SÜDPACK and SN Maschinenbau present sustainable packaging concept at Fachpack

SÜDPACK and SN Maschinenbau have come together at Fachpack 2022 in Nuremberg to present a versatile Pure-Line portfolio, based on either PP or PE.

The fully recyclable packaging concept by SÜDPACK will be on display on the new rotary form, fill and seal machine FME20 in hall 1 at stand 421 of SN German Pouch-Pack Technology.

In addition to recyclable mono-materials based on polypropylene, the SÜDPACK portfolio also includes solutions made of polyethylene.

Both film structures offer the properties that are necessary for efficient and safe packaging, particularly of food products in doypacks.

The spectrum of applications ranges from grated cheese to air-dried sausages and jerky, to nuts, dried fruit and snacks and right through to coffee, tea, herbs and spices.

Depending on the products to be packaged, the high-performance films can be equipped with different barrier properties. Based on what is needed, the doypacks can be aroma proof and provide optimal protection against moisture, UV radiation or oxygen.

An additional advantage is the machinability of the materials due to their broad sealing range, which results in a high level of process and packaging reliability.

At the same time, the formation of the sealing layer ensures the simple and efficient in-line application of common resealing systems – such as zippers – which are already available on the market for flat bags and doypacks.

The Pure-Line can also be printed using SÜDPACK’s newly developed SPQ printing technology.

SÜDPACK’s sustainable film concept will be presented in Nuremberg on the SN bag packaging machine FME 20.

The latest innovation by SN German Pouch-Pack Technology is an affordable, flexible and compact bag packaging machine for forming, filling and sealing three- and four-side sealed bags and doypacks. The bags can be filled with products of various consistencies using the appropriate dosing devices and sealed. Without any difficulties or loss in speed or quality, modern recyclable materials such as PurePP or PurePE can be processed with an output quantity of up to 180 bags per minute.

The FME 20 is designed to be a simple and efficient bag packaging machine and is very easy to operate.

The central gripper adjustment on the rotary table and the optimised height adjustment of the folding wedge contribute to a reduction of format changeover times.

“We are now in a position to offer our customers solutions that are pioneering in terms of material efficiency, recyclability, renewable raw materials and circular economy,” explained Holger Hoss, who as product manager is responsible for the flow pack solutions at SÜDPACK.

Felix Eberhardi, marketing manager at SN Maschinenbau said the FME 20 bag is ideally suited for mid-range output requirements.

He said”It can easily process mono-materials, such as PurePP and PurePE from SÜDPACK, into high-quality bags and efficiently fill them with food products, such as bulky goods, powder and granules, but also non-food products and lotions.”
