Tahini & Labneh Filling Machine in Florida
SDH-R automatic middle eastern filling, sealing & cupping for Florida food producers. Servo-driven precision at 30 cups per minute — from $45,000 USD.
The Short Answer
Tahini and labneh filling machine in Florida: 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 Florida, every machine is built in Calgary and ships on an 8-12 week lead time from order confirmation, with support from our New Jersey service center, the nearest to the state, and a 12-month warranty.

Middle Eastern Packaging for Florida 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.
Miami is both a food-production hub and a gateway for Latin American food exports. Tampa and Orlando host growing artisan food sectors, while Jacksonville serves as a logistics hub for southeastern distribution. Florida's warm climate makes MAP nitrogen flushing especially valuable — the SDH-R's optional MAP system reduces residual oxygen to 0.3–0.4%, extending refrigerated shelf life well beyond standard membrane-sealed products. This is critical for Florida producers distributing across the Southeast.
Tahini & Labneh Packaging in Florida: What Local Producers Should Know
Florida's food market mirrors its population: Cuban, Caribbean and Latin American communities in the south, Greek and Mediterranean roots around Tampa Bay, a large retiree base and year-round visitors. That mix sustains demand for dips, spreads, salsas, yogurts and sauces across grocery, foodservice, hotels and resorts. Citrus, strawberries, tomatoes, avocados and tropical fruit give regional food makers a local ingredient base. For producers still portioning by hand, automatic cup filling brings consistent fill weights, tamper-evident seals and relief from the hourly labor pressure of a fast-growing state.
Heat and humidity last most of the year, and hurricane season from June through November shapes inventory and downtime planning. Cold-chain freight moves along I-95, I-75 and the Florida Turnpike, with PortMiami, Port Everglades, Port Tampa Bay and JAXPORT handling seaborne cargo. Plants answer to FDA's FSMA Preventive Controls for Human Food rule (21 CFR Part 117) and the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. The SDH-R's food-grade 304 stainless steel and tool-free strip-down suit frequent washdowns.

How the SDH-R Fills Middle Eastern in Florida
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 Florida.
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 Florida 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 Florida.
