Schubert North America to Showcase Flowpacker at IBIE 2025 Highlighting Flexibility, Efficiency, and Future-Ready Bakery Packaging

Schubert North America, a leader in modular, robot-based packaging solutions, is proud to announce its participation in IBIE 2025, taking place September 14–17 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Visitors can find the Schubert team at Booth #201 in the West Hall, where the company will showcase its cutting-edge Flowpacker system—demonstrating how flexibility and precision are reshaping bakery packaging in North America.

Spotlight on the Flowpacker

At the heart of this year’s exhibit is the Flowpacker, Schubert’s advanced horizontal flow-wrapping solution. Designed to integrate seamlessly into modular packaging systems, the Flowpacker features a fully automated pick-and-place system that gently handles delicate baked goods such as croissants, pastries, and cookies, ensuring high-speed performance with minimal waste.

“Our goal at IBIE is to show how the Flowpacker provides the perfect combination of efficiency, flexibility, and product protection—especially for bakeries needing a future-proof solution,” says Hartmut Siegel, CEO of Schubert North America. “Visitors will see how it adapts easily to changing formats, materials, and production volumes.”

A Must-See Stand for Future-Ready Packaging

Attendees should walk away with one key message: Schubert systems are built for change. As packaging requirements evolve—whether in format, sustainability, or speed—Schubert’s modular technology ensures bakeries can scale and adapt without overhauling their lines.

Global Insights with Local Focus

When comparing North America and APAC with the European market, Schubert sees a shared demand for flexible, scalable automation. However, North America continues to prioritize labor-saving solutions and integrated systems, while APAC customers often seek compact, high-throughput machines tailored to fast-moving consumer goods.

“Globally, bakeries are asking for automation that not only delivers performance today but also gives them options for tomorrow,” adds Siegel. “That’s where Schubert stands out.”

Compact packaging: Schubert showcases space-saving technology

Although the industry often talks about lines and lanes, packaging machines don’t necessarily have to take up a lot of space. At this year’s FACHPACK, Schubert will be impressively demonstrating that compact solutions are possible with a cartoner from its ‘lightline’ series and a new, versatile high-performance erection unit. The exceptionally agile tog.519 cobot, which will be picking biscuits at remarkable speed at a partner company’s stand, will also be on display at the trade fair.
