Deerfield, IL, Sept. 1, 2020 — Pregis, a leading manufacturer of protective packaging, is introducing the AirSpeed® Ascent high-pressure air cushioning system. This next generation inflator creates the patented square pattern hybrid cushioning (HC) packaging material on demand, saving companies valuable floor space while providing superior product protection to ensure products arrive to customers undamaged.
“Users will immediately notice multiple advancements in the compact, ergonomic design and the throughput speed of up to 100 feet per minute,” said Ryan Germann, category manager for air systems at Pregis. “But the biggest impact for packers comes from the Ascent’s ’smart logic‘ technology.”
Smart logic recognizes and calibrates the optimal system settings as each roll of film is loaded onto the Ascent. This “load and go” efficiency makes machine operation simple because no adjustments are required, eliminating human error. Additional enhancements improve inflation and create strong, consistent seals. This creates HC with superior air retention compared to competitive solutions.
