Galdi food packaging machines installed in 2022

In 2022, we have supplied new packaging machines and complete lines to many parts of the world.

Each project has been a unique experience, with Galdi's Project Managers, System Integrators and the experts at FILL good always on hand to provide support and share their expertise with customers.

In 2021, the Greek market discovered the first Gable Top cartons for water thanks to Theoni. This year, it’s been Kosovo's turn!

With the support of a Galdi RG50 packaging machine, local manufacturer Rugove has introduced boxed water in the country.

The project we carried out with Metropolitana Milanese was another highlight of 2022.

This year we broke the barrier of 50 packaging machines for liquid egg sold across the world.

The new projects we carried out in 2022 included:

• Gruppo Eurovo: transition from roll-fed to Gable Top carton packaging
• Michael Food: launch of plant-based egg in Gable Top cartons
• Cascina Italia: transition from roll-fed to Gable Top carton packaging
• Master Eggs: first Galdi filling machine in Brazil
• Vermeulen Eieren: first experience with Gable Top packaging. Galdi provided advice on packaging and processes, cooperating with SANOVO to develop the latter.

In 2022, a new packaging line for fresh and ESL milk became fully operational at C.F. Burger Creamery.

Galdi supplied the machinery for the whole line:

• RG270 packaging machine for fresh milk and ESL products, fully equipped version
• Artema Pack's Wrap Around Machine
• Conveyor system, including elevator (height: 3.7m), overhead conveyors (length: 25m) and de-elevator
• Palletising isle (Cartesian robot, pallet destacker and pallet wrapper)

Galdi's engineers and specialists provided comprehensive support to develop the project, starting from the layout of the production floor within an area with already existing machinery.

In 2022, a packaging line for almond milk manufactured by Food IQ went into operation.

As a co-packer, the customer was looking for a solution that would ensure maximum flexibility in terms of available package formats and paper types.

Since they were new to Gable Top packaging, Galdi provided comprehensive and all-round advice.

In addition, FILL good's specialists guided the customer through the packaging development process.

For Tirlàn (formerly Glanbia Ireland), we installed a packaging line for dairy products filled in 1.75l packages.

The new line was installed to replace an older, outdated one with the goal of increasing production, improving quality and reducing operating costs.

Galdi's full support in detail:

• Supplied a 2-litre RG270 packaging machine and end-of-line Artema Wrap Around shrink-wrapping machine
• Layout design on existing plant
• Dedicated Project Manager
• Safety Orientation plan for the commissioning stage
• Logistics management and handling plan to install the machines in the factory

To cater for the growing demand for fresh milk in Gable Top cartons in the Irish market, Lee Strand added to their Galdi RG270 a new RG50 filling machine.

In 2022, we were involved in an interesting project by Little Mixers. The start-up chose Gable Top cartons to package their premium fruit purées for cocktails, aimed at bars across the UK.

For this very special project, for which we supplied a complete line, the support by FILL good proved crucial once again, in particular for food safety and shelf life validation.

Getting to know each other was key! The project with Tara Dairy came to life after the customer had paid a visit to our Italian headquarters.

Along with the solutions we were proposing, our approach - based on listening to customer needs and sharing our know-how with them - has proved especially successful.

Along with the construction of a new production facility, Mr. Milk also incorporated a Gable Top packaging system in their plant. Galdi supplied an RG21 packaging machine (Formats: 1l, 500ml, and 250ml)

This choice is linked to the growing demand for products in carton packages in the country. Indeed, several (milk and plant-based drink) manufacturers are seizing this opportunity.
