Packaging Services Instead of Buying Machinery

Take advantage of modern packaging technology—with predictable costs and a service model that fits your business case

Packaging as a Service, or PaaS® for short, combines packaging technology, service, replacement parts, consumables, and rental into a customized solution.

Instead of purchasing a machine that requires a high initial investment, you use exactly the packaging capacity your company needs. The term, monthly rate, and scope of services are tailored to your application, your utilization, and your business growth.

GREIF-VELOX contributes its technical expertise in packaging and service.
CHG-MERIDIAN complements this experience with flexible rental and usage models.

Your Benefits with Packaging as a Service

Preserve Cash Flow

No large initial investment. Instead, you’ll have predictable monthly costs and additional financial flexibility.

Reducing Risks

Service, replacement parts, and consumables can be factored in as integral components of the model.

Grow Flexibly

Term lengths and payment plans can be tailored to the startup, ramp-up, and revenue-generating phases.

Ensuring Performance

Maintenance, support, and digital services help ensure stable processes and high equipment availability.

Reducing Complexity

Technology, service, and usage model are considered and coordinated together.

More Than Just Leasing

A managed packaging solution instead of just machine financing

Packaging as a Service goes beyond traditional leasing: The model combines packaging technology with the services that are essential for stable, cost-effective, and predictable operations.

Depending on the application, the PaaS® model may include the following components:

  • Packaging machine or packaging system
  • Installation and commissioning
  • Maintenance and inspection
  • Technical support and remote maintenance
  • Strategic replacement and wear parts
  • Consumables such as bags or containers
  • Digital Services and Process Optimization
  • Customized Rental and Payment Plans

The specific services included depend on the particular process, the desired scope of services, and the respective business case.

You don’t just get technology. You get predictable packaging performance based on a fixed monthly rate.

VeloVac as a PaaS® solution

Cost-Effective Packaging of Ultra-Light Powders

When it comes to ultralight powders with a high air content, the bagging machine alone does not determine cost-effectiveness. The key factor is the interplay of product compaction, packaging material, process stability, service, spare parts supply, and logistics.

VeloVac vacuum technology compacts the product directly inside the bag. Depending on the product and application, this can result in more compact bags, more stable pallets, and significant savings in storage and transportation costs.

Potential benefits:

Up to four times greater product density
Up to 75 percent lower storage and logistics costs
clean and low-dust bagging
Improved pallet stability
Reduced product spillage
Coordinated supply of service, replacement parts, and bags
