Our expertise in bakery products

Cupcakes

Syntegon’s pocket chain makes sure even irregularly-shaped products can be wrapped at high capacities, as the product transport is fully controlled throughout the packaging process.

Hamburger buns

Our solutions are optimized for Modified Atmosphere Packaging to keep the buns fresh, while the flexible overhead conveyor holds them in place.

Brownies

Our systems feature a wide format range for flow wrapping different brownies and soft cakes and placing them into retail cartons.

Bread

Thanks to longer sealing times, our flow wrapping machines are able to create hermetically sealed flow wraps to make your bread taste fresh longer and extend its shelf life.

Croissants

Croissants and other pastry products are particularly sensitive to damage. Our gentle handling technologies protect them during the packaging process, ensuring premium product quality.

Layer cake

The gain of linear motors (XTS)

Due to the high degree of flexibility that is becoming increasingly important in the confectionery industry, Syntegon recognized the potential of XTS technology from Beckhoff early on. The Syntegon team in Beringen has been working with the Beckhoff experts since 2011 and was one of the first XTS customers. No other manufacturer in the packaging industry has implemented as many XTS applications as Syntegon.

Our bakery packaging solutions have got you covered

Freshly baked products tend to lose their consistency quickly. Fast packaging processes are key to preserving the original taste and consistency. Syntegon’s reliable solutions, including buffering systems, reduce product backups and enhance throughput to make sure your baked products are processed quickly. Fast troubleshooting and availability of spare parts get your machines back up and running in a short time.

Product protection

Bakery products are difficult to handle because of their variable size and shape. Syntegon’s robotic handling solutions and spacing sensors make it possible to transport products to the flow wrapper particularly gently and in continuous motion. Protecting systems, such as trays, reduce breakage before packaging. Vision systems perform a quality check so your customers can enjoy high quality food.

Baked goods require high standards in product protection and hygiene. Our sealing technologies have got you covered: thanks to longer sealing times or hot sealing technologies, our equipment creates reliable seals for different product and packaging material requirements. Gas flushing and alcohol sprays reduce the oxygen in the packaging to extend your products’ the shelf-life.

Future-proof technologies

Consumer demands are highly dynamic in the bakery industry, requiring a large range of products, formats and pack styles. Our future-proof machines feature a modular design and fast changeovers. They enable you to switch between different products, configurations and packaging materials. Tool-less and easy cleaning processes avoid cross-contamination, so you do not need to worry about allergens

Machines for the bakery industry are subject to frequent temperature changes, high humidity, and procedures that stress the equipment, such as gas flushing or alcohol spraying. Our machines are robust and feature high quality electronics to withstand the demanding environment. Their stainless steel design, as well as the use of spark-free components, makes Syntegon machines suitable for highly flammable environments.

Consumers value products with a premium touch: an attractive packaging with a “home-made” look, labels or alternative packaging materials. Our customers rely on our systems that process elaborate packaging materials and feature labellings modules, allowing to create customized labels. We are happy to find the right components for your individual solution.
