Our products have been used for many years by OEMs and were certified in accordance with their security standards. The performance of van floorings and van liners in a crash test depends on many factors such as car body, type of fastening system, superstructures, etc. and has to be checked in every individual case. Possibly, you should test the van flooring and van liners in accordance with your individual, special requirements.

Yes, the product passed with very good results. During the test a lattice box with a total weight of 1000 kg was shaken and stabbed on the Con-Pearl^® van flooring. Forces up to 10 G were generated– our van ply lining stood up without appreciable compressions.

After several tests with different dowel solutions, we recommend drive-in nuts on the backside, TSSD Ejot-dowel, screwed inserts (Rampa-fittings) and hollow dowel for fastening.

Usual screws without any additional dowel systems are not suitable for perfect fastening.

The extraction values are low. The „Rampa-Muffen“ have extraction values to a maximum of 1.000 N with a diameter around 60 mm. The rear drive -in nuts hold a multiple of the „Rampa-Muffen“. Further information may be obtained on our development team:

„The new Con-Pearl^® van flooring and van liners installed in our Sprinter last year is extremely robust and free of mould. The material is tough and can withstand the daily, hard stresses on construction sites.
Thomas Dornieden, Dornieden ESTRICH

The van flooring is easily cleaned with conventional floor cleaner (solvent-free). Industrial cleaners are suitable for cleaning as well. The surface remains unaffected.

Even with intensive use, the superior look in all variants of the Con-Pearl^® ply lining (Allround, Strong, Safestep) remains intact.

All layers of the base plate of vehicle floors have a uniform colour, so that slight damages on the surface don’t stand out – this is a significant benefit compared to wooden floors. In case of damages to wood flooring, the wood will be clearly visible and the floor will be susceptible to mould and corrosion.

Our van flooring is available with three high-quality surfaces, Strong – Allround- Safestep. An aluminum rail can be installed as decorative edging and for extra protection.

Yes, an aluminium rail can be affixed at ground level upon request.

We manufacture the van ply linings and side linings according to customer orders.

The reuse and the return are the main features of multi-way packaging. For this purpose, the containers can be folded to save space, which results in many efficiency advantages.

In contrast, one-way packaging has to be purchased and disposed of again and again. This goes along with higher space requirements, higher costs, and last but not least, with a lower utility profit of one-way packaging.

Also considering the respective company situation (purchase price, handling, losses, shrinkage, damages, personnel costs etc…), multi-way packaging is the more efficient alternative in many cases.

Furthermore, there is the possibility to outsource the entire transport management to a logistics service company to not have any work with the return. The logistics companies often also offer services such as tracking, cleaning, repairing and allocation.

Yes, the pallet containers can be used in high rack storage systems. Please let us look at the conditions in your high rack storage and let us coordinate the necessary adjustments.

For safeguarding, we can initiate an individual assessment with a certified testing laboratory for you.

Our plastic gaylords can always be equipped with RFID tags in label form. The „combi label“ which has both a barcode and a RFID transponder has proven successful.

Thee Con-Pearl^® sleeve packs are very durable. The containers have been in use for more than 15 years at many of our customers.

The exact load of each special container depends on the individual sleeve configuration. To design a suitable box for your application, an exact specifications profile needs to be determined.

Proper handling is the prerequisite to keep the pallet containers in a good condition. However, should a sleeve pack be damaged, individual parts can be replaced. If needed, the sleeve can be repaired through welding. We will gladly refer you to one of our partner companies that can be contacted in those cases.

Con-Pearl^® packaging is highly flexible. Besides many sizes, forms and colors, additional components can be used in Con-Pearl^®. Components and dunnage with individual shapes made from different materials such as foam, textile or also Con-Pearl^® can be used in Con-Pearl^® containers.

If required, edged Con-Pearl^® sleeves with fixed corners can be used for containers with textile dunnage. This way, sleeve packs with dunnage can be folded to save space and also protect the inner dunnage at the same time.

We are specialists in the field of designing packaging solutions. We would like to design and visualize your individual dunnage in 3D for you.

The risk of injury in handling Con-Pearl^® containers is very low. However, as a general rule, gloves should be worn when handling all packaging systems.

When using our plastic gaylord containers, there is no risk of protruding wires and of jamming in metal hinges, as is the case with wire pallet cages. In addition, there is no risk of injury from wood chips. Besides, Con-Pearl^® returnable packaging is a lot lighter than wire pallet cages and load carriers made from wood.

Measured in terms of value retention and period of use, the Con-Pearl^® plastic gaylords are much cheaper than comparable returnable packaging made from steel or wood.

Compared to one-way packaging, there is no better alternative in terms of costs/benefits in many cases.

Very often, the ROI can already be achieved in one year. The cost trends for both alternatives are different. In each individual case, it depends on the costs of the particular system, the number of systems needed, the cycling rate and the handling costs.

Typical course of one-way and multi-way packaging

A clear statement about sustainability is always difficult. What is certain is that our products are made from high-quality regranulate. Our sleeve packs have a very long lifetime (about 15 years) and are 100{784cd98a86830b8082f142a583a145d13f460e156fadce497235fb935e582680} recyclable. This cycle has been realized at many of our big customers.

