When the doors open at Interpack from 7th to 13th of May in Düsseldorf, Mosca GmbH will be presenting groundbreaking innovations in load securing under the theme of ‘connected efficiency’. The focus will be on integrated solutions that combine sustainability with Industry 4.0.
A highlight of this year’s exhibition in Hall 11, booth D56, is the highly efficient combination of the KZV-111 pallet strapping machine (below) and the Luna A3 rotary arm stretch wrapper. This combination demonstrates how seamless process transitions optimise throughput times. The KZV-111 provides the foundation for maximum stability, whilst the Luna A3 wrapper ensures final protection against external influences. Thanks to the intelligent control system, both machines communicate directly with one another, which minimises the need for manual intervention and enhances operational reliability. “The combination of strapping and wrapping reduces material consumption whilst ensuring maximum transport security,” explains Alex Jesser, Technical Product Marketing Specialist.
Automation for fresh produce
Through its strategic partnership with Reisopack, Mosca is expanding its portfolio for specialist sectors: the Reisopack 2905 horizontal strapping machine is specifically designed for the fruit and vegetable sector. With an integrated vertical edge protection feeder, it stabilises and protects sensitive goods during transport. These solutions are the result of close technical coordination to meet the high throughput rates in logistics centres for perishable goods. “Our aim is to find the right automated solution for every specific industry requirement,” says Jesser.
Mosca is premiering the new Reisopack Fusion series. With optimised colour schemes and four frame sizes, it expands the range of applications and enables optimal handling of various belt widths and pack dimensions. “The Reisopack Fusion offers our customers the flexibility they need to respond to changing packaging trends and different container sizes,” confirms Jesser.
Innovation in series production
Visitors to the exhibition can also experience the SoniXs P7-Connect B in action. It marks the next step in fully digitalised applications. As the successor to the MP-6, it offers full connectivity thanks to the WebHMI interface. Performance data can be analysed in real time via the digital interface, forming the basis for optimised predictive maintenance. The integrated SoniXs ultrasonic sealing system enables the reliable processing of PP and paper straps. The proven ultrasonic sealing process operates without a heating phase and is therefore not only energy-efficient but also emission-free.
Sustainability with HUG and recyclable strapping
For manual tasks, Mosca presents the HUG hand strapping tool and the more powerful HUG+ version. Together with a shredder on display at the stand, the strapping experts will demonstrate how customers can immediately prepare strapping for the next recycling cycle – fully in line with the circular economy.
Speaking of strapping: At Interpack, Mosca is exclusively showcasing the prototype of a new grey PP strap, which will be ready for market launch this autumn. Designed for bundling and sealing, the strapping consists of at least 35% post-consumer recycled material (PCR-PP) – a proportion that is deliberately highlighted by the grey colour. The fully recyclable strap is free from critical substances and combines regulatory compliance with maximum functionality for shipping and industry.
With this recycled content, the strap is already future-proof today: on the one hand, it meets the future EU requirements for transport packaging under the PPWR (effective from August 2026). On the other hand, it exceeds the 30 per cent threshold required by the UK’s Plastic Packaging Tax (effective from April 2027). “The new grey PP strap is compatible with all Mosca strapping machines,” emphasises Jesser. “The grey colour scheme is deliberately used to provide a clear visual distinction from straps without a recycled content.”
