ULMA Packaging will participate in Seafood Expo Global 2026 (April 21–23, Fira Barcelona Gran Vía, Hall 3 – Stand 3EE601) with a technology offering aimed at optimizing packaging processes in the seafood industry. The company will showcase solutions designed to increase productivity, improve packaging quality and reduce manual operations in demanding industrial environments.
Automated Flow Pack line for fish cuts
One of the main highlights is a complete line based on the Flow Pack FM 300 wrapper, combined with a vacuum chamber and automatic loading systems.
This solution enables the automation of fish cut packaging—traditionally carried out manually—while ensuring high sealing integrity, vacuum stability and consistent sealing quality.
Key benefits include:
- High format flexibility
- Increased productivity
- Reduced handling costs and vacuum losses
- Improved process control and safety
- High sealing and vacuum quality
The integration of Flow Pack and vacuum technology provides an efficient and robust solution for producers seeking automation without compromising flexibility.
High-performance tray sealing with skin technology
The TSA 875 tray sealer integrates Fast Skin™ technology, capable of reaching up to 13 cycles per minute in skin applications, delivering performance comparable to modified atmosphere packaging (MAP).
This solution ensures premium product presentation and excellent sealing quality, suitable for both cardboard and plastic trays.
It also features the R-Skin™ system, enabling the use of lighter trays and reducing material consumption by up to 50%. Additionally, the CUT ONTRAY system reduces top film waste by up to 30%, supporting more sustainable packaging processes.
Versatile thermoformer for multiple applications
The TFS 200 MSV thermoformer is designed as an all-in-one solution capable of producing packages in modified atmosphere (MAP), skin or vacuum.
It supports a wide range of materials, including cardboard, laminated films and monomaterials. Its compact design and ease of use make it a highly versatile solution for different production environments.
Vertical packaging for frozen seafood
The VTC 840 continuous vertical packaging machine is designed for frozen seafood products. It incorporates Tight-Bag™ technology, which removes air without perforating the bag, reducing volume by up to 20% without affecting product quantity.
This improves logistics efficiency, increases load capacity and reduces operational costs, while minimizing environmental impact.
