Thermoforming packaging for skin applications
In the food industry, presenting products with a visually appealing, wrinkle-free appearance is crucial, especially for fresh and premium items. Traditional packaging methods often fail to perfectly wrap products with high protrusions or sharp edges, diminishing both aesthetic quality and shelf life.

Produces high-quality skin packages with minimal wrinkles
The GEA PowerPak for skin applications is a thermoforming packaging system engineered by GEA to deliver high-quality skin packaging. Its innovative design wraps food products as a second skin, even if they have high protrusions up to 50 mm. The technology ensures minimal risk of wrinkles and can handle multiple packaging formats, including Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) and vacuum packs, on a single line. This versatility supports various industries such as meat, seafood, and premium sliced foods. The machine’s modular design allows for customization with different feeding systems, heating, forming, sealing, and cutting options, making it adaptable to specific producer requirements. Additional add-on systems like GEA TiroLabel PLUS for precise labeling and GEA EasyCheck for content inspection further optimize packaging quality and efficiency.
