
- Shipping protection
- Forklift handling performance
- Packaging efficiency
- Labor utilization
Our goal is to help reduce packaging-related issues before they become shipping or customer-service problems.
