Germany’s Bosch Packaging Technology is set to launch its integrated system solution for liquid, viscous and pumpable foods at Pack Expo International 2016, which will be held in November in Chicago, Illinois, US.
The wrap-around carton solution, known as Certiwrap Elite, has been developed by Bosch in partnership with fill and seal machinery producer Osgood and packaging equipment provider Kliklok-Woodman.
Designed to meet the demand for containers in wrap-around cartons, the new fill and seal equipment can reduce downtime for pre-made containers.
Compliant with 3-A sanitary standards (3-A SSI), Certiwrap Elite's innovative O-ring-free pistons help decrease cleaning-in-place (CIP) time and remove the risk of product recalls.
Bosch plans to conduct live demonstrations for the new solution, such as packing two yogurt cups in a cost-efficient wrap-around carton.
Bosch Packaging Technology (Kliklok-Woodman) product manager secondary packaging and marketing director Janet Darnley said: “One of the key benefits of being a part of the Bosch Group, is the ability to mix and match primary and secondary packaging offerings to create truly unique solutions, which answer specific market and consumer needs.
