Benco Pack to Supply Aseptic Fill Seal Machine

12 March 2010

Benco Pack said it will supply an aseptic form-fill-seal machine for Nestlé China's new range of UHT milk cream mini portions.

The Italian company said its Miniasepack/32/20 horizontal aseptic machine uses a three-step packaging and filling process.

Containers are thermoformed starting from a roll of multi-layer plastic film, filled with the UHT product, closed by a thermo-sealed peelable lid and then cut to the desired configuration, Benco said.

The company said the machine, which is able to produce up to 36,000 cups per hour, will be used to produce UHT milk cream mini-portions of 10ml.

The machine has an efficiency rate of more than 95%, Benco Pack said.
