We supply standalone machines and complete packaging lines to food, beverage, pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, chemical, and cosmetic manufacturers across South Africa and neighbouring countries, and we modify standard equipment or build custom systems where a product needs it.
Technicians with a combined 45 years in the industry handle installation, training and service, in person and over phone and video. Every machine carries a one-year warranty and can be trialled on your own product first.
Our machines are CE marked, with the conformity documentation supplied with each machine and CE certificates available on request. They are built in SUS304 stainless steel as standard, and in SUS316 where the product contains salt, because salt corrodes the standard grade over time. Operating manuals for several machines can be requested from their machine pages, so your team can see how a machine is run and cared for before it arrives.
Shrink wrap, flow wrap, vertical form-fill-seal (VFFS) and horizontal form-fill-seal (HFFS) machines come first, then the rest of the SA Packaging Machinery range. Each machine type has its own page, and the machine catalogue filters every machine by product form, pack format and industry.
If you know your product but not the machine, start from what you pack. Choose the product form, the pack format or the product itself, and SA Packaging Machinery shows you the packaging machines that handle it.
Choose the pack you sell in to see the SA Packaging Machinery machine that makes it. We supply standalone machines, integrated systems and complete lines.

Manufacturers buy from SA Packaging Machinery because they can see a packaging machine running before they commit. Sales, the showroom, the spares shelf and the technicians share one site in Riversands, Johannesburg, and the same technicians install and service machines across Southern Africa, with phone and video support. See the case studies below and our machine videos; lead times, installation and warranty are covered on our FAQ page.
Model codes shown are machines we have built or configured for previous projects. Your machine is specified and built to suit your product, output and pack format — not supplied off the shelf.
