ProAseptic Technologies installs pouch packaging technology
Spanish-based soft packaging machinery manufacturer ProAseptic Technologies has installed a pouch packaging technology for Elle & Vire, a French dairy manufacturer.
Elle & Vire are using the ProAseptic Pro-A2 machinery to create UHT dairy drink products in stand up re-sealable pouches. The machine will be used to sterilise, form, fill and seal the drinks into the pouches. It can handle two pouches per cycle at a speed of up to 6,000 pouches/hour. The Pro-A2 is interchangeable enabling Elle & Vire also use the machine for their UHT cream product range.
Also, the aseptically filled drinks will have a 180-day shelf life while stored at an ambient temperature.
