THE COMPLETE GUIDE TO MOBILE PACKAGING UNITS

A mobile packaging unit is a containerised or mobile bagging system built into a shipping container. It combines weighing, filling, bag handling, and palletising into a complete solution that can be deployed quickly wherever you need packaging capacity.

Unlike traditional stationary packaging systems, mobile units:

• Require minimal site preparation
• Can be relocated without construction work
• Operate in limited or temporary spaces
• Serve industries where space and mobility are priorities

Units in our range include the BAC‑600M for compact, semi-automatic applications and the BAC‑1000A for higher throughput, fully automated operations.

Whether you’re handling aggregates, wood pellets, animal feed, rock salt, fertiliser, or other bulk products, these systems bring automation closer to where the action happens.

1. On‑Site Packaging Flexibility

Mobile units let you run packaging operations right where your product is stored or produced. That means reducing material handling steps, cutting transport costs, and boosting overall efficiency.

2. Fast Deployment, Minimal Setup & Space

Because these systems arrive pre‑configured and fully built, you can be operational quickly. No civil works, foundations, or dedicated building space required. Housed in a compact footprint, a mobile packaging unit combines key packaging functions in one place

3. Scalable to Your Needs

Whether your business demands semi‑automatic operation (BAC‑600M) or fully automated throughput (BAC‑1000A), mobile units can be customised to your application and production volumes.

Mobile packaging units are versatile and designed to handle a wide range of products, including:

• Aggregates and mineral products
• Wood pellets and fuel products
• Animal feed and agricultural materials
• Rock salt and fertiliser
  … and more, depending on your process and bag format.

They’re built to support multiple bag sizes and materials, from open‑mouth sacks to more specialised formats, making them ideal for diverse product lines or seasonal packaging campaigns.

Choosing a mobile packaging solution can deliver measurable results:

• Lower Operational Costs – Reduce internal handling and labour with automated processes
• Higher Productivity – Increase bagging output without expanding fixed infrastructure
• Flexibility to Adapt – Move systems to different sites or storage locations as needed
• Improved Consistency – Integrated weighing and control systems mean accurate, repeatable fills
• Modular Options – Add palletising, wrapping, or robot integration to suit your workflow
