Expanding markets are driving new innovation

Increasing advancement in packaging technology for variety of end-use application increases the expectations that the demand will grow further in the next ten years. Manual tasks are quickly being replaced by automatic packaging machines in many industries. Most of the demand for packaging machinery is generated from the food & beverages industry due to significant growth in the consumption of the packaged food.

New Formats Create The Need For New Solutions.

New packaging formats in the e-commerce and food & beverages industry are gaining popularity which has created the need for development of product-specific packaging machinery. Packaging machinery manufacturers are innovating in terms of increasing the efficiency of existing products and the development of customized products according to the requirement of customers.

Global demand for packaging machinery is growing and light speed. ORICS Industries is leading the way in terms of offering highly sophisticated and automated packaging machinery.

These packaging machines are widely used in different end-use industries, prominently in the food & beverages industry, for products that are shipped in cups, tubs, trays, jars, bowls, etc. Form fill and seal machines are increasingly gaining traction in the emerging market due to the integration of three processes in a single system.

Food producers often operate within narrow margins and under high quality standards. When it comes to maximizing profitability and providing consumers with an even better product, automation can be a competitive edge. ORICS industries has been leading the way in the field of automated packaging systems for the food industry since 1990.

Automation systems are now considered essential in virtually all sectors of the food industry and are solving some basic long-standing challenges:

Quality Control

Quality is the major concern for both food alpha pharma producers and consumers. Packaging automation enables suppliers to notice and isolate defects, ensuring faulty products do not enter the marketplace and underlying manufacturing faults are corrected.

Improved Safety

Automation can provide a more granular view of every step of food packaging. Producers can adapt more quickly to changes in safety standards because a change in one process will not introduce unexpected consequences in other areas.

End to End Accountability

Traceability is a growing concern in the food packaging industry. By streamlining traceability, food producers can cut down on regulatory compliance costs and continuously improve key processes.

Expanding Delivery Territory

Modified Atmosphere Packaging, M.A.P., using automatic systems like those ORICS provides enables suppliers to market food products at greater distances from the packaging origin.

Extending Shelf Life

Modified Atmosphere enables fresh and minimally processed packaged food products to maintain visual, textural and nutritional appeal. The controlled MAP environment enables food packaging to provide an extended shelf life without requiring the addition of chemical preservatives or stabilizers.

Protecting the Brand

Food producers rely upon their brand reputation to maintain a good relationship with the end consumer. A single product recall or disease outbreak can be enough to shutter a business – and it can throw customers’ lives into chaos. In the end, automation means brand protection.

Orics Industries caters to a wide range of industries producing an even wider range of products,  candy and condiments, and fresh and frozen foods, to industrial goods and pharmaceuticals. All benefit from automation of packaging lines, whether it is semi automated or fully automated packaging machinery.

Some of the industries that benefit most are listed below:

• Yogurt

Some automated packaging machinery can be used for different types of food or beverages, some are more specialized.

The Pharmaceutical Industry

A huge global industry generating trillions of dollars every year, the pharmaceutical industry produces drugs, medicines and various medications in every form possible. And there are automated packaging solutions for every type.

The Nutraceutical Industry

Related to both the food and pharmaceutical industries, the nutraceutical industry focuses on health and nutrition, and includes a vast range of products from dietary supplements, herbal products and isolated nutrients, to engineered designer foods. Automated packaging machinery is used for cups, trays, tubs etc..

The Consumer Products Industry

Consumer products are vast and varied, and include everything that caters for our needs, whether for health and hygiene, food and drink, cleaning, personal care, clothing, or beauty products. Vacuum packaging systems for dry dog food and cat kibbles.

A partnership among Orics, lidstock provider Berry Plastics, and forming web supplier Klockner Pentaplast brings global advantages.

Virtually every business is looking for ways to utilize automation to improve effectiveness and cut costs. The food packaging and pharmaceutical packaging industries are among those finding solutions in custom designed machinery to meet their specific needs.

Along with government mandated regulations for safety, the fiscal need for efficiency and cost-saving are driving increased demand for labor-saving automation to address specific market trends.

Consumer demand for convenience drives most markets but the main concerns in food processing remain the same; maximizing yield, reducing waste, enhancing reliability and ensuring hygiene and safety.

The rising demand for ready-to-cook meals and prepared cuts of meat are driving developments in modified atmosphere packaging and skin pack formats with extended shelf-life.

Quality control is another important factor driving the automation boom and industries are relying more on robotic QC mechanisms to ensure that their product is as good as it can be when it reaches the market.

Workplace safety is of course a major driver in the shift to automated systems. Injuries in any production line are more than just an inconvenient byproduct of manufacturing, they serve to drive insurance premiums up as well.

ORICS Industries has been designing and manufacturing custom solutions for packaging since 1990 and is the leader in modified atmosphere packaging systems worldwide. With a focus on solving specific the challenges faced by individual industries, ORICS provides technological answers to maximizing yield, reducing waste, extending shelf life, and quality control, while delivering hassle free systems that are reliable and forward thinking so they last for years, even decades.
