Globally, and across industries, pouch\nfilling machines<\/a><\/strong> are a popular choice for viscous\ncondiments packing <\/strong>and viscous ready to eat foods<\/strong>\nlike tomato ketchup. Tomato ketchup packing<\/strong> is usually done in\ntwo ways- in tear away or standee pouches, or in High Density Polyethylene\n(HDPE) bottles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In either case, the tomato\nketchup packaging<\/a><\/strong> needs to be robust and leak-proof. Hence the\nneed for superior quality packing machinery<\/strong>. Pouches are\nflexible, lightweight bags that offer many advantages over traditional\npackaging such as metal cans or glass bottle packing.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Types of Ketchup Packing<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are two major types of liquid pouch filling machines: vertical form\nfill seal (VFFS)<\/a> and horizontal\nform fill seal (HFFS) packing machines<\/a>.<\/strong> The filled and sealed bag\nis cut away. As is evident in many tomato sauce\/ketchup brands, the top seal on\nthe first bag becomes the bottom of the next bag, and the process repeats. The\ncut pouch falls to a collection system, typically a belt conveyor that brings\nthe pouch to the next packaging step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ketchup packing<\/strong> is generally referred to as \u2018flexible\npackaging\u2019 or \u2018sachet packing\u2019<\/strong> as opposed to \u2018bottle and jar packing\u2019<\/strong>\nwhich is rigid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flexible packaging<\/strong> offers several advantages: it uses less\nmaterial, needs less energy during formation, and produces less greenhouse\ngases during manufacturing. Being lightweight & unbreakable, it is\neconomical to pack, store, and transport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
