The company will be featuring V-Shapes PRIME, its entry-level print/fill and seal converting machine in partnership with AstroNova’s TrojanLabel and Steuckart Verpackungstechnik. During the show, V-Shapes will print and convert single-dose sachets filled with generic hand sanitiser as well as featuring various brands and artwork.

This will enable attendees to experience how easy and efficient it is to operate this vertically integrated machine with a single operator, and they will have the ability to produce an accurate brand image on the sachets. The version on display will feature an inline TrojanLabel T2-C high-volume full-colour digital label press for inline printing on the top of the sachets. Sachets can be printed using SIHL ARTYSIO substrates that are certified recyclable for an eco-friendly product. In addition to the excellent printability in aqueous inkjet, they also have outstanding sealing properties to provide the best protection with barrier properties tailored to the filled product.

Vilius Kryznauskas, EU sales director for V-Shapes, said, “This revolutionary filling/converting machine was made possible through a variety of important partnerships, including Memjet, Siemens and SIHL, as well as the talented V-Shapes engineering team. It was no small challenge to develop synchronized feeds and printing for the upper and lower layers of our patented single-dose sachets, and we think the visitors to FachPack will be amazed when they learn what we and our partners have accomplished.”
