Autopack and Weightpack partner to bring net weight filling systems to UK market

UK packaging line integrator Autopack has entered into a strategic partnership with Italian equipment manufacturer Weightpack, giving UK manufacturers direct access to Weightpack’s net weight filling and capping technology backed by local commercial and technical support.

The partnership covers the food, drink, chemical, cleaning, personal care and wider liquid packaging sectors. Weightpack’s systems are designed for accuracy and hygiene across a broad range of applications, handling products from thin, free-flowing liquids to viscous materials, and are adaptable to a variety of closure formats including screw caps, flip-tops, pump dispensers, spray triggers and specialist closures.

UK customers will benefit from local commercial advice, technical assistance and faster access to spare parts, with joint training programmes between the two companies’ technical teams covering installation, calibration, maintenance and on-site service.

Jonathon Stewart, UK sales director at Autopack, said the partnership adds a proven, high-quality net weight filling solution to its portfolio and strengthens the company’s ability to support customers seeking accuracy, flexibility and long-term reliability, complementing its existing international partnerships.

Massimiliano Milletti, area sales manager at Weightpack, said the UK is an important market for the company and that working with Autopack provides a strong local partner with the technical capability and customer relationships to support manufacturers effectively.
