SDH-R automatic middle eastern filling, sealing & cupping for Saudi Arabia food producers. Servo-driven precision at 30 cups per minute — from $45,000 USD.
The Short Answer
Tahini and labneh filling machine in Saudi Arabia: 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. In Saudi Arabia, the SDH-R is built in Calgary with an 8-12 week lead time from order confirmation. Our Calgary engineering team supports the CE-marked machine directly, and installation and training details are confirmed in the quote.

Middle Eastern Packaging for Saudi Arabia 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.
Saudi Arabia's food industry is undergoing rapid transformation under Vision 2030's National Industrial Development and Logistics Program. MODON industrial cities in Riyadh, Jeddah, and Dammam host food manufacturers scaling to replace imports. The Kingdom's $40B+ annual food import bill creates massive opportunity for domestic producers, especially in hummus, labneh, and dairy — categories where the SDH-R's automation replaces expensive manual labor while maintaining halal-compliant hygiene.
Tahini & Labneh Packaging in Saudi Arabia: What Local Producers Should Know
Saudi Arabia pairs a large, young and fast-growing consumer base with a national push, under the Vision 2030 programme, to produce more of its food at home. A sizeable domestic dairy industry already supplies chilled yogurt, labneh and cheese, while grocery chains, hypermarkets and a busy quick-service and home-delivery scene keep cup-packed dips and spreads moving. Labneh, hummus, mutabbal and tahini sit alongside foul on many tables, and demand spikes around Ramadan and the Hajj and Umrah seasons. Automated filling helps producers hold portions steady and cope with those peaks.
Summer heat is intense, and distances between Riyadh, Jeddah and the Eastern Province are long, so unbroken refrigerated transport is central to getting cups to shelf in good condition. Producers work under the Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA), which oversees food safety. A tamper-evident roll-film seal protects product in transit, and optional nitrogen MAP supports longer refrigerated life. The SDH-R's 304 stainless steel, CIP and tool-free strip-down, plus CE, FDA-compliant materials and UL listing, support hygiene routines.

How the SDH-R Fills Middle Eastern in Saudi Arabia
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 middle eastern packaging in Saudi Arabia.
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 Saudi Arabia 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 middle eastern, this extends refrigerated shelf life from 7–10 days to 30–45+ days — essential for retail distribution in Saudi Arabia.
