FAQ

Questions from Food

Which closure type suits food?

Hotmelt closes the folding carton firmly, the tuck-in flap makes it resealable. Both are possible – with the KC-V10 also combined in one machine.

Can I carton soft products such as pouches?

Yes. Pouches, sachets and flow packs are usually placed manually at the filling station. Send us samples and we will check the process.

Which machine suits small batches?

For small batches and little space, the KC-V6 is a good entry point, with more filling stations the KC-V8.
