Graco’s sanitary container-unloading systems enable efficient transfer of viscous and high-viscosity materials from 5 or 7-gallon pails, 55-gallondrums and 300-gallon bins to process equipment, with up to 99% evacuation rate and without diluting or heating the product. Graco's systems include features such as inflatable seals that conform to the container’s shape, and pump rams or follower plates that wipe the container sides clean, reducing waste and contamination risk. They also reduce manual labour and safety risks by eliminating the need for scooping or dumping containers, and offer quick-disassembly design for cleaning and sanitization in hygiene-sensitive industries.

The Graco InvisiPac™ Hot Melt Delivery System applies tank-free, melt-on-demand technology to improve the efficiency and reliability of end-of-line packaging operations. By melting adhesive only when required, it helps reduce adhesive use by at least 30% and energy use while minimizing downtime caused by char and nozzle blockage. Designed for case and carton sealing, the system maintains consistent adhesive temperature and viscosity through a First-In-First-Out (FIFO) process. Its enclosed, automatic feed reduces operator exposure to heat and fumes, enhancing workplace safety. With quick start-up (less than 10 minutes), reduced maintenance needs, and integrated performance monitoring, InvisiPac supports manufacturers in creating safer, cleaner, and more efficient packaging environments.
