UK-based KernPack has entered an agreement to sell and distribute Italy’s General System Pack (GSP) flow wrappers and packaging systems across the UK and Ireland.

KernPack will provide the GSP systems, which include standalone machines and fully automated lines, to food producers and bakeries, as well as non-food related companies.

KernPack general manager Pete Jolley said: “GSP’s global recognition and proven track record, coupled with its technical innovation, were the main reasons it was a perfect fit for us.

 “We wanted to strengthen our wrapping offering to the food and bakery industry and GSP will enable us to offer customers a complete range.

"We believe we can achieve the same success in the UK that GSP currently enjoys elsewhere around the world, focusing on customers’ continual need to become more efficient and achieve an excellent return on investment.

“GSP’s customer-centric philosophy was also a great match with KernPack’s exceptional customer service culture, for which we’ve become well known.”
