Agriculture and Food Equipment Business
MAX's unique binding equipment is playing important roles in the fields of Agriculture (=A) and the Food Industry (=F).
MAX's "AF" product line started in 1969 with the launch of "TAPENER," a tape tying tool for use in agriculture and gardening. Its unique product development ideas were passed down to products such as "CONI-CLIPPER" and "PACKNER," bag closing tools which satisfy the demands for ensuring safety and security of foods, and "OBIMARU," a vegetable binding tool. These AF products have evolved along with dedicated consumables and have sold well over the years. Among such products, "TAPENER" has been used not only in Japan, but also overseas in regions such as Europe, America and Asia.
"Light Effort TAPENER" has undergone a dramatic evolution.
“It would be nice if we could do tape-tying easier with less effort”– We responded to such requests by developing the “Light Eort TAPENER HT-R series.” Its main unit is far lighter than that of the original product and requires less effort to conduct tape binding. It has become a favorite tool of farmers around the world. Furthermore, in response to growing awareness of the environment and the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), we began marketing an environmentally friendly “paper tape” that decomposes in soil in about three months exclusively for “TAPENER”. We will continue to actively adopt environmentally friendly materials and contribute to the achievement of the SDGs.
The bag closing tool "CONI-CLIPPER" can greatly reduce fatigue of workers.
"CONI-CLIPPER” is a bag closing tool for produce and other food products that delivers greater packaging eiciency, and “CONI-CLIP” is a dedicated binding consumable for “CONI-CLIPPER” that makes package opening easier. In 2022, we launched “BIOMASS CONI-CLIP,” an environmentally friendly product made of biomass material.
