It is commonly distributed by wholesalers and takeaways for on-the-go food products. Clamshell containers help to keep food fresher for longer and their transparent qualities make the food that it holds more appealing.

How is a Volumetric Filler Used to Deposit Food Into Shell Containers?

A volumetric filler deposits food into packaging swiftly without the need for operators to hand fill these containers separately. The result is a faster method of packaging and distribution of fresh food products. A volumetric filler allows for the delicate and accurate distribution of food into plastic clamshell containers.

An example of a volumetric filler that expertly helps operators to pack and fill shell containers are Multi-Fill MPFSC-120 volumetric filler. The machine can fill up to a speed up to 120 containers per minute and is compatible with a wide variety of container conveying systems - making it perfect for any workstation working with a large distribution of clamshell containers.

Example of Food That is Deposited: Pico De Gallo

Pico De Gallo is a popular cuisine what is pico de gallo exactly? pico de gallo in English means rooster's beak but it is a delicious type of salsa commonly used in Mexican recipes.

Delving into cGMP: Its Crucial Role in Food Packaging and Safety

By Michael Naylor • January 12, 2024

Food packaging plays a vital role in ensuring the safety and quality of the food we consume. To maintain high standards and prevent foodborne illnesses, the food packaging industry follows a set of regulations known as Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP). In this article, we will delve into cGMP and explore its impact on preventing foodborne illness. We will also take an inside look at how cGMP is implemented on a food factory line, the role of food filling equipment in ensuring compliance, and discuss the future of cGMP in food packaging for strengthening food safety.
