Middle Eastern Packaging for Illinois & Midwest 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.

Chicago is the third-largest food manufacturing metro in the U.S., with a co-packing ecosystem that serves national brands and private-label retailers alike. Wisconsin is the leading dairy state, producing more cheese and yogurt than any other, while Michigan's food sector focuses on prepared meals and dip manufacturing. Ohio's Columbus and Cleveland corridors are home to national hummus and prepared-food distributors. The SDH-R's 30 CPM throughput matches the volume requirements of Midwest co-packers running multi-shift operations.

How the SDH-R Fills Middle Eastern in Illinois & Midwest

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 Illinois & Midwest.

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 Illinois & Midwest 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 Illinois & Midwest.

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 Illinois & Midwest regulatory requirements.
