 PROFILE

Its operations includes Sandiacre Packaging Machinery (vertical form fill and seal bagging machines), Langen (cartoning and case packing machines), and Molins Food Machinery (tea bag machines). Typical products include resealable bags for snack foods and bags with plastic valves for dispensing pharmaceuticals.
