What Prepac Engineering Industries (pvt) Ltd does

Prepac Engineering Industries (Pvt) Ltd is a Lahore-headquartered manufacturer of automatic Vertical Form Fill Seal (VFFS) packaging machinery and flexible packaging films, founded in 1985 as the first joint French-Pakistani collaboration in the flexible packaging sector. The company's product portfolio spans more than sixteen machine variants — including the IS series liquid machines (IS-1 through IS-6DH with output up to 9,000 packs/hour), the Press n' Pour bottle-shaped pouch system, and the Solid series granular/powder machines (Solid-AW, Solid-DV, Solid-MH with multihead weighing, Solid-AU augur, Solid-BK bulk 5-50 kg) — complemented by add-on components such as multihead weighers (integrated with Yamato, Ashida, Bilwinco, and Multipond systems), screw elevators, conveyors, date coders, and bag-closing sewing machines.

Underlying technology includes multi-layer co-extrusion (3-layer and 5-layer PE films with EVOH high-barrier properties, first 5-layer extruder in Pakistan in 1999), solventless lamination (introduced in Pakistan in 1998), aseptic flexible pouch packaging (first in Pakistan in 1994), and up to 7-color rotogravure printing on laminated films. Prepac operates under licensing from Prepac France, which granted manufacturing rights for IS-1 and P-1 liquid machines in 1996 and solid packaging machines in 2005; Serac France serves as an exclusive agent for certain dairy, food, and beverage consultancy services.

The business model is B2B capital equipment and consumables: one-time revenue from VFFS machine sales (spanning solid, granular, viscous, and liquid products across snacks and confectionery, dairy, edible oil, beverages, frozen foods, pet food, pharmaceuticals, household chemicals, and agricultural chemicals) recurring from in-house spare parts, flexible packaging films, and after-sales service, with additional income from turn-key consultancy and project execution for dairy, food, and beverage plants. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales through three offices — Lahore (manufacturing), France (sales and services, registered 2018), and Canada (sales and services) — with a network of named integrations (Yamato, Ashida, Bilwinco, Multipond) and exclusive agency agreements. The company reports 2,650+ machines installed across 21 countries, holds CE and ISO 9001 quality certifications, and employs a team of 100+ professionals spanning engineering, dairy consulting, agronomy, and business consultancy.
