Tahini & Labneh Filling Machine in Israel

SDH-R automatic middle eastern filling, sealing & cupping for Israel food producers. Servo-driven precision at 30 cups per minute — from $45,000 USD.

The Short Answer

Tahini and labneh filling machine in Israel: The SDH-R packs labneh, tahini, baba ganoush, muhammara and toum into pre-formed 4 to 16 oz cups in one rotary pass. A servo piston handles thick strained cheese and pourable tahini alike, and a roll-film membrane gives each cup a tamper-evident heat seal. For Israeli producers, the SDH-R is built in Calgary and delivered 8-12 weeks after order confirmation. Our Calgary engineering team supports it directly from Alberta, and installation and training details for the CE-marked machine are confirmed in the quote.

Middle Eastern Packaging for Israel Producers

Labneh, tahini, baba ganoush, muhammara, and hummus are the cornerstone products of Middle Eastern food culture — and increasingly, global food culture. The SDH-R is the machine of choice for Middle Eastern food producers scaling from artisan production to retail and export volumes. It handles the full viscosity range from thin tahini to thick strained labneh, with MAP options for the 30–45 day shelf life required by overseas distributors.

Israel's hummus industry is the most advanced in the world — producing for a domestic market where average consumption exceeds 10kg per person per year and for export markets that generate hundreds of millions in annual revenue. Israeli food technology companies are among the most innovative globally, and the country's food producers demand equipment that delivers consistent quality at high volume. The SDH-R's servo-driven precision handles Israel's characteristically thick, textured hummus varieties without compromising fill-weight accuracy.

Local guide

Tahini & Labneh Packaging in Israel: What Local Producers Should Know

Hummus is a staple of Israeli tables, and the wider salatim spread of tahini, labneh, white cheeses, eggplant salads and matbucha keeps chilled dips on the menu at home and in restaurants. Israel also has a strong dairy tradition and a reputation for food technology and plant-based innovation. Producers supply supermarket chains, neighbourhood groceries, restaurants, hotels and institutional catering. Labour costs are high and the domestic market is compact, so quick changeovers between flavours and cup sizes matter as much as raw speed.

Israel's coastal plain has hot, humid summers and the Negev is hotter and drier, so chilled distribution runs on tight temperature control. Producers work under the Ministry of Health's National Food Service. Kashrut supervision, where a product needs it, is arranged by the producer and is separate from the machine; the SDH-R carries no such certification. It is built in 304 stainless steel with CIP and tool-free strip-down, uses FDA-compliant food-contact materials and is CE-marked, with a tamper-evident roll-film seal.

How the SDH-R Fills Middle Eastern in Israel

Fully automatic process — no manual labour required

1

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 middle eastern packaging in Israel.

2

Servo-Driven Filling

The volumetric piston filler draws a precise dose of middle eastern and dispenses it into the cup. Servo control adjusts stroke length and speed per recipe, maintaining ±0.5% fill-weight accuracy across production runs for Israel retail compliance.

3

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.

4

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.

5

MAP Nitrogen Flush (Optional)

Modified Atmosphere Packaging replaces oxygen with food-grade nitrogen before sealing. For middle eastern, this extends refrigerated shelf life from 7–10 days to 30–45+ days — essential for retail distribution in Israel.

Compliance & Certifications: Every SDH-R machine ships with CE, FDA, and UL documentation. The 304 stainless-steel construction meets HACCP and BRCGS standards — ensuring your middle eastern packaging meets Israel regulatory requirements.
