Sustainability is important to Certis. As an innovator in transport packaging, we also want to lead the way in developing sustainable solutions. That is why for 20 years already we have continued to launch new possibilities for efficient transport packaging using less material. How? With the right combination of machines, consumables and maintenance services.
Recycling or reusing waste is good, but avoiding waste is even better. As a B2B supplier of packaging machines, devices and materials, we help our clients package even more efficiently with less waste. After all, mechanical packaging is far more accurate and uses less material. The machines are fine-tuned to stretch the film to the maximum to achieve exactly the right thickness and not use more material than necessary. Certis’ specialists will be happy to help you determine the best settings for each machine. This will allow you to reduce your ecological footprint without having to worry about your load security.
The type of packaging material you need depends on the type of load. Certis Benelux can also guide you in this choice. We help you determine the ideal option to protect your load with as little packaging material as possible. In collaboration with our consumables producers, we continuously launch innovative, high-tech, high-quality transport packaging that is extremely stretchable yet sturdy. In this way, you quickly save a mountain of film. Knowing that the production of one ton of stretch film releases about 3 tons of CO2, the ecological benefits of more economical film consumption are immediately clear.
Certis’ dream: a completely circular approach to transport packaging. So, we emphatically appeal to all the links in the sector to each play our role in this and above all cooperate more on new, circular solutions. At Certis we are in any case already convinced of our objective of making our approach as sustainable as possible. For example, our manual wrapping film is already made for 100% from recycled materials. For machine wrapping we have our Nano Eco wrapping film, made of 30% recycled material and registered by Valipac. By using recycled granulate from waste separation, 20% less CO2 is emitted during the production of Nano Eco wrapping film. Just like our other wrapping films, Nano Eco wrapping film is completely recyclable. A good step towards circular transport packaging!
Ecologically speaking, it is imperative to recycle film. 1 tonne of recycled plastic film prevents the production of 3.03 tonnes of CO2, or the equivalent of a lorry driving from Brussels to Moscow.

Quality lasts longer, everyone knows that. With regard to transport, high-quality packaging must guarantee that the load remains stable and arrive at its destination in pristine condition. As a specialised packaging partner, Certis knows exactly what is required for this. So, we very consciously opt for quality in everything we do. Our machines are always also of a high quality and therefore last longer. Furthermore, we extend their useful life with our services for repairs and preventive maintenance. At Certis you will find everything you need, so that we can really optimise your transport packaging in function of more quality and more sustainability.
In any case, sustainability is also a question of people. Logically speaking, lower CO2 emissions and a circular approach are crucial to keep the planet habitable for everyone. That is why sustainability is a goal we all have to work towards. Specifically for Certis, sustainability also means that we want to support sustainable work. Our packaging machines will make your employees’ work more ergonomic so that they will not develop back pain or other physical problems as quickly. That, too, is an important motivation for opting for automation.
