At Matrix Packaging, our mission is to help customers achieve packaging that is efficient, reliable, and retail-ready. A critical part of that process is ensuring every package is sealed correctly. Even minor imperfection like product in the seal, wrinkles, or folds, can compromise shelf life, product safety, and brand reputation.
That’s why Matrix partners with Engilico to offer SealScope, an innovative technology that takes seal quality to the next level. Together, we’re helping manufacturers improve package integrity, reduce waste, and optimize productivity across flexible packaging applications.
Smarter Seal Inspection with SealScope
SealScope is a 100% in-line, non-destructive seal inspection system that integrates seamlessly into flexible packaging equipment. Using sensors mounted directly on the sealing bars, SealScope inspects every package as it’s produced, comparing each seal against a reference. If a defect is detected, the package is automatically rejected, ensuring only properly sealed products continue downstream.
Beyond identifying defective seals, SealScope also acts as a real-time process monitoring tool, alerting operators if the sealing process begins to drift. This allows for proactive adjustments before issues escalate into downtime or product loss, protecting packaging quality and boosting line efficiency.
Seamless Integration with Matrix Solutions
As the master distributor of PACRAFT pre-made pouch machines and a leader in vertical form fill seal (VFFS) baggers, Matrix offers customers the flexibility to run a range of package types and formats. SealScope can be integrated into new PACRAFT TT-8D-N machines, and it can be retrofitted onto existing Matrix VFFS machines, Bartelt horizontal form fill seal machines, and Reepack flow wrappers.
This flexibility means customers don’t need to overhaul existing lines to benefit from advanced seal inspection. Instead, they can enhance packaging performance while protecting their current equipment investment.
Why It Matters for Our Customers
For today’s food, pet care, and consumer goods manufacturers, seal integrity is non-negotiable. Shoppers expect freshness and safety every time they open a package, and retailers demand consistent quality on store shelves. By pairing Matrix’s rugged and versatile packaging equipment with Engilico’s SealScope technology, we’re helping customers:
- Eliminate defective packages before they reach consumers
- Extend product shelf life and safeguard brand trust
- Reduce product waste and improve sustainability
- Gain actionable data for proactive maintenance and process improvements
- Increase line efficiency and minimize costly downtime
