Do AREA machines have insurance coverage?

Yes, they do. The warranty covers faulty parts and is valid for 12 months.


Are leasing and operating leasing agreements possible?

Machines can be certainly purchased with a leasing agreement or rented with an operating leasing agreement (directly in Italy, or through our dealers network abroad). In the former case, customers should inquire about leasing opportunities at their bank. In the latter case, Area and its dealers support their customers financially by offering operating leasing agreements that include transport, installation, period maintenance and supply of stretch film for the entire rental period.


Does AREA manufacture standardised products?

Although our portfolio does include some standardised machines, our main strength is our customisation service, which we offer based on several years of experience. 


Does the installation of AREA machines require special structural systems?

No, it does not. Our machines can be completely assembled with commonly available equipment.


Does AREA provide customer service?

Yes, both directly and through its dealers network.


Does the installation of AREA machines require specially trained personnel? Is it necessary to attend long training sessions?

No. On the one hand, semi-automatic machines can be truly considered as “plug-and-play” devices. The mechanical installation of automatic machines, on the other hand, is normally performed autonomously by the customer, which means that our contribution is usually limited to commissioning and training; the time required by these operations depends on the complexity of the machine, but it usually ranges from a couple of days to one week.


Are AREA machines CE-marked?

Yes, all our automatic and semi-automatic wrapping machines  are designed, manufactured and packaged at our facility in Rodano (Milan, Italy), and are CE-marked. This means that they fulfil all legal requirements and meet every safety standard required in the industry.


Are consumables easy to find?

Yes, absolutely. Area machines work with a product that, being recoverable, recyclable, economical and ecological, is one of the most commonly used in the packaging industry.


Does flexible-format product change entail downtimes and waste of time?  

Another peculiar feature of our machines is that format change can be eliminated, and hence that it is possible to process products of different sizes without interruption.


Can complementary packaging be disposed of?

Yes, today most packaging can be disposed of.

– If straps are currently used for packaging, it is certainly possible to retrieve cardboard corners;
– If a box packaging system is currently used together with polystyrene chips and air bubble film, these fillers can certainly be disposed of;


What are the economic benefits of using Area Packaging machines?

– You can cut down up to 50% of consumables costs (stretch film)
– You can cut down up to 90% of electricity costs


In which sectors does Area operate?

AREA is aimed primarily at those sectors that have the need to pack products that are developed by the length, so it is the ideal partner for the wood industry (furniture and paneling, doors and windows), steel (pipes and sheet ), for the construction industry (sandwich panels), for aluminum (profiles) and many others.
