Coveris to showcase sustainable silage films at Agritechnica 2023

These films respond to the agricultural market’s growing demand for environmentally friendly baling solutions

Coveris will present its sustainable stretch film offering for silage bale wrapping: Unterland R and Unterland Crystal at the upcoming Agritechnica 2023, the world’s leading trade fair for agricultural machinery, 12th - 18th November in Hannover, Germany.

Offering enhanced sustainability benefits, these films respond to the agricultural market’s growing demand for environmentally friendly baling solutions. In line with the industry’s needs, both films are manufactured at Coveris Kufstein in Austria, using only renewable resources.

“At Coveris we built our entire sustainability strategy around the vision of No Waste as we believe that fighting waste in all its forms is the driving force of a more sustainable future. Our Unterland stretch films fit into this strategy well and offer the agricultural market what it has been looking for years – a sustainable yet highly effective and protective film for silage bale wrapping’, summarised Martin Wildinger, Coveris’ Agricultural Films Sales Director."

Unlike other films, Unterland R film contains at least 30% recyclate from collected agricultural films, as part of the ERDE initiative. Due to the PCR (Post-Consumer Recycled) content of the film, 20 litres of crude oil can be saved per roll. Thanks to the above factors, farmers can reduce their carbon footprint by 23% and contribute to greater environmental protection simply by switching to Coveris’ Unterland R film.

The multi-layered stretch film ensures the best possible protection for perfect bale wrapping. The film has been tested by trusted Coveris partners all around the world in different weather conditions and using various conventional wrappers. It maintained the exact same quality no matter the environment.
