For Filler Specialties, joining the APPMA is an endorsement that it is succeeding in its aim. And that aim is to support your business' profits by providing reliable, predictable, and accurate filling/capping.

Its custom built, innovative equipment and systems are used by producers of juice, dairy, pharmaceutical/nutraceutical, water, food, personal care/household products, automotive/petroleum and chemical products.

The family business still depends on old school values of quality workmanship and materials. These values now underpin most sophisticated and innovative equipment.

It has six distinct machine series to choose from, so there is no doubt that it will create the optimal filler and capper combination for every need.

The company designs and manufactures stainless steel rotary bottle fillers and cappers in multiple configurations that include standalone, monobloc, and tri-bloc/close coupled systems.

Fillers are available as gravity or pressure gravity.

Its filler/cappers are suited for handling products that range from non-carbonated free flowing to more viscous liquids.

Its machines fill glass or plastic containers from 60 ml to 10 litre in size, at speeds from 10 bottles per minute to over 700 bpm.

And it offers bottle capping systems for screw caps, snap/screw caps, press-on caps, sport caps, foil heat seal caps, and specialty closures.

All of this is why the APPMA stands behind it. The APPMA’s objective is to promote, integrate and foster participation and development of the packaging and processing machinery side of the industry.
