The new packing system is due for installation later this year and is being supplied on a turnkey basis as part of Border’s plant expansion and upgrade programme.

An important feature of the new packing system is the flexibility which gives Border the option of retrofitting a tubular form fill seal system into the bag filling station, which will allow it to increase future packing outputs up to 1,200bags/hour.
