Valuetainable
Upcoming EU regulations signify changes but also bring opportunities. Change now and save on essentials such as energy, CO₂ emissions, raw materials, food – and costs. A sustainable and valuable choice for brands and everyone who packs.
Achieve sustainability objectives conveniently and easily
Sustainability
With our ultrasonic sealing technology, you can enhance the sustainability of your packaging process automatically while simultaneously reducing costs by:
What do elephants have to do with cat food?
A customer packs moist, chunky cat food in a stand-up pouch. This repeatedly resulted in defective packaging that had to be disposed of. By switching to our reliable sealing technology, the number of leaking packs was able to be reduced from 0.05 % to 0.001 %.
That might not sound like much, but it’s actually quite substantial: every day, more than 4.4 tons of cat food are saved from disposal – equivalent to the weight of a full-grown elephant.
Application
Ultrasonic sealing is suitable for a wide range of applications.
Valuable for different applications

Industry
Many possible uses
Valuable for different industries
The ultrasonic sealing technology is used to package products in many industries – whenever there is a need for packaging that is durable, leak-proof, and visually flawless.
The ultrasonic generator ensures reproducible results for all sealing applications. With specially developed functions and external sensors, it is possible to reliably detect faulty conditions and eliminate defective sealed packaging.

Ultrasonic sealing offers solutions to meet the demands of the future
Legal regulation for packaging
Whether you are looking to limit overpackaging, increase the product-specific recyclate usage rate, or replace multilayer packaging with new monomaterials, ultrasonic sealing offers a future-proof solution to meet your packaging needs.
Overpacking
EU-wide standards for over-packing will define maximum allowed empty space in packaging and ban certain forms of unnecessary packaging. The Ultrasonic technology allows to minimize the sealing area and as a result reduces unnecessary packaging space.
Recyclate
In the future an increased use of recycled plastics in packaging material is mandatory to meet the legal regulations and to decrease the use of virgin materials.
Monomaterials
In order to meet future packaging recycling rates monomeric materials will become more and more a standard for packaging material. As monomeric material is quite sensible towards heat Ultrasonic offers here the right technology for a tight and reliable sealing process.

Technology
How ultrasonic sealing works
In ultrasonic welding, melt is created in the packaging material itself by introducing mechanical vibrations into the packaging material using a sonotrode. These vibrations generate friction between the molecular chains and the interfaces of the packaging material layers, resulting in localized melting. The use of cold ultrasonic tools enables rapid cooling, allowing for immediate loading of the produced seam. This minimizes the thermal load on the materials and the packaged goods.
