Southgate Global, a leader in the supply of packaging equipment, consumables and servicing in operational logistics and fulfilment, has launched a new Water Activated Tape Dispenser (WAT) to help speed up operations and reduce costs as the demand for e-commerce rises.

The Optimax OM700 WAT Dispenser has been designed specifically by Southgate’s specialist team for fast-paced operational logistics environments, as customers look to increase staff productivity to meet demand. With UK e-commerce sales expected to reach £160.6 billion in 2024 and continue to grow at 4.1 per cent year on year to 2026 resulting in forecast sales of £194 billion by 2027, the need for efficiency in every aspect of operations is vital to give companies a performance edge.

Developed with high-volume, fast-past shipping in mind, the OM700 has quick tape output, outputting 60 metres per minute, pre-set buttons to auto dispense from 15cm to 145cm, a programme mode – to allow configuration of up to 6 different lengths in sequence via the digital display – plus the largest tape capacity in the industry – up to 255mm long and 80mm wide.
