Core offering

beck packautomaten manufactures and sells automated industrial packaging machinery, including Serienpacker horizontal flow wrappers, Multiplex form-fill-seal machines, Sammelpacker sleeve wrapping machines, and Schrumpftunnel shrink tunnels, plus a paper-based beck-paperbag line for sustainable e-commerce packaging. The company supplies both standard machines and customized packaging lines, and supports them with technical service, training, maintenance, overhauls, and spare parts.

Product overview

beck packautomaten is a German family-owned packaging machinery manufacturer offering a comprehensive portfolio of automated packaging machines. Their product portfolio consists of film packaging machines (Serienpacker flow wrappers), form-fill-seal machines (Multiplex/Fitpacker), sleeve wrapping machines (Sammelpacker), and shrink tunnels (Schrumpftunnel) for heat-shrinking. The company has expanded into sustainable packaging with their paper packaging line (beck-paperbag) for e-commerce applications. The machines work together as an integrated packaging line: products are wrapped using Serienpacker or form-fill-seal machines, bundled with sleeve wrappers, and finished through shrink tunnels. The recent innovation in paper packaging enables fully automatic sustainable packaging using recyclable paper materials.
