Banding is used to gently yet securely bundle and/or apply a non-adhesive ultrasonically sealed band. Our banding machines are designed to be used in heavy use pharmaceutical and healthcare production environments and are the only ultrasonic machinery on the market.
The ultrasonic weld is fast, clean, efficient, and eliminates the side effects that heat can introduce into your product. The combination of this innovative ultrasonic technology and other customizable features makes ultrasonic banding ideal for many applications in your industry.
Additional benefits of parcel strapping include:
Provide us with a few details in the contact form and we’ll have an experienced packaging consultant show you how banding can reduce your packaging material and labor costs.
From initial inquiry through post-installation service and support, our main goal is to provide each customer with a complete solution. That includes the proper service, parts and, of course, consumable banding materials that run best in our machines. Designed specifically to work in our ultrasonic banding machines, our materials are optimized to keep your operations up and running. We also work diligently to ensure we have the materials in stock when you need them so you can feel confident your packaging materials will always be available.
Our most popular material options include:
Other options include:
All of our materials are recyclable. With banding, minimal materials are needed to label and unitize products, therefore reducing waste. We offer papers, plastics and transparent films, all FDA-approved to come in contact with food and healthcare products. All of our materials can be pre-printed with stunning graphics to suit your branding needs and, with variable data printers, data such as expiration dates can be printed live on the banding material.
Our machines are manufactured by ATS in Switzerland. Felins is one of two master distributors in the US, supporting the 30 midwestern and western states. Sales support, customer service and technical support for your machine will come from Felins in Milwaukee, WI.
Absolutely. Our banders reduce repetitive motion for workers, reduce labor needs and reduce the likelihood of worker injury by removing banding without sharp tools. Clean processing and excellent accessibility make handling and service simple.
Switching to banding reduces landfill waste by using less material, reducing transportation costs and lowering your overall carbon footprint.

We offer non-traditional banding solutions that increase throughput, protect product quality and integrity, and significantly reduce packaging material and labor costs. Regardless of the industry you’re in, we can provide you with bundling equipment to reduce packaging mass, help lower your carbon footprint and improve overall product quality.
The most widely believed myth about banding is that the technology and consumables are too expensive. However, the most widely overlooked statistics (and prices) are those related to post-purchase productivity. Not only does introducing banding (and automation) to a production line reduce labor costs, it decreases material waste from a master carton, helps increase productivity and, ultimately, quickly generates ROI. The majority of our customers have an ROI in 12 months or less.
Banding is a highly sustainable form of bundling and provides a return on investment for the purchase of banding equipment and consumable materials. Switching to banding lowers transportation costs, eliminates product damage and optimizes throughput and productivity.
Yes, our machines are able to run in a cold room. Our ultrasonic banding technology does not require heat to apply the bands, saving energy by not adding unnecessary heat to a cold room.
Inline printers allow for track and trace information, and other variable data, to be printed directly on each band as it’s applied. Smart labels can be incorporated into bands for alternative tracking methods.
