Packaging & Availability
- Packaging
- Bobbins are individually tack wrapped for protection, com-plete unwinding of the bobbins, improved handling and to allow optimum transfer from bobbin to bobbin (Creel-Pack). Nominal weights of bobbins vary from 10 to 22 kg. A pallet of size 92cm x 110cm contains 48 bobbins. A 110cm x 110cm pallet contains 64 bobbins. They are stretch wrapped with plastic film for protection.
- Two pallet configurations are available:- Bulk-Pack: standard packaging, consists of individual bob-bins- Creel-Pack: bobbins are connected together for continuous unwinding (no bobbin handling for operators).
Storage & Handling
- Storage
Vertical storage in a cool and dry warehouse into the original packaging is formally recommended. More precisely ideal storage conditions are a temperature between 15°C and 35°C and a relative humidity comprised between 35% and 75%. If these conditions are maintained, the glass fiber product should not undergo significant changes when stored for extended periods of time. It is also strongly recommended to condition it in the work-shop for at least 24 hours before use to prevent condensa-tion. For an optimal processing it is recommended to use the product in ambient conditions (20°C-30°C and a relative humidity of 60%-65%).
