Showcases  advancements in eco-friendly bagging

PAC Machinery will debut several cutting-edge automatic bagging systems at the ProMat Show, including two new models from its “Flexible Sustainability” series. These innovative baggers support eco-conscious materials such as paper and poly made of recycled content. Among the highlights is the Rollbag® R985 Tabletop Automatic Bagger, the first-ever compact, tabletop auto bagger designed for sustainable bagging with both paper and poly materials. ProMat, the premier supply chain and logistics show of the year, will be held at McCormick Place in Chicago, March 17-20, 2025. Catch the PAC Machinery exhibit at booth

“The R985 is our third innovation in the ‘Flexible Sustainability’ solutions lineup, designed to accommodate dual material options,” said Greg Berguig, PAC Machinery President. “These new solutions not only offer versatility but also future-proof investments against changing plastic regulations. With this latest group of innovative solutions, companies can seamlessly transition to paper packaging as regulations and consumer preferences evolve, ensuring they don’t waste time or money on new investments,” Berguig said.
