What Is Packaging Equipment?
Packaging equipment covers the full spectrum of machinery that gets your product ready for the retail shelf, the cool room or the courier.
This includes sealing, wrapping, labelling and protecting food and drink products once they have been sourced, picked or manufactured, ensuring products remain safe, hygienic and ready for the customer. Packaging equipment helps to extend shelf life, and prepare items for safe transport.
Think vacuum packaging machines, tray sealers, shrink wrap and flow wrap equipment, labellers and case sealers.
There are many different types of packaging machines available to purchase, ranging from liquid filling machines for drinks, vacuum sealing machinery for meats, and packaging and bagging machines for perishables, fresh foods and snacks.
It’s a slightly different job to general food processing (which transforms raw ingredients) or food manufacturing (which is about production at scale).
Packaging is an integral part of food processing as it has a critical role to play in ensuring food and drink is protected from contamination, moisture loss, and physical damage while extending shelf life. Packaging is the final, critical step that protects everything that’s come before it, as such it requires it’s own category.
Incorrect or poor packaging can ruin the most perfect product before it even reaches the customer.
If you want to find out more about equipment that can be used to transform or process raw ingredients, check out our Used Food Processing Equipment page.
Need more information on production-line or filling/depositing equipment for scaling up manufacturing, our Used Food Manufacturing Equipment page comprehensively covers that topic.
If it’s specifically about sealing, wrapping and protecting your finished product — you’ve arrived at the right place.

Why Buy Used Packaging Equipment?
Save On a Major Capital Cost
Packaging equipment can be one of the larger capital expenditures for a business in a food or beverage operation, particularly automated vacuum packaging and tray sealing lines. Often amounting to north of $100,000 – $150,000 plus for brand new equipment. Buying used gives you access to the same world-class brands without tying up the capital you need to maintain your cash flow and for every day operations in your business.
Real Equipment, Properly Checked
Used packaging equipment from Used Commercial Kitchen Equipment is sourced from genuine commercial production or test environments and liquidators. We go the extra mile by paying call out, travel and hourly rates for specialist independent technicians.
The technicians come onsite and test equipment prior to it being dispatched, at no additional cost to you.
Built To Keep Running
With the right maintenance, quality packaging equipment can perform reliably for years. And if a part does eventually need replacing, most equipment can be repaired easily and affordably using used, compatible or even OEM parts — still leaving you well ahead of what brand new equipment would have cost.
Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between packaging equipment and food processing equipment?
Food processing equipment transforms raw ingredients into a finished product — cutting, mixing, cooking. Packaging is one of the critical components of food processing. Packaging equipment is used to seal, wrap and protect a product when it is ready for sale, storage or shipping.
What size vacuum packaging machine do I need?
It depends on your product volume and packaging format. Smaller operations often suit a single or double chamber machine, while higher volume producers may need a larger automatic chamber machine or a continuous belt system.
Is used packaging equipment reliable enough for commercial production?
Yes — provided it’s sourced properly. Our equipment usually comes from genuine commercial production, test environments or liquidators. We only ever purchase top of the range well renowned and highly sought after top selling international brands of equipment. Most equipment has many years of reliable production left in it, and if it ever does require fixing, this can generally be done at a low cost using used, compatible or even OEM parts.
Do you deliver packaging equipment Australia-wide?
Yes. We can assist you with obtaining freight quotes for customers Australia wide including all major cities, regional and country areas. We also partner with international customers who purchase from overseas.
How much can I save buying used packaging equipment compared to new?
The cost saving is substantial — often saving you tens of thousands of dollars depending on the machine. Brand new commercial packaging equipment can cost a small fortune; buying used, second-hand equipment gives you the same world-class brands at a fraction of the price.
What brands of packaging equipment do you stock?
We stock a large variety of different brands of equipment, this can include brands such as VC999, Multivac, Promax, PFM, Phoenix, Ulma, Henkovac and other leading international brands trusted by Australian food and beverage businesses.
