When looking for the optimum packaging solution for your company, numerous factors need to be considered. When investing in a vertical form fill seal machine, the focus is not only on technical specifications, but also on economic aspects. Here you'll find answers to crucial questions.

Vertical packaging, also known as Vertical Form Fill Seal (VFFS), is a process for producing sealed bags from a flat packaging film roll. A vertical tube is formed and filled with the product from above using gravity. The bag is then formed and sealed. Vertical packaging is suitable for a wide variety of products: From various food products to to other consumer goods.
Syntegon's VFFS packaging machines are suitable for a wide variety of products: snacks, confectionery, baked goods, frozen food, powder products, coffee, tea, cheese and various non-food products. Every product has different characteristics. The machine and the packaging material must fulfil the specific requirements in order to guarantee freshness and product safety.
Syntegon offers different types of VFFS packaging machines for various products:
Continuous motion machines: Work without interruption of the film transport between packaging cycles for higher production speeds. Ideal for high volumes and more efficiency.
Intermittent motion machines: Alternate between film transport and sealing. Particularly suitable for large products with high target weight when precision is more critical than output per minute.
Which VFFS machine is right for you depends on various factors – primarily your product. It also depends on what bag types you want to package your product in, their size, and how high the output and performance of your machine needs to be.
Which VFFS machine is right for you depends on your product. Syntegon's vertical form fill seal machines can package powders, granulates and solid products in various sizes. Depending on the product, specific configurations are required. The right dosing system for your product is crucial: very often multi-head weighers, alternatively auger fillers for powder or volumetric cup fillers for granulates. Our experts will help you select the optimal configuration for your product.
Most Syntegon VFFS machines can produce pillow bags. With additional tools, gusseted bags, block bottom bags, corner sealed block bottom bags and Doy style bags can also be produced. Check the machine's minimum and maximum web width and bag length to ensure it is suitable for your packaging design. The Syntegon SVX series offers maximum flexibility in bag design with the same machine – from simple formats to resealable DoyZip variants.
Some models are more hygienic and maintenance-friendly than others. Look for features such as tool-less conversion, stainless steel construction, open frame design, and the ability to wet clean the machines. Syntegon's VFFS machines are characterized by these features, reducing downtime in production and minimising expensive downtime.
When selecting the optimal vertical form fill seal machine, you should consider these key factors:
Product characteristics and packaging material:

Production volume and flexibility:
Continuous machines offer higher speeds, while intermittent machines are optimized for more specific requirements.
Ease of use and maintenance:
Simple operation and quick format changes maximize your uptime. Look for intuitive user interfaces and good accessibility to all components.
