Bagging systems can be installed in a variety of production environments and used for packaging a wide range of products, from printed materials , automotive parts and medical supplies to fresh foods, frozen foods, and many more applications. Bagging systems are used to mechanically insert and seal products inside a flexible material bag or pouch. By integrating an auto bagging system into your productions packaging operations, your company can achieve increased production and consistency, reduced workstations, reduced labor costs, increased accuracy, and product protection benefits.
Sharp Packaging Systems has been designing and manufacturing flexible packaging systems and bags since 1984. Headquartered in Sussex, WI, the company has expanded to include additional locations in Tempe, AZ and East Troy, WI.
Our MAX and SX bagging machines are ideal for packaging almost any product, quickly and accurately. From small, single machine operations to global companies with manufacturing plants across the world, any industry benefits from our flexible packaging solutions with reduced costs and improved productivity.
