Fugini and Mespack: A Longstanding Partnership Fueled by Reliability
For nearly 20 years, Fugini has run on Mespack packaging machines. Their new H-440 FEQ now fills ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard and tomato sauce pouches at up to 220 pouches per minute, with a hygienic 316 stainless steel filling system built for preservative-free products.
At Mespack, we take pride in partnering with companies that share our commitment to innovation, sustainability, and continuous improvement. One such inspiring collaboration is our long-standing relationship with Fugini, a leading food manufacturer in Brazil, and a market leader in tomato sauces and vegetables.
A Partnership Forged in Innovation
Fugini has always been a pioneer in the Brazilian food industry. Initially focused on canned tomato sauces, they made a strategic shift to flexible packaging, quickly becoming the top brand in the country. In their continuous pursuit of efficiency and innovation, Fugini recently turned to Mespack once again to support their production goals.
Their challenge? To increase production capacity while maintaining high standards for sustainability, food safety, and innovation. Our solution? The high-performance and flexible Mespack H-440 FEQ, equipped with a hygienic filling system specifically designed for preservative-free products. The filling area is constructed with 316 stainless steel, ensuring maximum robustness and long-term durability, even when handling acidic or aggressive formulations.
The Project: Customized Technology for Customized Sauces
In just six months, we delivered the H-440 FEQ, a machine perfectly adapted to Fugini’s product range, which includes ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard, tomato sauces, and soy sauce. This advanced horizontal form-fill-seal solution offers:
- High-Speed Output: Up to 220 pouches per minute.
- Eight dosing stations with Flow Meter FM8 technology, ensuring accurate filling of various sauces and viscosities.
- Heated Hopper: Ideal for products requiring controlled temperature for perfect dosing.
- Butler Automatic Reel Splicing System: Minimizes downtime and boosts efficiency.
- Prepared for Recyclable Packaging: Supporting Fugini’s next big step towards sustainability.
All of this is seamlessly integrated with Mespack Athena and Hello Mespack, our digital platforms that provide advanced control monitoring, real-time performance tracking, and remote technical support — ensuring a Mespack technician is always just a click away whenever needed.
"We are always seeking innovation and practicality. Our goal is to produce healthy, accessible food for everyone. In this sense, Mespack is the perfect partner to help us package our products in flexible, recyclable pouches using state-of-the-art technology."
"Our sauces are 100% natural, with no preservatives or added salt. Using Mespack’s technology and packaging solutions, we’ve reduced additives and plastic usage, while maintaining product quality."
Fugini has been using Mespack machines for nearly 20 years. According to their team, our reliability, efficiency, and technical support make Mespack a trusted partner in their operations:
"Even with the time zone difference, Mespack is always there for us when we need support. Their equipment allows us to meet the growing demand with confidence and efficiency."
Looking Ahead: Recyclable Future
