Hummus Packaging for Naples Producers
Naples is home to Campania tomato-sauce, ragu, and Mediterranean-spread producers. The SDH-R rotary hummus filling, sealing & cupping machine gives these producers a single, compact line that automates cup denesting, volumetric filling, membrane sealing, lidding, and optional nitrogen flushing — without the labour cost of manual packing.
Hummus is the SDH-R's signature product. The servo-driven volumetric piston filler handles classic, roasted garlic, roasted red pepper, lemon herb, and every other hummus variant with consistent fill weights and clean cup edges. Chickpea-based products have a medium-to-thick viscosity that the SDH-R's adjustable piston stroke manages precisely — from smooth restaurant-style hummus to chunky rustic blends with whole chickpeas and pine nuts.
Hummus Packaging in Naples: What Local Producers Should Know
Naples and the wider Campania region are famous for San Marzano tomatoes, buffalo mozzarella, Gragnano pasta and the pizza tradition, and the area supports a dense mix of food processors, sauce makers and dairies. Traditions of tomato, olive oil, vegetable and fresh cheese translate naturally into chilled dips, sauces and spreads. Retail, street food, pizzerias and a lively tourist trade create steady demand, and cup-packed products reach shops across southern Italy. As producers aim for consistent portions and easier labour planning, automatic rotary filling is a practical upgrade from manual packing.
Naples has a major port, Capodichino airport and motorway connections north to Rome and south along the Tyrrhenian coast. Hot summer weather puts pressure on the cold chain, particularly on southern roads. Producers work under Regulation (EC) No 852/2004 on food hygiene and (EC) No 1935/2004 on food-contact materials, with inspection by local health authorities in Campania. The SDH-R's 304 stainless steel, CIP and tool-free strip-down, and tamper-evident roll-film seal help meet those requirements.

Fill hummus base + olive oil drizzle + paprika garnish in a single cup pass. Up to three filler stations work simultaneously for layered presentations.
MAP Nitrogen Flushing
Modified Atmosphere Packaging replaces oxygen with nitrogen, extending refrigerated hummus shelf life from 7–10 days to 30–45+ days for retail distribution.

How the SDH-R Fills Hummus in Naples
Fully automatic process — no manual labour required
Cup Denesting
Empty cups are automatically separated from a nested stack and placed into the rotary table carriers. The pneumatic denester handles round, square, and rectangular cups from 2oz to 32oz — standard formats for hummus brands in Naples.
Servo-Driven Filling
The volumetric piston filler draws a precise dose of hummus and dispenses it into the cup. Servo control adjusts stroke length and speed per recipe, holding ±0.5% fill-weight accuracy across every run for Naples retail compliance.
Membrane Heat Sealing
Roll-stock film is drawn across the filled cup and heat-sealed to create a tamper-evident, airtight membrane. Temperature, pressure, and dwell time are individually controlled to match your specific film and cup material.
Snap-On Lid (Optional)
A pick-and-place mechanism applies a consumer-friendly snap-on lid over the membrane seal. This two-barrier system provides tamper evidence and reclosability — the standard expected by grocery retailers.
MAP Nitrogen Flush (Optional)
Modified Atmosphere Packaging replaces oxygen with food-grade nitrogen before sealing. For hummus, this extends refrigerated shelf life from 7–10 days to 30–45+ days — essential for distribution across Naples and beyond.
