Using Infrared Light to Revolutionize the Staking Process

Take a look inside the four basic steps of the staking process and discover how Infrastake harnesses infrared light to join plastics together in an innovative way. The process of staking plastic parts has been dominated by three main methods; hot air, thermal, and ultrasonic. Each method has intrinsic strengths and weaknesses with regard to the strength of the joints formed and the minimization of cycle time. The revolutionary InfraStake process was discovered out of a desire for a more effective process for bonding plastic parts. By using infrared energy to heat the plastic and carefully controlling the environment around the plastic boss, the InfraStake process allows for the creation of stronger, more dimensionally stable plastic parts.

Packaging additive increases the shelf life of fresh milk by 100%! Ask me how?

It estimates that food loss and waste costs the global economy $936 billion a year and Nanox is helping to solve this problem using antimicrobial technology to apply mainly in food packaging. Nanox creates a technology platform that can decrease the food waste improving the food shelf-life. Depending on the food, Nanox's products can double the shelf life. NANOX develops, produces and commercializes silver based inorganic antimicrobials (safer and more efficient), which can be incorporated into a wide range of materials, making them free bacteria and fungi. The product needs to be added in the manufacturing process of the products, in other words, in the food packaging case it is necessary to add during the manufacturing process of the packaging. The main benefit for food packaging is to improve the food shelf life and decrease the food waste. We have a case in the fresh milk market where our product extended the fresh milk shelf life from 8 to 16 days. Nanox products have registered in FDA and EPA and available in masterbatch form.
