PACKING SOLUTIONS ARE A 
NOTCH UP 
INTRO
Globally, and across industries, pouch filling machines are a popular 
choice for viscous condiments packing and viscous ready to eat foods 
like tomato ketchup. Tomato ketchup packing is usually done in two 
ways—in tear away or standee pouches, or in High Density 
Polyethylene (HDPE) bottles. 
In either case, the tomato ketchup packaging needs to be robust and 
leak-proof. Hence the need for superior quality packing machinery. 
Pouches are flexible, lightweight bags that offer many advantages over 
traditional packaging such as metal cans or glass bottle packing.
TYPES OF KETCHUP PACKING
There are two major types of liquid pouch filling machines: 
vertical form fill seal (VFFS) and horizontal form fill seal (HFFS) packing machines. The 
filled and sealed bag is cut away. As is evident in many tomato sauce/ketchup brands, 
the top seal on the first bag becomes the bottom of the next bag, and the process 
repeats. The cut pouch falls to a collection system, typically a belt conveyor that 
brings the pouch to the next packaging step.
Ketchup packing is generally referred to as ‘flexible packaging’ or ‘sachet packing’ as 
opposed to ‘bottle and jar packing’ which is rigid. 
Flexible packaging offers several advantages: it uses less material, needs less energy 
during formation, and produces less greenhouse gases during manufacturing. Being 
lightweight & unbreakable, it is economical to pack, store, and transport.
