Sachet Machines for Powders
Universal Pack designs and builds a wide range of custom-built sachet machines. Our vertical continuous-motion sachet machines can handle a wide range of powders with precise dosing control thanks to our auger dosing system.
Which Dosing Systems are Suitable for Packaging Powders?
Auger guarantees our customers dose dry, dusty and powder, free and non free-flowing products with high filling accuracy, according to their needs. At the same time, auger is suitable for any products with components that make them lumpy or sticky. Therefore, it is possible to precisely adjust the rotational speed and nnumber of auger rotations. This action allows fast and simple adjustments of the operational parameters.
Our sachet machines for powders provide a compact solution combining the high output within a compact footprint. These solutions include many advantages such as high dosing accuracy, reduced wrapping material waste, easy handling and cleaning. Moreover, our user-friendly and modular sachet machines allow our customers to reduce downtime and meet demanding production requirements.

Types of Packages
Formats
Universal Pack sachet machines are specifically dedicated to single-dose packages. For example, we can dose from 0.1 up to 100 g of all kinds of powders & granules in a sachet, with dimensions that vary according to your marketing goals, nature of the products and production requirements.
Moreover, we provide you with the possibility to easily integrate your sachet machine in a Universal Pack packaging line for cartoning. Our lines allow you to place from 1 to more than 100 sachets in the same carton. We have developed patented counting units for any amount 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.
Laminates
Universal Pack sachet packaging machines for powders 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.

Sustainability
Our continuous research in reducing the packaging industry carbon footprint resulted in streamlined machinery design for packing recycled, recyclable and compostable laminates. LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) is used to measure the environmental impact of our products and identify optimal ways to reduce it. It is a 360° analysis that goes beyond the mere packaging produced and involves every step of the packaging machinery production process. We develop our solutions in close collaboration with the main global film suppliers and test them in agreement with major multinational companies in order to provide them with a turnkey solution able to produce more sustainable packages.
