As a leader in air cushion packaging, our range of packaging systems have been designed to ensure high levels of product protection through its transit and storage life cycle.
AIRplus® air pillows provide a durable block and brace product and a reliable cushioning material for light to medium weight products. The lightweight properties of the air pillows reduce shipping costs and because the air cushions are produced on demand they require minimal storage space.
Our range of void fill machines have been engineered to work for prolonged periods of time at high speeds and are amongst the most reliable in the industry. The AIRplus® portfolio consists of three different packaging systems enabling us to offer you a tailor made solution to improve your packaging process and deliver our working comfort ethos.

AIRplus® from Storopack offers quality machines that create versatile air-filled film packing materials. AIRplus® films combine reliable protection and multiple uses with cost-saving features for the ideal in-the-box packaging products. Their lightweight properties lower shipping costs, and because you’re creating the inflated packing materials on-demand they require minimal storage space and handling in your facility. By using AIRplus®, your packaging will be consistent and controlled. You’ll appreciate the low labor requirements and ease of production as well as its clean, dust-free characteristics.
AIRplus® Void Film is created using a triple layer extruded film process to provide durability and reliability. The outer layer provides a non-slip surface to prevent movement in the box, the middle layer helps to hold the air and offers reinforced strength, and the inner layer provides special heat-sealing properties to prevent deflation.
AIRplus® Void Film serves as a fast and neat void-fill, a durable block and brace product, and a reliable cushioning material for light- to medium- weight objects.
AIRplus® Antistatic Void Film: Our electrostatic dissipating material has been engineered specifically for the protective packaging and storage of electronic components. AIRplus® ESD Film will not produce electrostatic charges during handling and dissipates surface charges, preventing any discharge onto the electronic device being packaged. Developed and manufactured in house, the film complies with DIN EN 61340-5-1 for electrostatic dissipating materials ensuring superior protection of your electronic components.
AIRplus® Cushion Film is an extremely versatile and durable packing product made with the same triple layer film process as Void Film air pillows. Each perforated section of AIRplus® Cushion Film is divided into 16 air chambers making it flexible enough to wrap, bend and fold the film around products for multiple uses and optimum protection.
AIRplus® Bubble Film: As the first air cushion system of its kind, AIRplus® Bubble offers narrow individual sections for the efficient wrapping of small-sized items. The smart-tear-off perforation allows the packer to divide the cushioning wrap intuitively without searching for the perforation. A single section contains two rows with seven round air chambers each.
AIRplus® BIO Film: The raw material is a biologically degradable plastic compound based on polylactic acid (PLA) with co-polyester. As with polyethylene based films, Storopack co-extrudes the polymer during processing to produce a three-layered structure. Compared with mono-extruded films, this reduces material consumption, the elasticity is increased and the low permeability ensures that the air fill does not shrink.
The composting ability of AIRplus® Bio Film is certified according to the European standard EN 13432 and the American Norm ASTM D6400.
Storopack AIRplus® machines are fast, compact, portable and extremely easy to operate. All AIRplus® models are completely programmable, offer quick and easy loading, and are among the most reliably built in the industry. With their small footprints and large production capacities they fit easily into any packaging environment — regardless of volumes. In addition, AIRplus® offers optimum flexibility with multiple packaging options - you can interchange any of our AIRplus® films on any AIRplus® machine and adjust the amount of air in the film materials for different applications.
The AIRplus® GTI produces air-filled packaging materials at the rate of 23 m/minute. The high speed of this machine combined with the flexibility to use multiple size air bags makes it an efficient and effective choice for start and stop operations. In combination with the Autofeed, this machine can be easily installed at any Speedline making storage container solutions a thing of the past.
AIRplus® Mini is a smaller version of the AIRplus® Excel. In addition to improved handling when changing film rolls, the Mini machine offers a technical innovation -- a complete heat-sealing unit with automatic calibration for sealing the air cushions. This compact and very quiet machine has a weight of only 9 kg and can be easily integrated into all packaging processes.
The AIRplus® BagSeparator already divides the padding strips into sections of the desired length. The BagSeparator makes it possible to supply a sensor-controlled machine with up to 24 packaging stations with air cushions. The packers only have to separate individual air cushions in about five per cent of cases. In practical tests, up to ten cartons per minute were processed using this partial automation.
We integrate our air cushion machine in your logistics. The AIRplus system is a sophisticated system that can be with the right accessories, such as pipes, blower or silos and on any number of integrated freight stations.
Storopack’s Systems Integration Department works closely with you to develop a plan that provides the most efficient methods to deliver and use your packing materials.
After a thorough analysis our engineers go to work to develop a proposal that effectively integrates the new machines into your existing facility or, if appropriate, a completely new layout of your packaging area.
Polyethylene film, partly also made from reclaimed raw material. Our triple layer, co-extrusion film process supports source reduction and enhances product quality. Its light weight helps to save fuel during transport. AIRplus® film is fully recyclable. Disposal into established recycle circuits helps to increase reduction of virgin raw material use.
Film made of renewable and fully biodegradable raw material. AIRplus® BIO film is certified compostable according to the US ASTM D6400 (www.astm.org) and European EN 13432 (www.european-bioplastics.org) standards. Our triple layer, co-extrusion film process supports source reduction and enhances product quality. Its light weight helps to save fuel during transport. AIRplus® BIO film is fully compostable and can be disposed of in bio waste. Please see certificates and logos on our website.
