Mespack, a leading manufacturer of sustainable flexible packaging solutions, launched its RM Series at the Snack & Bake Tech Show co-located with InterFoodTech 2024, held from 5 to 7 June 2024, at the Yashobhoomi (IICC) in Dwarka, New Delhi. The 8-station Rotary Machine — RM Series has a production capacity of up to 60 pouches per minute (ppm) and is said to be operational with dosing powder, granules, and pieces of products. The company says it is the best entry-level machine for flexible packaging.
With 30 years of experience in the flexible packaging market, Mespack has established itself as a comprehensive company with the most complete product portfolio in the sector. Mespack offers horizontal equipment (with roll-stock or premade pouches) and vertical systems to produce stick packs, flat pouches, or 3- or 4-side seal sachets, as well as water-soluble pods with Hydroforma machine lines, and end-of-line solutions with services across the globe.
According to the company, the RM260SC offers high efficiency with a 15-minute changeover capability and a remarkably reduced footprint, making it one of the most compact and efficient solutions in its category. This machine is compatible with a wide variety of pouch types and recyclable films, catering to the growing demand for sustainable packaging solutions. Additionally, it includes Mespack Athena, a digital transformation platform designed to help customers gain better control over the packaging processes, enhancing efficiency through data analysis.
The RM260SC comes with several features such as high production capacity of up to 60 ppm, reduced carbon footprint, quick changeover in 15 minutes, carousel system enhancing precision and quality, seamless transition between different packaging formats, and integration with Mespack Athena.
Furthermore, the RM Series’ ability to work with sustainable and recyclable materials demonstrates a strong commitment to environmental responsibility and concerns about market demands in terms of sustainability. This approach aligns with the increasingly high expectations of consumers, who are looking for products and brands committed to caring for the environment. Mespack says it is firmly committed to this vision, collaborating closely with key partners and testing innovation to deliver the best solutions for a greener world, states a company release.
Visitors to the Snack & Bake Tech Show had the opportunity to see live demonstrations of the RM260SC at Mespack’s stand in Hall 1, H01. Its team of experts, including managing director of India, Anthony D’Souza, and director of sales, Barun Kumar, were present to provide insights into the machine’s capabilities and discuss how it can be a better choice for flexible packaging converters.
“We were thrilled to introduce the RM Series in this India fair. The machine represents a significant leap forward in packaging technology, offering unmatched flexibility, efficiency, and sustainability. This is the perfect machine for entering the stand-up, resealable pouch market, and young entrepreneurs venturing into this segment. We received great footfall at our stand for the live demonstration of RM260SC. We are optimistic this machine will revolutionize the pouching and flexible packaging industry,” D’Souza said.
Packaging South Asia — resilient, growing and impactful — daily, monthly — always responsive
The multi-channel B2B in print and digital 17-year-old platform matches the industry’s growth trajectory. The Indian, South Asian, Southeast Asian, and Middle East packaging industries are looking beyond the resilience of the past three years. They are resuming capacity expansion and diversification, with high technology and automation in new plants and projects.
As we present our 2024 publishing plan, India’s real GDP growth for the financial year ending 31 March 2024 will exceed 6%. The packaging industry growth will match the GDP growth in volume terms and surpass it by at least 3% in terms of nominal growth allowing for price inflation in energy, raw materials, consumables, and capital equipment.
The capacity for flexible film manufacturing in India increased by 45% over the past four years. With orders in place, we expect another 20% capacity addition in 2024 and 2025. Capacities in monocartons, corrugation, aseptic liquid packaging, and labels are growing similarly. As the consumption story returns over the next six months, we expect demand to return and exceed the growth trajectory of previous years. The numbers are positive for most of the economies in the region – and as shown by our analytics, our platform increasingly reaches and influences these.
For responsible and sustainable packaging, with its attendant regulations and compliances, there is significant headroom to grow in India and the region. Our coverage includes the entire packaging supply chain – from concept to shelf and to waste collection, sorting, and recycling.
We target brand owners, product managers, raw material suppliers, packaging designers and converters, and recyclers. This is a large and complex canvas – the only thing that can work is your agile thinking and innovation together with our continuous learning and persistence.
The coming year looks to be an up year in this region, and this is the right time to plan your participation and marketing communication – in our rich and highly targeted business platform with human resources on the ground. Share your thoughts and plans to inspire and mobilize our editorial and advertising teams!
