The packaging industry is constantly looking for green or sustainable solutions to reduce materials consumption and cost. The shunted partition represents a large step towards achieving these goals. It has a reduced shoulder height and a reduced length and width that reach just beyond the radius of the product bottles it is separating. The reduced size provides a substantial cost savings and dramatic reduction in materials consumption – a greener package!
| THE MATH BEHIND SHUNTED PARTITION SAVINGS! |
| Full Height – Full Size Multicell Partition for 12/750 ml Bottles uses ~600 square inches of material. | Shoulder Height, Shunted Partition for the same case, uses ~325 square inches of material. This is a savings of over 45%. |
| Full Height Air Cell Partition for 6/1.5 liter Bottles uses ~475 square inches of material. | Shoulder Height, Shunted Partition for the same case, ~115 square inches of material. This is a savings of over 75%. |
