Simply
Since its founding in 1992, Bossar has solidified its position and worldwide leadership as a
Horizontal form-fill-seal packaging machine designer and manufacturer. Building machines
is a culture, a result of many years of experience and, a learning curve on how to supply the
market with products which set new standards. Focusing mainly on the Horizontal form-
Flexible.
fill-seal (HFFS) machines, Bossar has gained an excellent reputation throughout the years
for being an innovation-driven company, introducing technological advances in the market,
which have set new standards in HFFS manufacturing.
Thanks to the experience and know-how gained during the 25+ years of our activity, Bossar
has been able to further expand its horizons and range of products. The partnership with
our sister company, Scholle IPN, resulted in the introduction of several innovations and new
machine concepts for both pouches and bag-in-box.

The BMS features a transmission system, a Bossar patented invention, which enables multiple independent
axis movements. This technology substitutes the traditional and standard single cam shaft, and therefore
has significantly fewer mechanical parts. The control is provided by means of an intuitive touch screen HMI,

The partnership between Bossar and Scholle IPN has led to several innovations, including the development of new machine concepts for pouches and bag-in-box systems . This collaboration has focused on creating recyclable total packaging solutions, demonstrating an eco-sustainable approach to packaging while maintaining functional performance . These advancements have set new standards in the flexible packaging market, showcasing an industry trend towards sustainability and innovation .
Bossar's use of servo technology enables independent movements of machine parts, which allows for easier format change-overs and adaptability to multiple packaging formats . This results in higher efficiency during operations, less mechanical wear and tear, and minimal film wastage. Moreover, it facilitates precise control over pouch formation and filling processes, enhancing the overall efficiency and reliability of packaging operations without significant downtime .
Recycling and eco-friendly practices are integral to Bossar's packaging innovations, as they focus on creating recyclable materials and reducing component weight to minimize resource use . This approach supports environmental sustainability while meeting consumer demands for eco-friendly packaging solutions. The collaboration with Scholle IPN emphasizes the importance of eco-sustainability in strategic product development, positioning Bossar favorably within a market increasingly driven by ecological considerations .
Bossar's BMS differs from traditional packaging machines by using a patented transmission system that allows for multiple independent axis movements rather than the standard single cam shaft, which significantly reduces the number of mechanical parts . This innovation not only makes the BMS easier to operate and more reliable but also requires minimal maintenance. It provides greater flexibility and adaptability across various formats due to full servo control, contributing to higher quality pouch production with fewer mechanical complications .
The Bossar Camera System (BCS) plays a crucial role in ensuring quality assurance by monitoring pouch placement and sealing accuracy, which minimizes defects and improves product consistency . It enhances operational efficiency by reducing downtime through real-time monitoring and immediate error detection, leading to faster response and correction times, thereby increasing throughput and reducing waste. This system exemplifies Bossar's drive for technological leadership and efficiency in the packaging industry .
Bossar's commitment to innovation is reflected in their scientific approach to R&D, using techniques like FEA for material behavior analysis and CFD for fluid dynamics . They conduct process simulations to predict outcomes, which minimizes errors and delays in production .

From an operational perspective, Bossar's Pre-Made pouch system offers benefits such as simplicity in the filling process, longer filling times for accuracy, and reduced splash, enhancing product texture . It provides a low-barrier entry for brands into the spouted pouch market . However, the system could have drawbacks such as requiring specific machinery investments or adaptability to existing systems. For consumers, the convenience of easy-to-use, flexible packaging is a clear benefit, although the complexity of recycling such innovative materials might pose challenges .
Advanced computational models such as Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) in Bossar's R&D allow for detailed analysis of material behavior and fluid flows, respectively . These models help anticipate seal performance and product interactions within packaging, ensuring optimal machine design and reduced risk of failure. They support innovative engineering strategies that enhance machine efficiency and adaptability, solidifying Bossar's position as a leader in packaging machinery solutions .
Flexible packaging offers significant environmental benefits including resource efficiency, as it requires less raw material and natural resources in production . It also results in optimized product-to-pack ratios, reduced transportation needs, lower energy usage, and less product waste due to extended shelf life, which ultimately reduces waste before recycling .
Bossar incorporates sterility into their machines using features such as laminar flow, UV lamps, and hydrogen peroxide to achieve ultra-clean levels essential for products with short shelf lives like fruit juice and dairy . This is significant as it ensures high sterility, reducing microbial contamination in sealed packages, making the packaging suitable for cold-chain distribution and enhancing product shelf life and safety .
