Rovema machines we follow — VFFS technology

Vertical Form Fill Seal (VFFS) Machines

The VFFS machine is Rovema’s core technology and a well-known standard in the packaging world.

How VFFS machines work

  • packaging film is formed into a tube
  • the longitudinal seam is sealed
  • product is filled vertically into the bag
  • top and bottom seals close the package
  • finished bags are discharged for further handling

This continuous process allows for high-speed, reliable packaging with excellent consistency.

Why Rovema VFFS machines are relevant for Barsso

Rovema VFFS machines stand out because they are:

  • highly multifunctional, suitable for many product types
  • compatible with food, pet food and bulk products
  • capable of handling powders, granulates, snacks and frozen products
  • flexible in bag formats (pillow bags, block bottom bags, etc.)
  • designed for industrial reliability and long service life

Because of this flexibility, Rovema VFFS machines are often reused or repurposed, making them very suitable for resale and reintegration into different production lines.

Typical applications of Rovema VFFS machines

Rovema VFFS systems are commonly used for packaging:

  • frozen vegetables and potato products
  • snacks and extruded products
  • powders and granulates
  • pet food and animal nutrition
  • bulk food ingredients

Their ability to adapt to different products and packaging requirements makes them attractive in dynamic production environments.

  • processing lines for vegetables and potatoes
  • snack production and extrusion lines
  • freezing and cooling systems
  • weighing, dosing and feeding equipment

This integration potential increases the practical and commercial value of Rovema machines within complete or partial production lines.
