Ishida and NPS Combined Forces Drives Growth for African Manufacturers

Ishida’s acquisition of National Packaging Systems (NPS) in early 2024 is being showcased for the first time at Propak Africa 2025, bringing significant benefits to the African food and non-food industry.

Ishida will also present two innovations for the first time on the African continent:

Its award-winning QX-500 tray sealer and its newly launched Sentinel 5.0 remote production monitoring system.

Other highlights include examples from Ishida’s top selling multihead weigher and X-ray inspection system ranges, Ishida’s advanced snack food packing system, and four models from NPS’s proven range of filling and packaging solutions.

Based in Kwa-Zulu Natal, NPS has been for over 40 years a trusted name for designing and manufacturing high-performance filling and packaging equipment.

Melika Seiderer, Ishida’s GM for Africa: “Through this acquisition, African food and non-food businesses have now even better access to both NPS’s product range as well as Ishida’s world-class weighing, packing and quality control solutions”.

“The breadth and variety of our combined portfolio allows us to help businesses of every size to automate their packing lines, helping our customers to achieve increased throughput and efficiencies, enhanced quality, better reliability, excellent ROI as well as stronger service and support” continues Melika.
