At the core of this partnership lies the integration of Fuji Seal's pre-made pouches with Mespack's HF Series machines under One Sales Contract that comprises the commercialisation of pouches, equipment, and its maintenance to maintain high production standards. This seamless integration aims to facilitate the adoption of superior technology and new capacity to packaging firms by reducing the complexity of synchronization and aligning all parties, resulting in the achievement of enhanced productivity and reliability across operations.
Mespack's HF Series machines are renowned for their versatility in filling through the spout, minimising headspace and accommodating diverse pouch sizes and formats to meet varying product and packaging requirements.
