With an established tradition in the packaging industry, we have developed a wide range of services dedicated to meeting the specific requirements of each customer. From packaging design to treatments for export, we are here to ensure every detail is perfectly taken care of.
-
Free quotes and inspections:
Every project starts out by understanding the customer's needs. Effa draws up detailed quotes, thus guaranteeing accuracy and transparency. If required, a free inspection can also be carried out to ensure an accurate assessment of the packaging needs.
-
Logo printing on request:
A company's identity is paramount, so with Effa you can print your logo directly onto the packaging. The stereotype can be supplied or, if necessary, realised through the collaboration with specialised external companies.
-
3D design
Precision is crucial when it comes to packaging. Using dedicated software, Effa guarantees detailed 3D designs, enabling customers to visualise the proposed packaging solution in advance and ensure it is perfectly suited to the product to be packaged.
-
On-site packaging:
Sometimes, direct on-site packaging is the most efficient and quickest solution. Effa offers this dedicated service, managing the entire packaging process and providing the necessary equipment. Once the packaging is complete, all the customer needs to do is proceed with shipment.
The treatment consists of four key steps:
- 01.
-
Preparation
The wood is placed in a special kiln and arranged to ensure even heat distribution.
- 02.
-
Heating
The wood is heated to an internal temperature of at least 56°C. This temperature is maintained constantly for at least 30 minutes, ensuring the complete elimination of all undesirable organisms.
- 03.
-
Cooling
Once the process is complete, the wood is slowly cooled.
- 04.
-
Marking
Each batch of material undergoing treatment is then stamped with a special mark certifying its conformity.
This type of treatment is exclusively for wood packaging, such as pallets, boxes and crates. This procedure is not required for plywood, OSB and cardboard packaging.
Phytosanitary treatment
Exporting outside Europe requires strict compliance standards, particularly when it comes to wooden packaging. Effa performs phytosanitary heat treatment (HT) in compliance with the Fitok ISPM15 FAO certification, ensuring your packaging is ready for export without any problems. Heat treatment is a process that involves exposing the wood to high temperatures for a specific period of time in order to eliminate potentially harmful pests and pathogens.
