Bringing patented on-demand production of unique single-dose sachets that can be opened with a single gesture using one hand to important fast growing market
V-Shapes will be participating in Gulfood Manufacturing in Dubai, scheduled for 7-9 November at the Dubai World Trade Centre. In addition, V-Shapes LatAm S.A. will be presenting its solutions to the Latin American community during Andina Pack, scheduled for 9-12 November at the International Exhibition Center Corferias in Bogotá, Colombia. These two trade fairs are important venues for educating the global community on the business and sustainability benefits of V-Shapes’ unique hygienic and sustainable approach to single-dose packaging.
V-Shapes manufacturing machines are compact, professional-grade systems that come in a variety of configurations to meet the needs of a wide range of packaging converters and co-packers. Systems include PRIME, ALPHA and AlphaFlex, as well as the VS dflex nearline digital printing solution. When inline or nearly printing is included, these unique machines bring vertical integration of high volume production of patented single-dose sachets on site, speeding time to market and eliminating the need to outsource printing.

“Dubai is a key business center in the Middle East with a young and fast-growing population that is open to adopting new technologies and processes,” said Christian Burattini, CEO of V-Shapes. “We are excited to be bringing this new approach to single-dose packaging to this vibrant audience for the first time.”
V-Shapes will be located in Stand 128, Hall 1, at the show, with experts on hand to explain how the V-Shapes sachets are manufactured, what makes them unique, and how these recyclable single-dose sachets contribute to a more sustainable planet while providing consumers with a safe, easy way to dispense a wide variety of liquid and semi-solid products. Branded sachets containing a wide variety of food products will be available to visitors to the V-Shapes stand, and a QR code will be on display that enables visitors to quickly and easily download the V-Shapes 3D configurator app that can be used to see how their brand will look on V-Shapes sachets. Representatives from NR Instant, a global food products manufacturer and V-Shapes customer, will also be on hand in the V-Shapes stand to share the company’s experience with its multiple V-Shapes manufacturing machines.
“We are delighted to report that we are in the process of installing the very first V-Shapes manufacturing machines in Dubai, added to the equipment we have already installed in both Thailand and Canada,” said Lorenzo Conforto, General Manager of NR Instant. “That brings our total installed base to four units worldwide, a number that will likely continue to grow as we move into a more sustainable future.”