Bulk container is a logistics term used for lattice boxes, plastic gaylord boxes and pallets. It is the opposite of small load containers. We define bulk containers as big boxes with minimum dimensions of 800*600*x mm or larger. All of our bulk containers are collapsible.

According to DIN 30781 a load carrier is a carrying device for integrating goods into one cargo unit. Load carriers especially include the carrying transportation devices of pallets, bulk containers and vehicles (semitrailers). They allow easy reloading of the cargo units and thereby support the efficiency and speed of the transport chain.

A pallet container is a box which is basically built on the construct of a pallet and combines the features of a pallet with the features of a box. Our pallet boxes are made of plastic.

A collapsible pallet box is a gaylord box which can be folded for volume reduction at return. Generally, the height of the pallet sleeve can be reduced before or after usage. Other alternatives to collapsible plastic gaylords are possible. The volume of a Con-Pearl^® gaylord box can be reduced up to 80{784cd98a86830b8082f142a583a145d13f460e156fadce497235fb935e582680}.

Storage containers are a group of boxes for storing different materials and/or products. Often, storage containers are adjusted to the requirements of the storage goods. Our plastic storage containers are very stable, stackable and protect the goods from weather conditions such as wind or rain.

ESD means ElectroStatic Discharge or Electrostatically Sensitive Devices. A ESD plastic pallet box protects the transported goods from electrostatic discharge. Con-Pearl NA Inc. offers every gaylord box and pallet sleeve also with ESD protection.

Together with a lid and a pallet, a pallet sleeve builds one packaging system, or one pallet container / one sleeve pack. Our pallet sleeves are made of Con-Pearl®. We deliver the sleeves for all pallet sizes in individual dimensions. The pallet sleeves are foldable and therefore space-saving at return.

Logistics boxes are a group of containers for storing and shipping different materials and/or goods. Our collapsible bulk containers are perfect returnable packaging solutions, because their volume is reduced up to 80{784cd98a86830b8082f142a583a145d13f460e156fadce497235fb935e582680} at return, and transport costs are reduced.

Pallets made of plastics can be differentiated into injection moulded pallets and deep drawn pallets. Injection moulded plastic pallets are more stable , shapely and stronger. Deep drawn plastic pallets are much cheaper to manufacture. Our pallet container Twin SHEET Box has such a pallet.

It is the whole of a packaging container and packaging aids.

It is a good that should be packed.

Aids, which help, together with the packaging container, to close the package. (e.g. nails, tapes, staples)

Products made out of packaging material, which are intended to wrap or stick to the package content, so that they are transportable, storable and able to be sold.

Con-Pearl^® is the brand name of our corrugated plastic sheet. Con-Pearl^® is a tri-laminate polypropylene board. The three layers are connected by thermo lamination -just with pressure and heat. No adhesives are used. That´s why Con-Pearl^® lightweight boards are 100{784cd98a86830b8082f142a583a145d13f460e156fadce497235fb935e582680} recyclable.

A corrugated plastic sheet is a tri-laminate plastic board with a wavy sheet between the two outer sheets .The corrugated sheet builds cavities in the plastic board making them very lightweight. Con-Pearl^® is the brand name of our lightweight board. It is made of polypropylene and completely without adhesives. Our corrugated plastic sheets are available in different colours, dimensions and cuttings. The lightweight boards are especially used to manufacture returnable packaging and automotive parts such as van liners and van ply linings.

With the process of coextrusion, two plastics of the same, a similar or a related kind can be combined. Therefore the features of two materials can be combined in the separate layers of the sandwich structure.

In one single work step, the plasticized materials are superimposed by two separate extruders and connected to one inseparable unit – the coex film. In a coex film we can for example combine the anti-skid properties of TPO in the upper film with the stability of polypropylene in the non-visible backing film, as we implement it in our van flooring versions “Allround” and “Safestep”. Furthermore the economical advantages of a regenerated film can be combined with the custom-designed colours or surfaces on the coextruded visible side.

This is done completely without adhesives so that there is no further process step necessary to produce this coex film. Furthermore the emissions properties such as smell and fogging is improved compared to multilayer films laminated with adhesives.

Con-Pearl NA Inc. / friedola TECH GmbH is the only supplier in the sector of corrugated plastic sheeting that is able to apply this process.

Con-Cover™ is our product range of foils, bi- and tri-laminates. A bilaminate is a foil coated with at least one textile. By coating another textile on the other side of the foil, a tri-laminate is generated. The inner foil can be a coex-film and consequently four material properties can be combined.

Optimized Con-Pearl^® is the evolution of the Con-Pearl^® corrugated plastic sheets with the result of a strongly improved pressure stability on the plane surface. With up to 1 tonne load capacity, the stability of optimized Con-Pearl^® is comparable to wood. All of our standard ply linings are made of optimized Con-Pearl^®.

Con-Pearl^® van floorings and van liners can be processed in various ways:

• laser cutting
• waterjet cutting
• milling
• stamping
• sawing

Yes, at all processing methods except for laser and water jet cutting, because the material starts to melt over 164 degrees Celsius.
