DELTA VACMAP

Designed as a cost effective alternative to expensive skin and thermoforming packaging, the Delta VacMap™ combines vacuum and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) in one machine. The vacuum system allows the machine to extract trapped pockets of oxygen found inside the product itself. The result is a packaging line that produces attractive traditional looking packs with the same shelf life characteristics of thermoforming, at a greatly reduced cost. And unlike with thermoforming, whole package printing is as easy as on a traditional horizontal flow wrapper.

Cost savings are realized across the board, from lower film costs, increased throughput and reduced labor expenses as the Delta VacMap™ machine requires very little operator involvement.

If the food application needs a hygienic packing environment, the Delta VacMap™’s fully automatic product feeding and handling system will meet the most stringent requirements. The easy-clean design will keep cleanup downtime to a minimum whilst maintaining the highest standards of hygiene.

The Delta VacMap™ line also boasts a great deal of flexibility, as it easily handles multiple sizes and can be used a normal gas flushing wrapper by turning off the vacuum system, thus increasing wrapping speed as a result.

This solution allows the reduction of wrapping material use compared to a thermoforming application and, moreover, is capable of handling recyclable and sustainable packaging materials.
