ILPRA SpA is beside those productions that want to take their process lines to a higher level, producing and supplying machinery for modified atmosphere packaging, essential for the preservation of meat and poultry.
Ilpra knows that timing plays a crucial role in productivity growth and that from small to large production, quality must not be compromised. According to productivity, versatility and safety, they offer a wide range of machines for meat packaging.
Productivity and sustainability with PROGAS: modified atmosphere packaging technology
PROGAS is ILPRA’s patented technology for modified atmosphere packaging, increasing the work cycle and considerably reducing gas consumption. In this way, productivity is combined with sustainability, another essential element in production lines.
On an in-line machine, up to one more cycle per minute can be achieved, allowing a significant increase in machine output and gas savings.
Meat is a delicate product. To prevent bacterial proliferation, it is processed in special clean rooms and must maintain its organoleptic characteristics unchanged. Meat must be handled manually as little as possible, making an automated line the preferred option due to the result of the packaging process.
To guarantee these safety criteria, ILPRA is the single point of contact for project, designing, producing and providing entire packaging lines equipped with conveyor belts, automatic tray feeders, traysealing machines and end-of-line systems.
Small, medium and high production requirements with the Foodpack line of traysealers
Every production must have quality packaging to grow and expand its business. ILPRA’s mission is to provide projects that enable customers to invest in a packaging line adapted to their needs, always with the aim of enhancing their potential. This is why ILPRA’s Foodpack line of traysealers has been developed to meet small, medium and high production requirements. Two major innovations within their models will be presented in the upcoming editions of Anuga, Iffa and Ipack Ima 2022.
Ilpra Hyper Tray Sealer – Gas Flush Packaging-

The Foodpack Hyper for large scale production
The first is Foodpack Hyper, an in-line machine designed for large-scale production. The aim of this project is to increase productivity with the Constant placement System, a technology that allows a continuous inflow of trays. Thanks to the FP Hyper software, the conveyor belt automatically separates the trays and transports them in the sealing area, communicating with the jaws during the gripping phase. With a constant torque unwinding system, the sealing is completely mechanical.
The Foodpack 400 dedicated to small and medium production
The second innovation is addressed to small and medium productions, to reach high packaging standards with a limited investment. The Foodpack 400 Extra Roto is a manual traysealer with a rotary table, designed for skin packaging even at high levels of protrusion (up to 70mm). The FP 400 Extra Roto effectively optimizes times: while the packaging in the sealing area is processed by the mould and the chamber, the operator can prepare the next cycle. In this way, the speed is considerably increased, without penalizing packaging quality.
