TNA Solutions, a global leader in food processing and packaging, will showcase its integrated systems capabilities at Foodtech Packtech 2025, taking place 2–4 September in Auckland.
On stand G16, TNA will join forces with its partner Wipotec to present advanced seasoning and packaging solutions that span the full production line.
With a strong partner network in NZ that includes Wipotec, Baader, Horn Probat Group, American Extrusion International, and most recently HMPS Propac Industrial, TNA says it is uniquely positioned to offer solutions across diverse sectors such as snack, dairy, pet food, confectionery, cereal, seafood, and non-food liquids.
This collaborative model allows local producers to access a wider range of technologies while benefiting from TNA’s expertise in packaging, seasoning, and distribution.
According to the company, these technologies are designed to help food producers in NZ optimise production, reduce costs, simplify operations, and retain talent.
“Through our recent partnership with HMPS Propac, we now offer complete packaging line capabilities – from bagging to case packing and palletising,” said Ramon Barr, branch manager at TNA Solutions.
“This positioning allows us to support a wide range of sectors in NZ, while our customers benefit from the collaborative approach to build and support entire lines – backed by global innovation and comprehensive aftermarket service.”
Meeting high-speed packaging requirements
On display at the show will be the tna robag 3e, which the company says is the world’s fastest vertical form, fill and seal (VFFS) system, designed to meet the high-performance needs of modern food producers.
Built for high speed, the tna robag 3e is capable of producing up to 250 bags per minute at over 95 per cent efficiency (performance varies depending on bag size, film type, and product).
Supporting a range of formats – including pillow packs, block bottom with zip-close, Doy-style and bulk bags – the robag 3e is engineered for ultimate flexibility. Its simplified mechanical design helps cut down on routine maintenance and enhances energy efficiency, supporting operational cost savings over the long term.
For brands managing multiple SKUs or shorter runs, the system’s fast, tool-less changeovers and modular components enable quick adjustments and minimal downtime, helping teams stay agile and keep production flowing.
The integrated smart diagnostics feature empowers operators with real-time system insights, allowing proactive performance monitoring and faster issue resolution.
Enabling on-trend flavour innovation
TNA will also be showcasing the tna intelli-flav OMS 5 – a next-gen on-machine seasoning system that applies both powder and liquid flavourings in a single drum with, according to the company, “exceptional precision and consistency”.
TNA says it is designed to deliver perfect texture, appearance and taste across fried, baked and puffed snacks, and is a powerful tool for brands looking to expand their flavour portfolios, while maintaining high production standards and reducing waste.
Engineered for performance and ease of use, the OMS 5 features a stainless-steel drum with heated oil integration, allowing for seamless hot and cold applications.
The company says that its ergonomically lightweight design, paired with a rotating, dual-sided touchscreen, ensures intuitive operation and accessibility, helping to reduce operator fatigue and improve line uptime.
Also, tool-less changeovers make switching between flavours quick and efficient, minimising downtime and enabling greater production flexibility.
