Hi, I'm Rob Taylor with TC Transcontinental Packaging. I'm a strategic marketing director for our meat group out of Chicago.

I'm here at PacExpo 2024 showing our ClearShield bone in shrink bag. This is our patchless shrink bag technology available throughout all of North America. This is a nylon based bag, provides incredible clarity and gloss. Quite a bit less plastic, overall packaging than a patch bag.We also offer our TCA B490 auto bag or machinery for this bag, as well as our bonus offerings. Which allow our customers to make bags right on their packing line, as opposed to buying pre made bags. Offering about a 15 percent cost savings. As well as reducing their overall inventory by eliminating various lengths of the same width bag. And just buying tube stock to convert into whatever length they need. So, a great combination of both our ClearShield, the best bonein bag in the industry, and our AutoBagger TC AB490.
