Foods such as snacks, confectionary, fast foods, fruit and produce, beverages, meat and fish are packed directly into carton boxes. During box folding and gluing belts are in contact with the food pack and a potential source for contamination.
As part of Viking Conveyor’s commitment to offer innovative solutions to the New Zealand food industry, we have added the new RAPPLON® Folder Gluer Belting range with Food Grade covers.
These belts offer a higher level of hygiene meeting both FDA and EC standards for contact with foodstuffs giving extra peace of mind to food carton manufacturers.
Available in Classic and QuickSplice designs, RAPPLON® Folder Gluer Belts ensure precise transport and folding of carton blanks at very high speeds. With the new Food Grade covers they are ideal for carton makers in food, liquid and pharmaceutical packaging industries.
