Filling system for granules: Easy handling, high output, excellent weights
Granules & grains - e.g. crystal sugar, rice, corn and seeds - are easy to handle. They have excellent flowing characteristics and do not raise dust. High packing capacities with our filling systems for granules are possible, filled weights are excellent.
For decades our gravity packer has proven its worth as a filling system for granules and grains into valve bags. Equipped with a special open-mouth bag filling spout it is even suitable for filling pre-fabricated open-mouth bags.
Open-mouth bag filling to perfection is reached by our fully automatic systems:
- TOPLINE® for pre-fabricated open-mouth bags
- FFS system for FFS bags made from an endless gusseted film

Profitability, good product protection and long storage times are fundamental demands on quality filling systems - demands that are optimally fulfilled by the tight and compact FFS bag. We offer different FFS systems for the environment-friendly and energy-saving filling of grains & granules. All of them are state-of-the-art. Important factors for the right selection are your product and your requested output:
- BEHN + BATES FFS 600 for lumpy products
(up to 600 bags/h) - BEHN + BATES FFS 1000 for fine grains
(up to 1,000 bags/h) - BEHN + BATES FFS 2000 for bulk materials
(up to 2,000 bags/h)
You decide whether your filling system for granules operates manually or automatically, at low or high outputs per hour. Our modular system provides the right solutions for each application - from filling up to palletizing.
