Food wrapping machine
The purpose of overwrapping within the food packaging machinery sector is to improve shelf life and to deliver multipacking convenience. The ability of Overwrap to use both tear tape and printed film enables the production of retail multipacks which are easy to open as well as being ideal for conveying extra marketing messages. Overwrap can also lead to a reduction in packaging material used by replacing expensive card with low cost film. The extra benefit of this style of food packaging is that the product is clearly visible to the consumer, enhancing its shelf appeal.
The multipacking of dry powder pouches or sachets makes extensive use of overwrapping. Pouches are produced at speeds of up to 1500 per minute. Marden Edwards food packaging machinery can then collate these products into groups from three to twenty and produce a cost effective, attractive retail pack which is less expensive than using a carton.
