A Sustainable Competitive Advantage for Food Manufacturers

The shift towards increasingly individualized packaging and sustainable materials is especially noticeable in the food industry. Companies that want to face these market trends with confidence need a high degree of flexibility in their production. With a Flowpacker from Schubert, manufacturers in the food sector can position themselves strongly to meet these and future requirements. This is because the robot-assisted flow-wrapping machine is so flexible that it can easily keep up with the new packaging trends. It is even possible to switch between conventional and recyclable films or trays on a single line. This is one of the reasons why a long-established manufacturer from France also packs its diverse range of biscuits and pastries with a new Flowpacker.

Today, no food manufacturer can afford to ignore the market’s need for rapidly changing, individually tailored packaging solutions that also conserve resources. The latter is a special challenge in the case of packaging into flowpacks. There is a good reason why composite films have conquered the world thanks to their ease of processing and product-protecting properties. However, the shift towards materials that are more recyclable will become increasingly pronounced and is likely to be irreversible in the long term. The answer to these developments is flexibility. Companies that can change their packaging processes quickly and as needed gain a competitive edge in the marketplace, especially when it comes to environmentally conscious consumers and future trends. With the Flowpacker flow- wrapping machine from Schubert, manufacturers of almost any product can capitalize on a packaging machine that combines effective packaging solutions with extremely variable processes – thanks to its modular design and the use of highly developed robot technology.
