Universal Pack designs packaging machines and cartoning lines for nutraceutical powders and granules in stick packs in any shape and size.

Universal Pack designs and builds stick pack and sachet packaging machines and cartoning lines for nutraceutical powders and granules. Understanding the needs of our customers is the first step in creating and designing solutions that meet their satisfaction in terms of flexibility, reliability and efficiency. A wide range of stick pack and sachet shapes is available.

We provide our nutraceutical packaging machines for powders and granules with auger or basculating dosing systems. On one hand, auger provides high dosing accuracy of non-free-flowing powders. On the other hand, basculating dosing supports high-speed packaging operations and higher output capacity of free-flowing powders and granules. Therefore, the application of auger or basculating depends on the product composition and flowability.
Moreover, we designed bag-in-bag sealing block to package multiple sachets in a single sachet.

We design our solutions for nutraceutical powders and granules such as activated carbon, ascorbic acid, baking soda, citric acid, dextrose, digestive salts, food and dietary supplements, functional foods, oral rehydration salts, sports and vitamin supplements, lactose powder and probiotics.

Nutraceutical Requirements

As fundamental parts of the safety measures in the pharmaceutical industry, we can provide security systems to manage access and recorded production data. They can manage different levels of access (e.g. operator, factory, administration) making the machinery compliant with CFR 21 part 11 regulation.

The experience we have acquired in our long standing partnerships with major pharmaceutical corporations helped us develop the most suitable systems in terms of production management, product traceability and compliance with the latest regulations. This process of constant growth and enhancement is reflected in our high-quality integrated automatic packaging lines and a wide range of accessories to increase quality control.

Our internal laboratory analyzes your product and laminate to design and build the best solution for your needs. After internal tests and a thorough design review, we can manufacture your customized machine.

Which Formats are Suitable for Packaging Nutraceutical Powders & Granules?

Our machines and lines are specifically dedicated to single-dose packages like stick packs and sachets. For example, we can dose from 0.1 up to 100 g of nutraceutical powders & granules in a single pack, with dimensions that vary according to your marketing goals, nature of the products and production requirements.

In packaging lines for cartoning, our systems allow you to place from 1 to more than 100 sachets or stick packs in the same carton. We have developed patented counting units for any number of packages to be picked and placed into cartons. In recent years, our philosophy is to save as much material and product as possible, both for economic and environmental sustainability.

Powders & Granules

Which Laminates are Suitable for Packaging Nutraceutical Powders & Granules?

Our machines can process all typical heat-sealable composite films, for example: PAP-PE (Paper – Polyethylene); PAP-ALU-PE (Paper – Aluminum – Polyethylene); PET-ALU-PE (polyethylene terephthalate – aluminum – polyethylene) and cold-sealable materials. Our machines can also package sustainable laminates such as PP (Polypropylene), PLA (Polylactic Acid), PAP (Paper), Bio-PE (Bio-based polyethylene), and more on request.
