Familiar with the ins and outs of your industry
Powder processing has many bottlenecks and makes high demands on your machine
There must be the option to use the machine efficiently for packaging different types of powders and powder mixtures. Processors all face the following bottlenecks.
- A dusty environment causes:
– Contamination of film and associated sealing problems
– A lot of dust/contamination in the packaging line which is not easy to clean because of the product - Every powder is different. This creates a lot of variation in products and the necessary tooling is often not available.
- There should not be too much air in the pack, air expulsion is required
- Speed in small packaging is high, and the packers must also be able to handle large packaging. A large model of machine is required.
- Accumulated dust due to pouring the product into the packaging
- Static load
- Choice between volumetric or graphimetric filling, depending on homogeneity of the product
With VH Powder you are responding to changing market demands
Being able to respond quickly to the specific demands of users is important. When the market demand is constantly changing, the ability to be flexible and able to adapt quickly is highly desirable. With VH Powder, you are always well prepared for this: a smooth changeover between different types of packaging, resealable or not, etc. ensures a great deal of flexibility and continuity.

Champion Feed convinced of VH Powder
We spent months doing our research into different brands, and this is how we came upon VH Vertical Packing. Freek Jacobs took lots of time with us, explained various aspects in great detail, and advised us on the machine that was ideally suited for packaging our powders. Mathieu did not hesitate to share his experience and confirm Freek’s advice. We were also introduced to Richard and Ruud, very professional guys. The pleasurable contact that we had, together with the trust created by the professional installation of our machine, were the deciding factors in choosing VH.
