For the second consecutive year, Result Group has been honoured with the prestigious WorldStar award, this time for its Herma InNo Liner Linerless Labelling System.
Hanes Australasia, a major player in the apparel industry with brands like Bonds and Champion, has been a forerunner in adopting this sustainable solution, with the commitment to achieving zero waste by 2025 aligning perfectly with the eco-friendly nature of the Herma InNo Liner.
With the installation of multiple Herma InNo Liner units, Hanes has already seen a reduction of over two tonnes of waste, highlighting the system’s effectiveness.
The system, operational at Hanes Australasia’s Melbourne Distribution Centre, functions without the need for liner materials or silicon coatings, therefore eliminating a significant source of waste.
The partnership between Herma and Result is grounded in a shared vision of bringing sustainable, efficient and innovative packaging solutions to the market, and has been instrumental in introducing Herma’s products to a wider audience.
“In a world where sustainability is not just a goal but a necessity, the Herma InNo Liner system stands as a testament to innovation meeting purpose,” said Michael Dossor, group general manager at Result Group.
“Our partnership with Herma and the early adoption by Hanes demonstrates a shared vision of progress and responsibility.
“Winning the WorldStar award for the second consecutive year is a recognition of our commitment to revolutionise packaging with sustainable and groundbreaking solutions and technology.”
Dossor emphasises the company’s dedication to sourcing innovative global solutions. He said Herma’s breakthrough in multi-layer adhesive technology, combined with efficient applicator design, has made the InNo Liner a gamechanger in tertiary carton labelling.
“Our relationship with Herma goes beyond the mere distribution of a product. It’s a partnership that combines Herma’s expertise in self-adhesive label technology with our insights into the Australasian market’s needs,” he said.
“This system is more than just a sustainable option – it enhances the supply chain with capabilities for advanced tracking and reduced carbon footprint, aligning with global sustainability goals, and in a space where sustainable options sometimes cost more, the Herma InNo Liner does not, it saves at every label.”
The partnership between Herma and Result extends beyond the InNo Liner machine. Together, the companies are continuously exploring new technologies and solutions to meet the evolving needs of the packaging and labelling industry.
“As we continue to work together, Herma and Result are setting new benchmarks in the packaging industry,” Dossor added.
“The partnership is a vivid example of how collaboration can drive technological advancement and sustainable practices, benefiting not only the industries they serve, but also contributing to a more environmentally conscious world.
“As we move forward, Result will continue to be at the forefront of introducing cutting-edge solutions, bridging the gap between global innovations and local market needs, and setting new benchmarks in the packaging industry.”
The innovative Herma InNo Liner machine, distributed exclusively in Australia and New Zealand by Result Group, will be showcased at the company’s APPEX stand (E030) from 12-15 March.
