Advanced packaging solutions provider, HMPS, says it will unveil two new innovations at this year’s APPEX: a mobile palletising solution and a 'state-of-the-art' rotary tub filler.

The company’s mobile palletising solution is designed to bring flexibility and efficiency to various industries, eliminating the need for a huge, dedicated space being needed for palletisation. Meanwhile, the rotary tub filler represents the latest in precision filling technology, offering unmatched speed and accuracy for a wide range of products.

In addition to these new products, HMPS will also be showcasing one of its signature vertical form fill seal (VFFS) machines from the Propac team. The company says this system exemplifies its commitment to providing cutting-edge, reliable, and efficient packaging solutions.

Visitors will also have the opportunity to get a first-hand look at one of the company’s latest designs in the market, the pre-made bagger. Described as a compact but powerful machine, the company says it is a cost-effective solution to automate the opening, filling and sealing of various premade bag styles.
