About Us
Pacmac was founded in 1978 when Hays Biggs realized a need to help existing Packaging Specialties film customers maintain & improve their packaging equipment. The Terminella brothers, Frank, Manny, & Joe, teamed up with the help of Hays Biggs to develop a business plan to become manufacturers, distributors, and service providers for other manufacturers tray wrapping equipment. With the quick success & reliability of the Pacmac machines, it has allowed Pacmac to catapult themselves as the best & most reliable VFFS machines in today’s aggressive market. In fact, the first ever 9200 VFFS machine Pacmac built, model number 1, is still running & operation in a production plant today. Pacmac has developed into one of the most respected and innovative OEM providers of VFFS equipment in over 22 food and non-food industries.
- 1978 – Pacmac was founded as the machine division of PSI. There was a demand to assist PSI film customers in keeping their existing tray wrapping machines operational. In doing so, Pacmac took on the role of supplying and servicing other companies’ packaging machinery.
- 1989 – Pacmac developed and released the model 8900, a tray wrapping machine built in house and designed to replace the aging equipment in many of the plants where they were supporting other manufacturers equipment.
- 1990 – The Model 9000 was introduced to the market as a more efficient tray wrapping machine, capable of producing a tighter & more effective package than our competitors were capable of.
- 1992 – With the success of the tray wrapping machines, an opportunity arose to develop a VFFS machine to diversify our presence in the packaging market. The Model 9200 was developed and was the first machine to apply machine direction, re-closable zipper to bags.
- 1995 -The Model 9500 was introduced. Built on the success of the 9200, the 9500 can run wider films, produce larger bags, produce B3 zipper style bags as well as B style Pillow bags.
- 2015 – With the constantly evolving environment in the Packaging world, there became a need for a machine platform that was not only capable of more intensive washdown procedures, but a new level of field serviceability. The model 2015 is our flagship machine model and showcases an open architecture washdown design that also provides our users with the ability to access our machine’s components with an unmatched level of ease. The 2015 can produce both B3 and B style bags
- 2016 – The Model 2016 was built on the same design principles as our 2015 model but has a smaller footprint and built with speed in mind. This machine is a B style pillow bag only machine that can sustain 140 BPM.
- 2024 – Pacmac continues to improve and innovate our machine platforms based on our customers’ needs and market demands. Many exciting things are in the works, including new machine designs and packaging innovations capable of expanding our market reach.
