  • Overcoming labor shortage and cost pressure with scalable packaging automation.

New Richmond (WI), August 7, 2025. Labor shortages, rising material and energy costs, and the growing demand for sustainable packaging are reshaping the bakery industry. At IBIE 2025 (International Baking Industry Exposition), taking place September 14–17 in Las Vegas, Syntegon will demonstrate how its scalable packaging automation solutions help manufacturers meet these challenges while improving efficiency and product quality. As a trusted lifecycle partner, Syntegon supports customers from consultation and planning to seamless integration, reliable operation, and continuous adaptation – backed by deep industry expertise, a broad portfolio, and a global network of service hubs. Whether bakery manufacturers are just starting their automation journey or expanding to fully integrated high-speed lines, Syntegon offers the flexibility, reliability, and innovation they need to succeed. At booth #2165, visitors can explore a comprehensive range of scalable solutions, including new innovative sealing technology, gentle product handling systems, and cost-efficient entry-level equipment designed to help bakery manufacturers automate at their own pace.

 

 

Baked goods: tight packages and high automation levels

 

A highlight at IBIE will be live demonstrations of Syntegon’s innovative packaging solution for baked goods such as brownies. Significantly reducing manual intervention, this system addresses the pressing issues of labor shortage and the need for constant high quality. At the heart of the solution is Syntegon’s HCM high-speed flow wrapping machine. It is equipped with the new, innovative Amplified Heat Sealing (AHS) technology. Compared to conventional rotary heat-sealing AHS delivers exceptionally tight seals by combining rotational and additional linear sealing movements. AHS ensures consistent sealing quality under varying process speeds, even for sustainable mono-materials. In addition, new digital features such as Syntegon’s ‘Guide-by-Light’ status lighting system, Logbook and 3D Error View enhance the user experience for reduced downtime and maximum productivity. Manufacturers seeking a turnkey solution can scale this line with Syntegon’s portfolio of topload and sideload cartoners, along with RSC, wraparound, tray and hood-style case packers.

 

 

Toaster pastry packaging system ensuring high product quality

 

Syntegon will also present a system optimized for gentle handling of delicate toaster pastries. Using the Stacking FIT linear motor infeed, products are gently stacked moments before flow wrapping to minimize breakage and waste. The reliable Pack 202 mid-speed flow wrapper securely wraps toaster pastry stacks in convenient perforated two-piece packs. For a full automation turnkey solution customers may add the intelligent Kliklok MagTRAC collation module grouping the flow packs into layers or side-by-side to prepare for efficient endload cartoning by the Kliklok BEC. In order to complete the line manufacturers may opt for one of Syntegon’s Elematic case packers.
