Cartoning machines for contract packers

Small batches, changing customers, different folding cartons every week: contract packers need a cartoning machine that changes over quickly and takes up little space. That is exactly what Kappler machines are built for.

FAQ

Questions from Contract Packaging

Which machine suits contract packers?

Usually the KC-V8. If your orders sometimes require tuck-in flap and sometimes hotmelt, the KC-V10 is a good choice: it can be equipped with both closures and runs tuck closure, hotmelt closure or a combination.

Why vertical cartoning as a contract packer?

Vertical cartoning machines are compact, flexible with many formats and ideal for small to medium batches – exactly right for changing orders.

Is a used machine worthwhile?

For a quick start, often yes. Used Kappler machines are rarely available – send us a search request.
