Industry & Business

Primoreels A/S has become an established flexible packaging partner for manufacturers in the dairy sector and the water/juice industry. With the constant introduction of new products and battle for shelf space at retail, the company’s solutions help customers stand out with high-quality graphics and long shelf-life performance, that is able to compete with the traditional thicker Alu die cut lids.

Primoreels® flexible packaging solutions have fastly gained a reputation for timely, high-quality, innovative lidding solutions that satisfy our customers.

Primoreels A/S was founded in year 2008, but has its roots from a filling machine company with more than 60 years of experience within the dairy industry.

An Expert Within the UF Feta Cheese

The Primoreels system was primarily invented for UF feta cheese production. The inventor of the system had a hard time understanding that non-sterilized membranes and lids were still positioned on top of the fresh cheese – even the rest of the production lines were sterile. The inline reels solutions allow the lids/membranes to pass through an UV tunnel, which gives the dairy producers the security, they have always dreamt about.

In the Primoreels® system a reel with preformed and printed lids corresponding to one day’s production is mounted in the filling/packing machine. The lids are automatically fed to the lid dispenser passing through an UV-C sterilizing unit. In the packing machine the lids are automatically separated and dispensed on the cups. Because the lids are coming from a roll and not in a stack it is possible to run lid materials with a thickness as low as 23 microns, which naturally has an influence on not only the lid-prices but also minimizes the harm inflicted on the environment.

Environment

Compared to regular die cut PET & Aluminium lids, the Primoreels PET lids offer the best substitute in regards of a cheaper lidding material that at the same time minimize the environmental impact. Reinforcing its commitment to the environment, Primoreels can offer the most popular and commonly used PET lids in 36 microns – but also PET lids as thin as 23 microns, and paper based materials with even lower carbon footprint.

Stand Alone Units

The Primoreels® system is successfully installed on numerous high capacity machines around the world.

Now the Primoreels® system can be adapted to any type and brand of filling machine – Inline machines as well as Round table machines. The units are tailor-made and have their own touch screen panels and controls, making them independent units.
