Liquid & Aseptic Packaging Supplies

Rapak is a leading liquid packaging manufacturer, specialising in the supply of flexible packaging (bag-in-box) and related packaging equipment (filling systems). Rapak is part of DS Smith Plastics, a leading packaging manufacturer, supplying plastic packaging of all types including flexible packaging systems such as returnable plastic containers.

Many different types of industries are turning to bag-in-box packaging as a more efficient and productive way of packaging food and drink, chemicals, even paint! Bag-in-box is a well established method of retail packaging in the wine market but it is increasingly being used for other forms of beverage packaging both for direct purchase by consumers and for food and drink processors and the catering trade.

Bag-in-box has therefore become one of the most innovative packaging solutions on the market today. New dispensing technologies allow shelf-life to be prolonged as sterile packaging remains completely aseptic until the point of consumption.

Packaging liquid in bags is also possible in high volumes as the largest flexible packaging bags have a capacity of 1400 litres (330 gallons) suitable for use in IBC's.

What's more, no company will give you a wider choice of filling systems or better service support than Rapak. The right filling system could revolutionise the productivity of your whole operation whether you are working with non-aseptic packaging or aseptic packaging, sterile packaging or using aseptic treatment methods. Rapak provide automatic and semi-automatic filling machines and the keynote of the Rapak approach is flexibility as filling systems can be made to fit into virtually any footprint in the plant and designed to fit in with existing manufacturing processes.
