HIPAC’s HI.DEA<\/strong> dispenser was presented at INAIL<\/strong>, as part of the first “International Conference on Safety & Innovation<\/a><\/em>” held at the agency’s headquarters in Rome from March 11-13, 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the event, HIPAC<\/strong> presented its case-history titled “Ergonomics, workplace safety and pallet stability: the Dea project and the new HI.DEA disp<\/em>enser,” which highlighted the operator benefits of using the innovative HI.DEA<\/strong> dispenser in combination with technical films and in low thicknesses, which guarantee excellent performance with important environmental and economic pluses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the panel dedicated to HIPAC<\/strong>, led by Moreno Busti (HIPAC R&D Manager, pictured above), the results of a study conducted in collaboration with the University of Parma (Unipr<\/strong>) were presented. The study looked at a comparison between a traditional scenario, in which the operator manually wraps a pallet with traditional standard film, and an innovative scenario made possible by the combination of using a technical film with low thickness, no cardboard core, and a high percentage of recycled plastic (555<\/a> Rigid NetRoll with 60% recycled plastic from Post-Consumer- PCR<\/strong>) and the HI.DEA <\/strong>dispenser, which allows the operator to maintain a correct posture during manual wrapping operations, avoiding bending and potentially dangerous positions for the onset of musculoskeletal problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The two scenarios were compared using three official and internationally recognized methodologies, such as the HAPO LEA<\/strong> software based on the RULA <\/strong>(Rapid Upper Limb Assessment, a survey method developed for ergonomic analysis in the workplace) approach, the Hand Wrapper Tester (HWT<\/strong>) system, and the Eumos <\/strong>(European Safe Logistics Association) acceleration test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All three tests recorded results in favor of the new scenario, showing significant savings in film consumption (as much as -55 percent<\/strong>) with important economic, environmental and load stability benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
