TAB Industries is proud to announce that the TAB Wrapper Tornado was awarded the Material Handling Product News (MHPN) and Modern Material Handling (MH247) “Product of the Year” award for the second time, winning in both 2024 and 2018. This achievement highlights the TAB Wrapper Tornado’s ongoing excellence in material handling innovation and its significant impact on manufacturing, distribution centers, and warehouses worldwide. 

What Makes This Award Significant

The Material Handling Product News “Product of the Year” award program, now in its fifth year, represents one of the most respected recognitions in the material handling industry. Jointly presented by Material Handling Product News (MHPN) and Modern Material Handling (MH247), these awards celebrate and highlight the most innovative material handling products that are shaping the future of logistics and warehouse operations.

What makes this recognition particularly meaningful is the selection process. Unlike many industry awards determined by panels or committees, the MHPN “Product of the Year” awards are determined through a voting process from their readers. This means that real material handling professionals — the people who use products like the TAB Wrapper daily in their operations — vote for their favorite solutions across various categories, including automated storage, automatic data capture, conveyors, and stretch wrapping equipment.

The nature of this award ensures that the winners truly represent products that deliver exceptional value, reliability, and innovation. For the TAB Wrapper Tornado to win twice demonstrates our commitment to excellence and continued innovation that resonates with industry professionals year after year.

Why the TAB Wrapper Tornado Stands Out

The TAB Wrapper Tornado winning this award twice isn’t coincidental; this reflects the product’s unique position in the market and its ability to quickly automate and solve wrapping challenges that many industries face when wrapping their products on pallets:

Innovation in Automation: The TAB Wrapper Tornado incorporates automated technology that streamlines the pallet wrapping process, reducing labor costs while improving load stability and protection.

Operational Efficiency: Users report significant improvements in throughput and consistency when implementing the TAB Wrapper Tornado in their operations, allowing for more pallet loads to leave the warehouse in less time. 

Reliability and Durability: Built to withstand the demands of high-volume distribution centers and manufacturing facilities, the TAB Wrapper delivers reliable performance day after day.

Versatility: The system adapts to various load types and sizes, making it an ideal solution for operations handling awkward product sizes and loads. 

TAB Wrapper Automation Options

While the TAB Wrapper Tornado has earned industry recognition with these awards, it represents just one solution within our comprehensive approach to stretch wrapping automation. We offer multiple automation levels designed to match diverse operational requirements and volumes:

Semi-Automatic Solutions – Perfect for operations seeking to improve efficiency while maintaining operator control, these systems enhance wrapping consistency and reduce labor fatigue without requiring major facility modifications.

Fully Automatic Systems – Designed for high-volume facilities that require minimal operator intervention, these solutions integrate seamlessly into existing conveyor systems and automated material handling operations to achieve maximum throughput.

Accessories That Automate  – From wireless remote upgrades to completely automated wrapping lines, TAB Wrapper accessories provide enhanced automation features through our accessories line.

Whether your operation requires basic efficiency improvements or a fully automated integration, the TAB Wrapper is designed to deliver measurable results that meet your needs as your operation grows. 

Customer-Centric Service Drives Success

The TAB Wrapper Tornado’s continuous success stems from our commitment to listening to our customers and continuously working with them to find the best TAB Wrapper solution for their operation. This customer-centric approach ensures that each product addresses our customers’ operational challenges. The awards reflect not just product quality, but TAB Industries’ understanding of what customers actually need in their daily operations.
