Filling and packing

Conditions and challenges

Blister and food packing machines have tendency to be affected by unplanned stoppages when exposed to humid conditions. High humidity affect speed of packaging and wrapping machinery, and moisture absorption is to be avoided to prevent slowing down the process.

Antibiotics, effervescent powders and hygroscopic products need to be packed in a dry environment to prevent premature activation or deterioration of ingredients and products.
