Wrapping liners

Product Description

Wrapping Liners are high-barrier liners designed to enclose complete pallet-sized loads while allowing the products to remain in their original bags, cartons or other packaging.

The liner is wrapped around the load and securely sealed. The integrated Two-Way Valve provides one connection point for vacuuming and gas flushing with the vQm High-Speed or XL Conditioning Unit, allowing the atmosphere around the complete pallet to be modified without opening or repacking the individual packages.

This makes the Wrapping Liner particularly suitable for incoming goods that need to be isolated, treated or protected before storage or onward transport. Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) conditions can be created around the complete pallet load, protecting products against external moisture ingress, oxidation, mould-related risks and stored-product insects during storage and transport.

For the modified atmosphere to reach and protect the product, the original packaging must allow sufficient gas exchange. If the individual bags or inner packages are airtight, the MAP conditions will remain outside those packages and not reach the product inside.

Once conditioned, the Wrapping Liner remains around the load, allowing the protective atmosphere to be maintained during storage or onward transport. When the wrapped pallet is transported further, additional outer protection, should be applied to help prevent damage to the liner.

Certifications

The Wrapping Liner is manufactured in a BRC food grade production environment, supporting its use in packaging applications for food and agricultural commodities.

Key benefits for your business

Efficient handling and transport

Treat complete pallet loads without repacking individual bags or cartons. The Wrapping Liner can remain around the load during storage and onward transport, reducing handling while maintaining protection.

Protection against external moisture

The high-barrier liner strongly limits moisture ingress, helping reduce rehydration, condensation-related damage and mould risk.

Protection against oxidation

A controlled low-oxygen atmosphere helps reduce oxidative quality deterioration during storage and transport.

Non-chemical insect treatment

Modified Atmosphere Packaging can be used to treat insects across all life stages in, using low-oxygen, CO₂-rich or N₂-rich atmospheres without conventional toxic fumigants. For applications specifically focused on insect treatment, please refer to our Non-chemical Insect Treatment page for requirements and further guidance.

Isolation and quarantine

Incoming pallet loads can be enclosed immediately for inspection or treatment, helping isolate potentially infested goods and reduce the risk of cross-contamination or external reinfestation.

Target Applications

Suitable for semi-bulk products requiring a very high oxygen, moisture and light barrier, including:

Food Preservation

Agricultural seeds

Non-chemical insect treatment

Chemicals

Other palletised products

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

A Wrapping Liner is a high-barrier enclosure designed to wrap around a complete pallet-sized load, allowing the atmosphere around the products to be controlled without opening the individual packages.

No, the complete pallet load can remain in its original packaging while the Wrapping Liner is sealed around it and conditioned. For the modified atmosphere to reach and protect the product, the original packaging must allow sufficient gas exchange. If the individual bags or inner packages are airtight, the MAP conditions will remain outside those packages and will not reach the product inside.

Yes, when the Wrapping Liner is sufficiently gas-tight, low-oxygen or CO₂-rich conditions can be created around the complete pallet load. The treatment protocol must be matched to the target insect, product temperature and required exposure time. For applications specifically focused on insect treatment, please read the Non-chemical insect treatment page for requirements and further guidance.

Yes, incoming pallet loads can be enclosed immediately, helping isolate potentially infested goods from the surrounding warehouse while inspection or treatment takes place. For applications specifically focused on insect treatment, please read the non-chemical insect treatment page for requirements and further guidance.

The integrated vQm Two-Way Valve is connected to a vQm Conditioning Unit. Air can then be extracted and nitrogen, CO₂ or a selected gas mixture introduced through the same connection point.

Yes, wrapping Liners can be supplied in different dimensions to suit the pallet size, load height and packaging configuration.

The circumference of the common wrapping liners is 448cm, so a Euro pallet can be placed inside after the wrapping liner is opened, e.g. on another pallet with carton sheet. Before placing the full pallet load, a re-usable pallet protection sheet of vQm should be placed to protect the wrapping liner from being damaged by the pallet. Once all sides of the pallet protection sheets are closed with Velcro tape, the wrapping liner can be pulled up and sealed. Please note that in these cases only a modest vacuum level of up to 500hpa (absolute) can be applied. If the goods are on industrial CP9 pallets, Hood Liners of vQm can be used to wrap the full pallet, in combination with the pallet protection sheets.

Yes, a reliable final seal is essential for maintaining the atmosphere.

Yes, the Wrapping Liner can be used with both units. The appropriate conditioning equipment depends on the product, package volume and required processing conditions.

Protect complete pallet loads without opening or repacking the individual products.
