Filling system for powder and cocoa: Packing dust does not have any chance
The reduction of dust emissions is one of the largest task when filling powder and cocoa.
The valve bag just having a small filling opening easily copes with this task. The rest is done by our filling machines:
- Impeller packer for pure wheat flours
- Pneumatic packer for flours and baking mixes with many different corn sizes
The filling system of open-mouth bags and FFS bags requires special sensivity: Only the well balanced combination of low-air filling, a dust-tight filling spout and efficient de-aeration provides optimum filling results for powder and cocoa. This is the main strength of our systems:
Cocoa powder, cocoa kibbles & cocoa cake: Our extensive experience for your success in packaging
Cocoa products have different fat contents and alkali portions. It is easy to fill low-fat cocoa products with low bulk densities because they flow nicely. But for fatty cocoa products with high bulk densities special precautions have to be taken to reach optimum filling results.
We are well prepared to meet this challenge. While our impeller packer presents one of the most realiable valve bag filling system for fatty cocoa powders around the globe, we recommend our gravity packer for lumpy cocoa kibbles.
Pre-fabricated open-mouth bags are filled by our TOPLINE® - and big bags by our big bag filling system GWH. In both cases product-specifically selected dosing units assure best filling results for powder and cocoa.
Starch & derivatives: Starch is our main strength - and your benefit
Starch products, starch flours or starch flakes are made of potatoes, corn, tapioca or wheat. The basic products are as different as are the growing areas, the product processing and packaging as well as the storage conditions.
A good basis for the optimum end-product storage is provided by the selection of the bag type and material. We help you fill your bags properly according to the most recent technical and hygiene standards, e. g. :
- By our pneumatic packer or impeller packer for valve bags.
- By our TOPLINE® for pre-fabricated open-mouth bags.
- By our ADAMS® for FFS bags
You decide whether your bags are filled 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.

Valve bag filling technoloy
A lot of food and animal feed producers choose the valve bag due to its easy handling and its compact bag shape with high advertising impact.
Gravity packer for grains & granules
The product is filled according to the gravity principle either by a curved or by a straight gravity tube - without additional conveying air or mechanical assistance.
Open-mouth bag filling technology
Optimum product protection and improved storage, high advertising impact, flexible filling volumes or simple opening and re-closing of the used bags - all these are convincing features of the open-mouth bag.
Fully automated filling technology
The BEHN + BATES-TOPLINE® 600 and 1200 are used for filling granules & grains into pre-fabricated open-mouth bags.
FFS technology
Food and animal feed products will be packed into plastic bags more frequently in future as each packing company is keen on keeping its packing cost as low as possible. The FFS bag meets this requirement to a special extent.
Big bag filling technology
In the logistics chain big bags are a cost-effective alternative to conventional bags. Of course, they must also allow quick and clean processing - goals that can be easily reached with our big bag filling station GWH.
