Overview 

The offered filling line for pouch bags was designed by a Swiss company and also delivered by them in 2018. The main manufacturer is Linapack. The line was only used for seasonal production only (2 months a year), therefore the working hours are very low. As the sales volumes are not further increasing, the seller decided to sell the line and stop the production. The line is still assembled and can be shown.

It is possible to handle different formats of pouch bags and to do hot filling up to 85°C. The current owner used it for Cocktails but it can also be used for various other non carbonated drinks.
