Video: Air-pouch void-fill system packs a big payback

A mail-order nutraceutical ocmpany packs up the loose-fill peanuts and switches to air pouches for greater productivity, less mess, and reduced costs.

Health Resources LLC of Hueytown, AL, was established in 1995 as a manufacturer of natural health supplements available by mail order. Today, the company offers more than 400 different SKUs, with products that promote a range of health solutions, including joint relief, heart health, reduced inflammation, and better digestion, among many others.

In March, the company began running six AirPouch Express 3 air-pouch void-fill systems from Automated Packaging Systems to protect its bottles of product during shipment.  Watch a video of the equipment here.
