Canadian produce machinery specialist Posie Packer has inked a distribution deal with Kent-based NP Seymour Ltd, which is offering sales and service for the Posie Packer produce bag labelling machine (pictured) for the UK market.

The machine has been developed over the past 18 months with Adrian Scripps Ltd to solve the problem of labelling wicketed bags. “Multiples in the UK require time-sensitive information on bags used for fruit and vegetables,” said md Nick Seymour.

“Presently, these labels are applied manually... This machine allows this step to be mechanised profitably.”
