Start with the Finished Pack
For a bakery packaging enquiry, send a photo of the product and the pack you want to make. Include how many pieces go in each pack and whether they sit in a tray. A product name alone, such as “cake” or “biscuit,” leaves too much unanswered to choose a machine.
The questions below help you prepare a brief. Available configurations and suitability for your product still need confirmation from the LINEVO team. This page sorts bakery products into the flow-wrap questions that change the enquiry. It does not assign a machine, a film or a packing rate.
| Product you are packing | What to settle first | Page that continues the brief |
|---|---|---|
| Cookies or biscuits | One piece, a stack, a flat group or a tray | Cookie and biscuit packaging |
| Bread, loaves or rolls | A sealed film wrap, or a bag with a separate closure | Bread packaging |
| Cakes, pastries or wafers | Decorations, coatings and any tray or card that must stay intact | Cakes, pastries or wafers |
Cookies and Biscuits
Show the intended arrangement: a single biscuit, a stack, a group laid flat or a filled tray. Measure the whole group as it will enter the wrapper. If pieces already break during handling, include photos of the damage and a video of the transfer point.
The cookie and biscuit packaging page lists the pack and feeding details to discuss.
Bread and Buns
Include the smallest and largest products, their temperature at packing and a sample of the desired bag or wrapper. Say whether the pack needs a closure that can be opened and closed again. A sealed film wrap with a long seam and two end seals is a flow-wrap question. A bag closed with a clip, tie or gathered neck is a different operation. These details frame the discussion about bread packaging.
Cakes, Pastries and Wafers
Photograph the product with any tray or paper support in place. Point out decorations, coatings and edges that must stay intact. For a group of wafers or pastries, show how you want the pieces arranged inside the pack.
Include those requirements in a trial brief for cakes and pastries or wafers. Ask the team to confirm which feeding and support arrangements are available before planning around one.
Show How the Product Reaches the Wrapper
A short video of the existing line can explain more than a machine list. Show the product leaving the previous process, how it is grouped and where an operator currently handles it. Note what happens when the line pauses.
For a new line, a sketch is enough to begin. Mark the equipment supplied by others and the space available for the wrapper and its infeed.
List Film, Changeover and Cleaning Requirements
Send the film specification if you have one. If several products will share the machine, list each product and pack size separately. Ask which changes need adjustments, tooling or a different film reel.
Describe your cleaning requirements and ask how the proposed equipment will meet them. Any certification or hygiene claim needs documentation for the actual configuration.
Agree What a Bakery Trial Must Show
Before sending samples, agree the quantity, destination and checks with the team. Record the product, film and proposed machine setup. Decide how to count damaged products and unacceptable packs, and which seal checks are required.
Use the requirements checklist to keep these details together. This page contains no bakery trial results; performance for your product remains to be tested.
