What Is VFFS Sachet Packaging?
The VFFS process is an automated packaging method that forms, fills, and seals sachets in a continuous vertical operation. It begins with a roll of flat film, which is shaped into a tube. The bottom of the tube is sealed to create the base of the sachet, after which the product is dispensed into the formed pouch. Once filled, the top of the sachet is sealed, completing the packaging process. This method is highly efficient, capable of producing up to 120 sachets per minute, depending on the product and machine configuration. The Vertical Fill Form and Seal technique ensures precise portion control and consistent packaging, making it ideal for free-flowing products like powders and granules.
Benefits of VFFS Sachets for Food Packaging
Adopting VFFS sachets for your packaging offers several benefits. Firstly, the airtight seals produced by this method help maintain product freshness and extend shelf life, which is crucial for items like spices and supplements. Secondly, the automation of this process reduces labour costs and minimises human error, enhancing overall production efficiency. Tracability data is directly printed on each sachet via thermal transfer ribbon. Additionally, the flexibility of Vertical Fill Form and Seal machines allows for the use of various packaging materials and the creation of different VFFS sachets in a range of sizes and styles, catering to specific branding and product needs.
