Find out how our expertise can help you select the ideal equipment for your production.
At Sermatec, we know that every need is unique. That's why we've put together this guide to help you make the right choice. Here's our advice on choosing the most suitable clip-on bagging machine for your business.
Personalised support from our sales team
At SERMATEC, we are convinced that the success of an industrial equipment project depends above all on a thorough understanding of the specific needs of each customer. That's why our sales approach goes far beyond simply selling machines: we favour a genuine partnership, initiated at the earliest stages of your project.
Understanding your bagging needs
Our sales team, with its wealth of experience in the industrial packaging sector, always starts with a detailed analysis of your production context. This essential first step enables us to identify precisely :
- The nature and characteristics of your products (dimensions, fragility, special features)
- Your current production volumes and development targets
- Your space constraints and integration into your existing line
- Your requirements in terms of speed and performance
- The types of bags you want to use (materials, formats, thicknesses)
This in-depth analysis phase helps to avoid sizing errors and ensures that the equipment proposed meets your expectations perfectly, both in terms of performance and return on investment.
An approach focused on your production constraints
Over and above the purely technical aspects, our support also takes into account all the constraints specific to your production environment:
- Hygiene requirements and health standards specific to your sector
- Maintenance requirements and availability of technical teams
- Evolving needs and possibilities for future adaptation
- Integration into your information system and supply chain
- Training required for your operators
This global vision means we can offer you not just a machine, but a complete solution that's perfectly integrated into your industrial ecosystem. Our sales representative systematically organises on-site visits to get a real feel for your working environment and your specific constraints.
