SEALPAC’s F-series thermoformer debuts at IFFA 2025, driving a new era in pharmaceutical packaging news with smart, energy-efficient, future-ready technology.
A New Era for Thermoforming Technology
World premiere: A New Era for Thermoforming Technology, Sparked by
the SEALPAC F-
series.
With the launch of the new F-series at this year’s IFFA, SEALPAC is presenting a
completely redesigned thermoformer that sets an entirely new precedent in this
segment of packaging. The pioneering machine series is the result of many years of solid
R&D, making it a new starting point for the future. In short: the F-series takes
thermoforming seriously.
The SEALPAC F-series is based on decades of expertise, investigation, and finetuning by
the German packaging experts. Designed from the ground up, this thermoformer series
stands for maximum flexibility, outstanding processing, and intuitive operation.
Representing the entire series, a SEALPAC F6 thermoformer will be shown to the expert
audience at IFFA 2025 for the very first time.
Thermoformers that think for
themselves
The new F-series is based on an intelligent concept that goes far beyond conventional
market standards. The machines were developed as self-thinking thermoformers that
continuously analyse their own processes. They automatically regulate energy consumption,
detect maintenance needs, and optimize their performance algorithmically via the iMode
system.
Functions such as automatic film alignment and automatic chain tension correction ensure
maximum process reliability and minimize the need for manual intervention.
Revolutionary design, easy tool change
The forming, sealing, and cutting stations of the F-series thermoformer are equipped with
smart features that not only ensure reliable processes, but also enable extremely fast
format changes. The servo-controlled film transport and lifting systems guarantee high-
quality packaging results. Innovative tool change systems minimize downtime and
significantly simplify the transition to new formats or materials. In terms of hygiene and
accessibility for maintenance and service, the design of the F-series also meets the high
standards that users recognize from SEALPAC’s traysealers. Overall, the new F-series
thermoformers are characterized by their low-maintenance design and exceptional
durability.
Energy efficient and ease to use
When designing the F-series, energy efficiency was a top priority. Now, intelligent heat
recovery and optimized heating and cooling processes significantly reduce energy
consumption, without compromising on quality or output. Combined with precise process
monitoring, each thermoformer enables predictive maintenance and minimizes unplanned
downtime. Ease of use has also been redefined: a modern touch-screen interface,
combined with Industry 4.0-capable control software, enables accurate and simple
machine operation. Furthermore, the F-series thermoformers can be easily integrated into
digitalized production environments via standardized interfaces. This allows for maximum
control and traceability.
Flexible selection of packaging solutions
The F-series thermoformer is designed to handle modern, recyclable, mono-
materials without issues. This also includes contemporary opening aids, such as the
innovative
EasyPeelPoint system. With this SEALPAC solution, the top film is pressed into a round
cavity and thus released from the sealing edge. As counterforce can be dosed accurately,
the peel function is activated to perfection. The system convinces due to its self-
explanatory function with natural feel: the peel corner can easily be gripped, after which
the top film is removed from the pack with minimum effort. Moreover, the system is less
subjective to cold sealing, which regularly occurs in the cutting area.
Thermoforming taken seriously
With its combination of smart technology, flexible use, energy efficiency, and intuitive
operation, the new F-series is a true game changer for anyone who wants to combine
sophisticated packaging with high standards. “Our customers not only expect an
outstanding packaging experience, but also maximum efficiency and reliability. With this
completely redesigned thermoformer, we deliberately avoided evolutionary compromises
and rethought every aspect. The result is a machine that impresses across the board in
terms of performance, intelligence, and futureproofing,” emphasizes Marcel Veenstra,
Marketing & Communications Manager at SEALPAC.
