For years the Italian company has been a major player in the capsule filling market for such products as coffee and soluble beverages. Now, Spreafico Automation is expanding its portfolio with a series of cartoning machines for the boxing of capsules, in order to offer its customers turnkey packaging solutions that can cover all the stages after the processing.

Cartoning machines tailor-made for the market

In order to maintain a leadership position, meeting market demands quickly and efficiently is paramount. Spreafico Automation knows it well: after expanding its portfolio with a series of special machines for capsule preparation, capable of such functions as the insertion of various types of filters in capsules of varying sizes, it is now coming full circle by launching a solution aimed at the secondary packaging. Built and assembled on a specific request from Spreafico’s engineers and technicians, the new units for the boxing process meet the most important needs of the customers: first of all, great reliability and durability. Spreafico’s cartoning machines are based on a mainly mechanical construction and can be fully integrated with the other machines produced by the Italian company, offering performances which are in line with market demands. The new cartoning machines also offer high accessibility to the different components, easy control and, last but not least, minimal maintenance requirements.

The perfect partner

The new cartoning machines are the perfect addition to Spreafico’s capsule filling portfolio, which is still the company’s core business. Spreafico boasts an unrivaled experience in this industry, thanks to its more than forty years old tradition in the mechanical field, which has allowed the company to become the partner of choice for several important roasters, in Italy and the world. Spreafico machines can handle all the main compatible capsule types on the market, from “Nespresso” to “Dolce Gusto”, while guaranteeing a residual percentage of oxygen inside the capsule of less than 1%, to provide for a better quality of the product and a longer shelf life. This means that the client can count on high levels of flexibility, which allows them to meet every need in terms of production speed and products. The engineering skills that the company can leverage allow for a better support of the client, guiding the customer in the selection of the layout of the line and, if needed, acting as the main contractor for projects that involve several partners.
