Fres-co System USA Inc.

When food products need to be shelf stable even under the toughest environmental conditions, retort flexible packaging may be the answer. As a key component of its flexible packaging system approach, Fres-co supplies automatic retort machines that efficiently transform rollstock into formed pouches to be filled with precisely weighed contents and sealed.

See the Food & Beverage Processing Equipment page on this company's website.

As part of its flexible packaging system approach, Fres-co offers automatic vertical form/fill/seal (VFFS) machines that efficiently transform rollstock into formed bags or pouches that are filled with precisely weighed contents and sealed. Machines come in multiple bag configurations (Corner Seal®, square or cathedral top) and can utilize a variety of filling options and closure formats. Applications include packaging for coffee, other dry products or liquid foods and beverages.

Fres-co’s flexible packaging materials are the result of meticulous research, development and refinement, using expertly engineered rollstock, lidstock, pouches, bags, valves, taps, fitments and any number of other features, to deliver flexible packages that uphold even the most exacting barrier and dispensing requirements.

Fres-co’s offers dispensing closures including Pierce Tap 1 and Pierce Tap 2 dispensing taps for retail and Fres Twist™ dispensing fitments, designed for foodservice. Dispensing taps are designed to be easy to open, eliminating the need for can openers. User-friendly taps and fitments help to preserve liquid food and beverage freshness, ensure product safety and extend shelf life by maintaining a secure barrier until packages are opened. Patented Fres Flow™ technology eliminates the oxygen ingress inherent with yesterday’s BIB fitments as well as the need for fitment irradiation prior to aseptic applications, offering features such as no leaking and dripping, consistent product delivery, and minimal waste and clean-up after use.

Fres-co supplies large format industrial bags and flexible intermediate bulk containers (FIBCs). The Fres-co Industrial Bag is a 25kg/50lb Bag designed to help make expensive-to-manufacture specialty products, including chemicals, agricultural chemicals, resins and food or feed ingredients, more affordable to package, store and transport with a lower overall cost of ownership. Bags feature patented Hi-Flo® one-way degassing valve to create safe, stable pallets of airtight packages for both domestic transport and export. Fres-Co also supplies FIBCs and bulk bags offering safe and economical shipping, handling and storage of a wide range of dry, flowable products. End users can benefit from greater safety working loads (SWLs) and shorter hanging, filling and discharging times. With FIBCs, more product in fewer bags also means that inventory can be compactly stored and shipped.
