Horizontal Flow Wrapping Systems
HFFS Flow Wrapper Packaging Machines
Horizontal flow wrappers, often referred to as pillow pack machines, create a sealed package from a continuous roll of film while maintaining consistent product presentation and production efficiency.
Our HFFS flow wrapping systems are designed for applications ranging from entry-level production through to high-speed automated packaging lines. Solutions are available for standard and high-care environments, with machine configurations tailored to product requirements, throughput targets and integration needs.

Where Horizontal Flow Wrappers Are Typically Used
Horizontal Form Fill Seal (HFFS) systems are widely used where products require consistent presentation, high throughput and efficient film utilisation. The technology is suitable for both individual product wrapping and multi-pack applications across a broad range of industries.
Common applications include bakery products, confectionery, protein products, dairy items, frozen foods, medical devices and non-food consumer goods. Product characteristics, pack format requirements and production volumes will often determine whether a flow wrapping system is the most suitable packaging solution.
Where presentation, seal integrity and production efficiency are key requirements, HFFS technology often provides significant advantages over manual or semi-automatic packaging processes.
Factors That Influence Flow Wrapper Selection
Selecting a flow wrapping machine involves more than determining the required pack speed.
Product dimensions, film type, infeed configuration, changeover frequency and operating environment all influence machine specification. High-care food production environments may require washdown construction and specific hygiene features, while high-volume manufacturing operations often focus on throughput, automation and integration with upstream processes.
In many applications, the flow wrapper forms part of a wider production line incorporating automatic feeding, product distribution, quality inspection, cartoning or end-of-line automation. Understanding how the machine will operate within the wider process is often as important as the machine specification itself.
Flow Wrappers as Part of an Integrated Packaging Line
While standalone flow wrappers remain suitable for many applications, higher throughput environments increasingly require fully integrated packaging systems.
Automatic feeding, product alignment, robotic loading, secondary packaging and palletising can all be incorporated into a single coordinated production line. Integrating these processes improves product flow, reduces manual handling and helps maintain consistent production speeds throughout the packaging operation.
For manufacturers planning future growth, packaging line integration can often provide greater long-term operational benefits than introducing individual machines as standalone projects.
