4 most packaging Materials for large coffee filling machines

When it comes to packaging materials for large coffee filling machines, we actually have multiple choices. The following are some commonly used packaging materials in our daily production:

Roll film:

This is a large roll form of packaging film. It is used in conjunction with a molding filling sealing machine to shape the film and form a sealing bag or small bag.

The roll film can be made of various materials, including laminated film or compostable material. The thickness of the roll film is usually 2.5 to 10 mils and has various widths of the material.

Some roll films have high barrier properties, compatibility with specific machines, and customized printing options.

Customized printed roll film allows brands to display their logo, design, and product information on packaging.

Roll film can be used to make different types of packaging, such as pillow shaped bags, small bags, small bags, flat bags, or strip packaging. It has options for transparent, black, random printing, or custom printing.

Roll films can be configured according to product requirements (including barrier performance, shelf life, and food safety factors) to achieve optimal performance.

Some coil films are designed specifically for specific applications, such as high-capacity molding filling and sealing, vertical molding filling sealing (VFFS), or horizontal molding filling sealing (HFFS) applications.

 

Prefabricated bags：

This is a popular packaging choice used in large coffee filling machines. The ready to use bags that have already been formed and sealed do not require additional forming or sealing steps during the filling process. They provide a safe and hygienic packaging solution for coffee, making it easy to carry and store.

Prefabricated bags come in various forms, such as upright bags, flat bags, or bags with special functions such as zippers or nozzles.

These bags can be made of different materials, including laminated films or compostable materials, depending on the required performance and sustainability goals.

The bottom of upright bags has diagonal braces, allowing them to stand upright on retail shelves, while flat bags are usually displayed on pallets or hooks.

Prefabricated bags offer custom printing options, allowing brands to display their logo, design, and product information on the packaging.

Prefabricated bags have characteristics such as high barrier, moisture resistance, and light avoidance, which can maintain the freshness and quality of coffee.

Some prefabricated bag designs have options for re sealing, such as zippers or easily tipping nozzles, to increase convenience and environmental performance for reuse.

The use of prefabricated bags can bring many benefits, such as almost completely emptying the product, significantly reducing waste compared to hard containers, and utilizing flexible packaging without the need for internal bagging equipment.

 

Rigid container:

Some coffee filling machines can fill coffee into rigid containers such as cans. These containers are generally made of materials such as glass or plastic.

 

Zipper bag:

For whole coffee beans, zipper bags are a popular choice. These bags have resealable zippers, allowing consumers to easily open and close the packaging while keeping the coffee fresh.

The zippered small bag has a wide range of uses, including storing coffee. They usually have a zipper closure, making it easy to open and close the bag.

Zipper bags come in different sizes and materials and offer customization options, including different colors, prints, and sizes. Some manufacturers offer zipper bags made from environmentally friendly materials or with sustainable features. You can see this type of bag everywhere on the supermarket shelves.

 

Coffee capsules:

For example, K-cups or Nespresso capsules are another very unique but gradually popular new packaging choice. These individual capsules are filled with coffee and sealed for personal use. They can be made from different materials, including plastic, aluminum, or compostable materials.

Aluminum capsules are often praised for their recyclability, while some brands have launched compostable fiber capsules as environmentally friendly alternatives. However, compostable capsules are not as effective in preserving coffee as plastic capsules due to their ease of decomposition. Therefore, how to balance preservation and environmental protection has become a challenge for coffee capsule packaging materials in recent years.

The biggest advantage of coffee capsules is their convenience and consistency, allowing users to quickly and easily brew a cup of coffee. A foolproof one click operation of the coffee machine allows you to get a cup of exquisite coffee that is no less than that of a coffee shop, catering to the coffee needs and preferences of many household customers.

 

It is worth noting that the specific packaging materials used in large coffee filling machines may vary depending on the machine model, manufacturer, and required packaging format. It is recommended that everyone consult the machine manufacturer or supplier before deciding on the formal production plan to understand the specific packaging materials recommended for your machine. Our technical team can provide similar services and provide you with a one-stop complete packaging solution.
