At Kohler Industries, we don’t just build equipment—we solve problems. When a leading pet food processor faced a packaging challenge that disrupted their shipping efficiency, they turned to us for a solution.
Here’s what was happening: after vacuum sealing their wet product, the pouches were sent to a blast freezer and then packed into cardboard boxes for retail distribution. But the frozen pouches were coming out in irregular, non-uniform shapes—making it difficult to stack them neatly and hit target box capacities.
Our answer? A custom-engineered, high-speed package flattener.
Designed to integrate seamlessly into their existing production line, this simple system gently presses each pouch into a uniform, rectangular shape between two adjustable belts—right before the blast freezing step. The result: consistently shaped frozen bricks that stack perfectly, improving packaging efficiency and reducing waste.
At Kohler Industries, we combine precision engineering with practical insight to keep your operations running smoother, faster, and smarter.
