Food & Beverage Packing Solutions
Bakery, snacks, confectionery, dairy, produce and prepared foods — every food category packs into counted pillow packs and sealed pouches, configured per product.
Why Flow Wrapping for Food & Beverage
Food packaging is a freshness question before it is a machine question — the product's shelf life defines the film, and the film defines the format.
Freshness Is the Format
From a single bar to a counted pack of biscuits, the wrap is the shelf life — barrier film, tight seals and registered print in one pass.
Counted by Nature
Food sells by count — one bar, six cakes, a bundle of snacks. Counting and grouping sit ahead of the wrapper in the same line.
Print Carries the Brand
Print-registered film carries branding, ingredients and date coding without a label or tray — the pack is the shelf presence.
Gentle Conveying
Horizontal conveying carries fragile food into the film without drop-and-settle steps — the geometry food was built for.
One Route, Many Categories
Bakery, snacks, confectionery and prepared foods run the same class of machine — the product changes the configuration, not the route.
Industry References
Cadbury Dairy Milk sells as a single flow-wrapped pillow pack — the format that defines confectionery shelves.
Cereal bars sell in cartons with each bar sealed as its own flow-wrapped pillow pack — the counted format inside the box.
References describe publicly available retail pack formats as illustrations — they are not Path Pack customer cases.
Machines for Food & Beverage
One engineering standard across three machine families — flow wrappers, four-side-seal sachet machines and horizontal premade-pouch lines. Every machine below is configured around the product it runs — each card links to the full machine page for detailed specs.

How to Choose a Food Packing Machine
Seven decisions frame the specification. Work them in order and the machine ends up matched to your product — not the other way around.
1. Product Type
Bar, biscuit, cake, tray or produce — geometry and count drive the infeed.
2. Throughput
Match the class to the output your line actually sustains — steady beats headline speed on food lines.
3. Film Material
Barrier against moisture, oxygen and light follows the product's shelf-life target; seal quality decides it.
4. Seal Technology
Positive, repeatable seals validated with your film at speed — a leaking food seal is a rejected pallet.
5. Package Format
Singles, counted packs or tray formats. Format drives film width and grouping.
6. Hygiene and Compliance
Food-contact rules and target-market labelling dictate machine surface materials and permissible film structures.
7. Configuration and Delivery
Date coding, counting and check-weigher integration extends delivery. Spec the label data early.
Frequently Asked Questions
What food products suit flow wrapping?
Counted, rigid-enough products convey into film and seal as pillow packs — from single bars to grouped biscuits and trayed cakes.
Flow wrapping or pouch — which suits food?
Counted singles and grouped items suit flow wrapping; portion packs and refill formats suit sealed pouches. The product and its count decide.
How do food-contact rules affect the choice?
Food-contact compliance covers surface materials, cleanability and film suitability — specify your market's rules before the configuration locks.
What speeds are available for food packing?
Configurations for this format span our full flow-wrapping range — 5 to 300 packs/min. The right class depends on your product, film and format; match speed to what your line actually sustains, not the headline number.
Why Path Pack
We start with the product, not the machine. Every project runs through the same nine-step engineering process — product, format, film, speed, feeding, sealing, structure, integration, testing — before a configuration is quoted.
Your products run on real machines with your film at your target speed before anything ships. Category formats are exactly what the configuration review is for.
Evaluate your requirements with our online tools: the machine finder and bag calculator narrow the configuration before you ever talk to us.
