Gulfood Manufacturing in Dubai is the world’s premier event for food and beverage manufacturers, supply chain innovators, and technology leaders. From November 4 to 6, 2025, German manufacturers LoeschPack and Hastamat will be showcasing their innovative packaging systems in Sheikh Saeed Hall 1, booth S1-D70.

At their joint booth, the packaging machine manufacturers from Germany will unveil their innovative and compact system solutions to trade visitors. LoeschPack will be exhibiting its LTM-DUO combination line for packaging chocolate bars for the first time in the United Arab Emirates. Hastamat will present the RM-270 vertical flow wrapping machine, featuring a hygienic design for flat bags with a zip closure. “Whether you need a single machine or a comprehensive solution for packaging food or non-food products, the packaging systems from LoeschPack and Hastamat are flexible, efficient, and space-saving – ideal for meeting the unique requirements of our international customers,” says Olaf Piepenbrock, Managing Partner of Hastamat, LoeschPack, and the parent company Piepenbrock.

Combination line instead of stand-alone machines

The LTM-DUO combination line from LoeschPack integrates two-stage fold wrapping and chocolate bar cartoning within a single compact platform. It stands out due to its high degree of automation, low staffing requirements, and small footprint. Its compact design takes up significantly less space than comparable layouts. “The combination line is an economical and space-efficient alternative to a configuration with two stand-alone machines. The line features a hot melt unit and central control system and can be operated by just one person,“ explains Dr. Ferdinand Schwarzfischer, Chief Technology Officer (CTO) at LoeschPack. In the first step, the LTM-DUO fold wrapping machine packs more than 200 chocolate bars per minute in a tightly sealed primary wrap. The outer wrap can be designed as a paper envelope from a stack or reel, or as a cardboard envelope. The CMW cartoning module then fills around 30 display cartons per minute. An integrated buffer reduces waste.
