Edda builds automatic wrapping machines and lines for bed bases, divan bases, headboards and upholstered bedroom panels. Each piece passes through the machine on a conveyor and comes out covered in a cushioning layer of air bubble film or foam and a tight layer of stretch film – the same protection on every piece, without hand wrapping at the end of the line.
Why bed bases are hard to pack by hand
Bed bases and headboards are large, fairly light and soft on the outside. Fabric, faux leather and velvet covers mark easily, corners take the knocks in handling, and the pieces are often shipped directly to retailers or end customers, where every scuff becomes a complaint. Hand wrapping a 2-metre divan base in bubble film and stretch film takes two people and gives a different result on every piece.
- Hand wrapping is slow and needs several people per shift at the end of upholstery production.
- Fabric and faux leather covers pick up dirt and marks when film is loose or open at the ends.
- Corners and edges are damaged when the cushioning layer is uneven.
- Film use is hard to control when every operator wraps differently.
Which machine for which bed base?
The right machine depends on the cross-section of your largest base, the cover material and whether you need a cushioning layer under the stretch film.
Spinner 1800 S BN
Bed bases – bubble and stretch
Air bubble film up to 2000 mm wide and stretch film in one pass. Min. 700 × 200 × 1000 mm, unlimited length.
Spinner 1800 Sofa Line
Upholstered bases and headboards
Fully automatic line: bubble film or foam, then orbital stretch film, for upholstered bedroom furniture.
Artemis
Modular film covering line
Covers bases, headboards and wardrobes in PE film up to 2000 mm wide, with an optional bubble or foam unit. Up to 1300 × 1200 mm.
Spinner 1500 S BN
Headboards and slim panels
Bubble film up to 1350 mm wide and stretch film in one pass, from 200 × 18 × 700 mm.
Olympia 150 S
Stretch film only
Orbital stretch wrapper for bed bases, bedroom furniture and panels that do not need a bubble layer.
Spinner 2200 S
Large bases and stacks
For oversized bases and stacks of bases from 700 × 400 × 2000 mm, with 500 mm stretch film.
Two layers in a single pass
On BN models and on the Spinner 1800 Sofa Line, the bed base first passes through the air bubble film unit. The film is laid over the piece and cut by a heated cutting and welding system working between 50 and 150 °C; the unit accepts PE film, PE air bubble film, PE foam film or PVC film. The base then travels through the orbital ring, which winds stretch film around it in a continuous spiral and holds the cushioning layer tightly in place.
Conveyor speed, ring speed and film overlap are set on the operator panel for each model, so a single-size divan, a king-size base and a tall headboard can run on the same machine by changing settings.
Artemis works differently: instead of an orbital ring it covers the piece in wide PE film on a 4 m belt conveyor, which suits pieces that should not be wrapped in a spiral or that need a smooth outer film.
Does your bed base fit?
Enter the cross-section of your largest base. The ring is circular, so the maximum width depends on the height.
Product length is unlimited. For bases outside this range, the Spinner 2200 S and Artemis offer larger openings.
Does your product fit?
Enter the cross-section of your product. The ring is circular, so the maximum width depends on the height.

What to check when choosing a bed base wrapping machine
- Cross-section: the widest and tallest base or headboard you ship – check it with the calculator above.
- Cover material: fabric, velvet and faux leather usually need a bubble or foam layer under the stretch film.
- Product mix: how many sizes run on the same line, and how often you change model.
- Output: bases per shift and the speed of the upholstery line in front of the wrapper.
- Shipping: direct-to-consumer and retail deliveries need more protection than full-truck shipments.
- Layout: infeed and outfeed space, working height and how pieces are loaded onto the conveyor.
Frequently asked questions
Can bed bases be wrapped in bubble film and stretch film in one pass?
Yes. Our BN models and the Spinner 1800 Sofa Line apply a cushioning layer and a stretch film layer in a single pass, with no hand wrapping.
What is the minimum bed base size?
700 × 200 × 1000 mm (W × H × L) on the Spinner 1800 S BN and 700 × 200 × 1200 mm on the Spinner 1800 Sofa Line. Smaller pieces such as headboards fit the Spinner 1500 S BN from 200 × 18 × 700 mm.
Which films can be used for the cushioning layer?
PE film, PE air bubble film, PE foam film or PVC film, cut and sealed by a heated unit at 50–150 °C. The outer layer is 23–35 micron stretch film up to 250 mm wide.
Do you also pack mattresses?
Our machines are designed for bed bases, divans, headboards and upholstered panels. If you also want to pack mattresses, send us the dimensions and we will tell you honestly whether one of our machines fits.
What is the difference between Artemis and the Spinner lines?
Spinner machines wrap stretch film around the piece in a spiral through a rotating ring. Artemis covers the piece in wide PE film on a belt conveyor, with an optional bubble or foam unit, for products up to 1300 mm wide and 1200 mm high.
