AUSPACK 2022 will see Nupac showcasing Syntegon as part of their stand after the purchase and rebrand of Bosch Packaging Technology to Syntegon in January of 2020.

After three years without exhibitions, AUSPACK presents the first opportunity for Nupac to present Syntegon in a public forum to the industry. Peter Pontikis, managing director at Nupac Industries stated that “presenting the Syntegon brand for the first time at an Australian exhibition is important moment, and one we are proud to be a part of”.

Representing Syntegon, and previously Bosch Packaging Technology for over 35 years in Australia and New Zealand, Nupac is a trusted provider of high-quality packaging and processing solutions, working with companies such as Mondelez, Mars, McCains, Arnott’s, Bega, and Nestle, as well as smaller companies looking to take the next step towards high quality, high speed packaging solutions.

With their first presence at an Australian exhibition since the rebrand, Syntegon will be exhibiting their focus on sustainable, future proof solutions, while also reinforcing to the industry that although the company has a new name, it still provides the same market leading, innovative, expert packaging solutions.

Standing for synergy, technology, and future focus, Syntegon have placed an emphasis on sustainability, with their mission statement highlighting the company’s goal, ‘processing and packaging technology for a better life’.

“Now, more than ever before, we are working on intelligent and sustainable technologies and embracing the collaboration with our business partners in the true spirit of partnership,” said Dr. Stefan König, chairman of the Syntegon Executive Board.

Building on their 160 years of experience providing flexible and reliable technologies to produce and pack confectionery, dry food, frozen food, and dairy products, Syntegon have continued to grow the brand.

In 2021 alone they saw order income rising 13.1 per cent while total sales also saw an increase of 9.9 per cent, showing strong gains.

“We have successfully strengthened our global presence and will continue

Syntegon provides expert packaging solutions backed by more than a century in the industry space.

to be an important partner for food and pharmaceutical manufacturers worldwide,” says Dr Walter Bickel, chief financial officer at Syntegon.

In 2021, Syntegon also strengthened its efforts towards environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG), committing to the UN Global Compact and successfully completing its first sustainability assessment by the global rating agency EcoVadis. On conjunction with this, Syntegon have set a goal to reduce emissions for 2025 to reduce CO2 emissions by 25 per cent, compared to 2019. This goes hand in hand with its focus on providing manufacturers with solutions to achieve sustainability goals, which includes evolving its packaging machines. Syntegon also caters to the growing demand for automation and flexibility by bringing two innovative robotic solutions to the market: the integrated Sigpack TTMD top load cartoner and the scalable, modular Robotic Pick-and-Place platform RPP.

Both complement Syntegon’s system competence for the food industry, which ranges from process technology to primary, secondary, and tertiary packaging.

Moreover, Syntegon expanded its inline filling portfolio for preformed containers with the new LFS filling machine for clean and ultra-clean hygiene levels of liquid and viscous products.

“We are setting the course for a successful future,” said Dr Grosse.

“Our expanded service and machine portfolio will help us to build and maintain strong partnerships with our customers. We will support them in leveraging the full potential of future trends in the food and pharmaceutical industries.”

Since the purchase and rename of Bosch packaging Technologies, Syntegon has continued to provide high quality solutions in Australia and NZ, with Nupac additionally contributing, selling and commissioning machinery across the Australian and New Zealand markets.

With a positive outlook in the future, especially locally, Nupac realises the growth and potential in the manufacturing industry. “With a focus on localisation within Australia and New Zealand, manufacturing is expected to grow and develop. We are looking forward to being part of the development in this country, realising a strong and profitable manufacturing industry.” Pontikis commented.

As trusted providers, and partners of Syntegon, Nupac will also be presenting other market leading solutions including European brands SN Maschinenbau, AZO and Russell Finex.

On display at AUSPACK will be some of these solutions including a Cobot Palletizing system and high speed VFFS bagging machine.

The team at Nupac will also be on the stand, open to discuss new and innovative solutions, sustainable options as well how manufacturers can look at getting the best outcomes out of their upcoming projects.

Pontikis said the Nupac was excited for AUSPACK. “After three years of absence we are excited for AUSPACK to be back. Speaking face to face with customers and key industry players is something we have missed and the Nupac Australian,” said Pontikis. F
