We supply standalone machines and complete packaging lines to food, beverage, pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, chemical, and cosmetic manufacturers across South Africa and neighbouring countries, and we modify standard equipment or build custom systems where a product needs it.
Shrink wrap, flow wrap, vertical form-fill-seal (VFFS) and horizontal form-fill-seal (HFFS) machines come first below, followed by the rest of the SA Packaging Machinery range. Each machine type has its own page covering what it packs, how it is configured and what a quotation includes. The machine catalogue lets you filter every machine we supply by product form, pack format and industry.
L-bar and side sealers, sleeve sealers and shrink tunnels for multipacks, glass jars, hardware and retail-ready packs.
Horizontal flow wrappers for bars, biscuits, frozen snacks, small parts and anything needing a fin or lap seal at speed.
Powders, granules, and liquids formed, filled, and sealed from reel film, with auger, weighing, or volumetric dosing or pump to suit the product.
Stand-up and zipper pouch lines for spices, granules and liquid formats where shelf presentation matters.
If you know your product but not the machine, start from what you pack. Choose the product form, the pack format or the product itself, and SA Packaging Machinery shows you the packaging machines that handle it.
