Overview
What Salt Products Are You Packing?
From fine table salt and iodized salt to coarse sea salt and rock salt, different salt products require suitable measuring, feeding and sealing configurations. FRONTECH helps you select the right packaging solution based on salt particle size, filling weight, bag type, production capacity and packaging requirements.
Packaging Salt with Consistency and Efficiency
Choose Your Salt Package Type
Choose from premade pouches, roll-film bags, sachets and stick packs according to your salt product, package design and sales channel.
Stand-up & zipper pouches
Premade stand-up and zipper pouches provide an attractive retail presentation and convenient resealing for compatible salt products. Suitable pouch packing machines can be configured for different pouch sizes and filling weights.
Pillow & gusset bags
Vertical form fill seal (VFFS) machines form, fill and seal bags directly from roll film. They provide an efficient solution for packaging table salt, sea salt and other suitable granular salt products. Pillow bags and compatible gusset bags can be selected according to the machine configuration and required package dimensions.
Salt sachets & stick packs
Sachets and stick packs are suitable for single-serving salt portions used in restaurants, hotels, food service, takeaway meals and condiment sets. Multi-lane packaging systems can produce multiple portions simultaneously, depending on the selected machine and required output.

Salt Packaging Process
A complete salt packaging line can integrate product feeding, measuring, bag forming, filling, sealing and final quality inspection according to the salt type, package format and production requirements.
Gentle Feeding
Salt are transferred by a Z-type bucket elevator with gentle handling to help reduce salt breakage during conveying.
Accurate Weighing
A multihead weigher or linear weigher provides consistent portion control for different salt pack sizes while maintaining high production speed.
Pouch Picking
The pouch picking mechanism automatically picks premade pouches from the pouch magazine and transfers them to the next station. The gripper design is optimized to reliably pick single pouches and avoid double-sheet picking.
Discharge
Finished bags will be automatically discharged by the conveyor to the next steps, the discharge conveyor speed adjustable.
Metal detection
An optional metal detector can be integrated after packaging for additional product quality control.
Check weight
A checkweigher verifies the final package weight and can reject packs outside the preset tolerance.

Which dosing system is suitable for salt?
A volumetric cup filler can be suitable for free-flowing granular salt when volumetric dosing meets the application requirements. A linear weigher or another suitable weighing system may be selected according to the salt type, target weight and required accuracy. The final configuration should be confirmed using your product specifications.
Can the machine package different types of salt?
Depending on the machine and dosing configuration, suitable systems can handle different salt products, including table salt, sea salt and other granular salt types. Particle size, flow characteristics and target filling weight should be evaluated before selecting the machine.
Can salt be packaged into small sachets or stick packs?
Yes. Suitable sachet and stick pack machines can package salt into individual portions. Multi-lane models can produce several packs simultaneously, with the configuration selected according to package size and required production capacity.
Can the machine package salt into different bag formats?
