SIG Food Options

Expand your product portfolio on standard SIG filling machines

With Food Option filling machines from SIG you can go beyond standard dairy and other beverages by filling pasty, highly viscous food products, and even products with some particulate content in aseptic carton packs. Our SIG Food Options filling technology offers the opportunity to expand product lines and boost brands while keeping a lid on production costs. In the dairy sector, for example, food manufacturers can tap into entirely new business segments. Because it is not just milk and milk-mix beverages that can be filled using the aseptic Food Option filling machines – more viscous puddings, dessert sauces, and custard are possible as well.

New segments - low investment

Standard SIG filling machines featuring the Food Option solution include minor technical adjustments that allow producers to fill a wide range of additional food products:​

  • Chunky product ingredients up to 15% ​
  • Particulates up to 6mm​
  • Fibers 1x15mm​
  • Viscosity up to 3,500mPas

  • Long shelf-life without refrigeration or preservatives
