(PRESS RELEASE) DÜSSELDORF, 22-Jan-2025 — /EuropaWire/ — Henkel is set to showcase cutting-edge packaging innovations at LogiMAT 2025, offering sustainable and efficient solutions for handling order spikes in e-commerce logistics. As millions of packages flooded e-commerce warehouses ahead of peak shopping seasons like Black Friday and Christmas, inefficient packaging resulted in oversized products, excessive filling materials, and damaged goods that were returned. These issues underline the need for smarter, more efficient packaging methods. At LogiMAT 2025, Henkel will introduce solutions designed to help fulfillment centers better prepare for high-demand periods.

One of the key innovations is right-sized packaging, which optimizes the fit between the product and the shipping carton. By utilizing automated technology to match package size to product dimensions precisely, logistics companies can reduce both underpacking and overpacking, eliminating waste and material costs. This innovation also improves packaging efficiency, particularly during peak seasons. The ability to reduce transportation volume by up to 20% not only cuts transportation costs but also helps decrease CO₂ emissions per shipment. In addition, the more secure fit of the packaging helps protect fragile products and lowers the risk of returns due to transit damage.

To complement the right-sized packaging, Henkel offers the Technomelt E-COM G5 Eco Cool, a sustainable hot melt adhesive designed specifically for e-commerce packaging. This eco-friendly adhesive, which is made from bio-based raw materials, operates at a low processing temperature, saving energy during production. Additionally, its compatibility with recycling processes further enhances the sustainability of packaging solutions, reducing the overall carbon footprint.

By automating packaging, businesses can flexibly adapt to fluctuating order volumes while reducing waste and operational costs. Eike Dominiak, Business Development Manager for E-Commerce Packaging at Henkel, explained, “Following a year of record sales and heightened logistics activity, now is the ideal moment for companies to adopt sustainable, automated packaging technologies. With Henkel as a trusted partner, companies can optimize their value chains and position themselves as leaders in sustainable logistics.”

From March 11 to 13, visitors to LogiMAT 2025 will have the opportunity to see first-hand how Henkel’s automated packaging solutions can improve efficiency and sustainability. Located at Hall 6, Stand 6B78, Henkel will demonstrate how right-sized packaging and Technomelt E-COM G5 Eco Cool can benefit e-commerce businesses.
