To solidify its global presence, Italian pioneer Microline has outfitted the Al Mulla Group, a distinguished conglomerate based in the United Arab Emirates, with state-of-the-art roll packaging technology.

Founded in 1974, Al Mulla Group has diversified into various sectors such as trade, construction, automotive, marine engineering, and travel & tourism. Among its portfolio is Al Mulla Industries LLC, a leader in the Middle Eastern tissue product conversion market, which maintains continuous process and technology improvements, supported by automated and quality-controlled production systems. Recently, the firm's venture into industrial and commercial roll products necessitated an upgrade of its production unit.

With two decades of customizing solutions for packaging and handling tissue products, Microline emerged as the obvious choice for Al Mulla Group. The Bologna-based manufacturer is renowned for its reliable and high-performance machines, tailored to meet the needs of a global clientele.

Prioritizing Minimal Waste
Microline provided an AL80 horizontal packaging machine, one of the most sought-after in their lineup, a shrink-wrapping tunnel and a feeding sorter. Engineered with the paper industry in mind, the AL80 machine is designed to minimize waste during the packaging cycle without sacrificing performance. The use of ultra-thin films and a waste-free packaging process significantly reduces the need for packaging materials.

One key feature of the AL80 is its ability to handle products gently and precisely, ensuring that even the softest rolls are neither deformed nor embossed. This precision cuts down on production waste and simultaneously boosts productivity and efficiency.

Encouraging Savings
Installed at Al Mulla Industries in December 2023, the machine immediately met expectations with its durable, flexible, and efficient technology. All Microline machines are designed modularly, offering the ability to utilize different feeding systems and accommodate a variety of products. Their solutions offer savings not just in terms of packaging materials but also in energy consumption.

This "Made in Italy" innovation heralds a future where sustainability and efficiency are at the forefront of industrial progress in the Middle East.
