Wet food, fresh food (BARF) and treats
Pet owners expect healthy, fresh food in the right portion for their animal. For you as a producer, that means many formats: from small portions for cats to packs of 2 to 5 kg for breeders.
Cans and trays are expensive and heavy to transport. Chub packaging with a clip is cheaper and takes up less space.
What SysmaTec supplies for pet food
From fresh chubs to sterilised wet food, on one type of machine.
- Poly-clip System – clip-pak® for wet food with automatic sealing/clipping machines (TSCA 120/160), also with a tear-off aid for easy opening. Bag clippers for dry treats.
- Promar – alginate casings for treats.
- Viskase – plastic casings for sterilised food.
- Buhmann Pac Solutions – cases, trays and end-of-line automation.
