3S Packaging Technology will be exhibiting Bag-in-Box and Toploading at Interpack
Friday 15. April 2011 - "Bag-in-box is booming. Sixteen realised projects in the past 15 months are a good reason for us to highlight our bag-in-box competence at Interpack", Yvonne Strobel, 3S Marketing Manager says.
According to 3S these projects are coming from China, South-East Asia, the Middle East, Switzerland and Germany. Baby food like milk powder and porridges, cake mixes, loose tea and cereals are the main applications at this.
With cake mixes very often bags of glazing, baking pans and some decoration items add on to the actually product. With milk powder there is always a measuring spoon and most likely also a leaflet to be packed into the folding cartons. Not an easy task with speeds up to 180 cartons per minute.
Shortly after finishing the installation of the all new bag-in-box lines at the nearby new Nestlé Nutrition plant in Biessenhofen, 3S successfully landed another milk powder project in the Allgäu region and only a stones throw away from their own premises.
Company Töpfer in Dietmannsried celebrating its 100th anniversary this year is expanding enormously and replaces major parts of their processing and the entire packaging plant with much higher capacity equipment.
3S is fully responsible for all the packaging lines starting from vertical bagging to cartoning with spoon and leaflet feeding to wrap-around case packing.
3S is going to present one of the Töpfer lines at Interpack. Besides the full servo cartoner SCORPIUS ES200 the all new Robotic Wrap-around Case Packer HERCULES WA30 capable to pack cartons, tins, cans, bottles or aerosols into cases will be in action at the exhibition.
Another 3S topic at the exhibition for their “sweet customers” will be the monobloc toploader CASSIOPEIA IS700 for bar products into display cartons.
