Vertical Form Fill and Seal (VFFS)
Layfield’s Vertiflex™ packaging solution is a trusted choice for food processors and manufacturers seeking efficiency and versatility. This advanced process uses roll stock—a continuous film roll—to create bags or pouches on demand. Unlike traditional methods that rely on pre-made bags, Vertiflex™ integrates forming, filling, and sealing into one seamless vertical operation, delivering speed and precision for a wide range of products.
The Vertical Form Fill & Seal (VFFS) system transforms film into a tube or pouch, fills it vertically with product, and securely seals it—all in one continuous motion. This dynamic approach is widely adopted for packaging snacks, grains, powders, liquids, and more.
