Tight Loads and Smooth Rides
Keep all your shippments secure no matter what
Strapping, Hooding, Securing:
How Innova Machinery Transforms Packaging for Canadian Manufacturers
When you’re moving thousands of pallets across North America whether filled with cardboard, buckets of paint, or boxed goods, the last thing you need is instability, product damage, or costly rework. Innova’s packaging are the antidote and the MD Packaging team is proud to bring Canadian manufacturers their game-changing solutions designed to secure loads, cut downtime, and add peace of mind to every shipment.
The Stability Maker
Imagine pallet after pallet of cardboard sheets stacked for transport. Without proper stabilization, even a smooth warehouse floor can feel like a rocky trail. Enter Innova’s Vertical Strapping Machine. With two strapping heads and a top press, it doesn’t just strap – it anchors.
Instead of shifting loads or requiring extra conveyors, Innova’s lateral movement system keeps pallets exactly where they are while delivering 2- or 4-sided strapping. The result? Maximum stability without wasted space or time.
Real-world impact:
A cardboard manufacturer in Spain cut pallet damages by 30% after switching to Innova’s vertical strapping with top press. For Canadian manufacturers, that means fewer rejected loads, lower insurance claims, and—let’s be honest—less stress every time goods leave the dock.

The Spill Stopper
Buckets of paint may look solid, but anyone in logistics knows they’re prone to shifting, tipping, and worst of all—leaks. Traditional shrink wrapping often can’t handle the weight or stability requirements. Innova’s Stretch Hooding solution solves that problem by wrapping entire pallet loads in a single, seamless hood.
Think of it like a superhero cape that keeps every bucket dry, clean, and protected—rain, dust, or cross-country trucking, no problem. The film adapts to irregular shapes, delivering both protection and branding opportunities.
Case in point:
A European paint producer slashed wrapping time by 50% while cutting plastic use by 25%. For Canadian paint and coatings manufacturers, stretch hooding means safer loads, faster lines, and a greener footprint.

The Load Locker
Boxes come in all shapes and sizes, but what they all need is a strapping system that’s consistent, precise, and fast. Innova’s ODEN patented strapping head brings exactly that. Its resistance welding technology ensures every strap is secure without fraying, breaking, or wasting material.
It’s the difference between a load that merely looks strapped and one that’s actually road-ready.
What it means for Canadian plants:
Fewer breakdowns = less downtime.
Perfect tension = products arrive intact.
Automation = labour savings that add up fast.
Case study:
In the ceramics industry, one manufacturer reported a 40% reduction in strapping failures after installing the ODEN system. For food, beverage, or consumer goods shipping across Canada, the same reliability translates directly into cost savings.
