About IVE Group (formerly Franklin Web)
IVE Group, formerly known as Franklin Web, is a leading packaging and logistics business committed to innovation and operational excellence. They operate large-scale pallet wrapping processes that previously consumed high volumes of stretch film and generated considerable plastic waste.
The Problem
IVE Group’s traditional pallet wrapping setup relied on conventionalstretch wrapfilms and wrapping methods, causing:
- Excessive stretch wrap consumption per pallet
- High volume of plastic waste requiring disposal
- Frequent roll changes impacting productivity
- Increased operational costs and a growing environmental footprint
The Solution
IVE Group partnered with Omni Group to deploy the award-winning Euro Stretch Wrap combined with power pre-stretch pallet wrapping machines. This solution:
- Uses thinner, stronger film with 350–400% stretch yield
- Cuts film usage per pallet by nearly half
- Improves puncture resistance by 65%, reducing breaks
- Reduces roll changes and downtime with longer-lasting film rolls
The Results
By switching to Omni’s pallet wrapping system, IVE Group achieved:
- 25,560 kg less stretch wrap used annually, saves over $32,845 per year.
- Equivalent of 128 skip bins of plastic waste eliminated per year
- Roll changes reduced from 10.4 to 5.3 rolls per day
- Nearly 50% reduction in film usage per pallet
- Improved load security with increased puncture resistance
This transformation not only cut costs and plastic waste but also boosted operational efficiency and helped IVE Group meet its sustainability targets.
