Powders Packaging
PFM offers customized solutions for feeding, weighing and packaging powder products, ensuring precise dosing and reliable production performance. Designed for flexibility and efficiency, PFM machines enable fast format changes while delivering robust, airtight packages.
Example of powder products:
Food Powders
PFM provides Integrated multihead or auger dosing systems with VFFS and HFFS Stand Up Pouch machinery for milk powder and by-products, flour, coffee powders and granules, cocoa and chocolate powder, tea and herbal infusions, baby food powder, dietary supplements, starches, egg powder and sugars such as dextrose and fructose.
Flour
Fine powders such as flour and starch generate dust and static buildup that can affect dosing accuracy and sealing quality. PFM auger or multihead filling systems with anti-static films and controlled sealing environments ensure clean, precise and reliable packaging.
Baby food (powder)
Oily particles and aroma volatility require strong oxygen barriers and airtight sealing. PFM valve pouch, vacuum and high-barrier laminate solutions help preserve freshness, aroma and product integrity throughout distribution.
Animal feed (pellets & granules)
Delicate structures and oxidation sensitivity demand controlled atmosphere packaging and gentle handling. PFM stand-up pouch solutions with zipper options, MAP or vacuum packaging help retain aroma, freshness and product quality.
Industrial Powders
PFM provides complete packaging solutions for industrial powders including glues and resins, tanning powders, textile dyes, paper whiteners, rubber crumbs, cosmetics and detergents, plastic resin blends, cleaning powders, ceramic powders, agrochemicals, glass powders and pyrotechnic salts. Ensure hermetic seals and hygienic, sanitizable machines.
Advanced flexible packaging for the powders industry
Powder packaging presents complex challenges related to dust generation, moisture sensitivity and product flow behavior. Hygroscopic powders require protection from humidity, fine particles can contaminate sealing areas, and oily or sticky powders demand controlled dosing and anti adhesion solutions. Different industries also require accurate portioning, product containment and reliable sealing to ensure safety and product stability.
PFM packaging technologies address these needs through precision dosing systems, controlled filling environments and high integrity sealing processes. Vertical and horizontal packaging platforms combined with specialized films enable stable production, accurate weight control and consistent packaging quality across food, chemical and industrial powder applications.
High Precision Dosing and Weighing Systems
MBP multihead weighers and auger fillers ensure accurate filling for free flowing, fine or cohesive powders, reducing product giveaway and improving consistency.
Dust Control and Clean Sealing Performance
Machine configurations minimize powder dispersion and prevent contamination of sealing areas, ensuring reliable package closure and cleaner production environments.
Flexible Packaging Formats
PFM machines produce pillow bags, square bottom bags, stand up pouches and four side seal Steelo bags suitable for both retail and industrial packaging sizes.
