Automated Packaging Solutions: Salt Lake City, UT

Snack-bar and cured-meat production in Salt Lake City both depend on packaging lines that hold a tight seal at high speed, whether the product is a bar or a slice of cured meat.

Flow Wrapping and Horizontal FFS Packaging for Salt Lake City's Bakery and Meat Producers

A Salt Lake City snack-bar producer's packaging line has to hold a seal at a billion-unit annual run. That kind of packaging equipment demand comes from a global snack-food manufacturer's 2025 bet on Salt Lake City: a $240 million, 339,000-square-foot bakery facility, its third US production site, running automated ingredient delivery, mixing, and cooling systems to turn out more than a billion snack bars a year. Cured-meat producers need something different from their packaging line: an artisan meat-curing company runs a 75,000-square-foot facility in the city making prosciutto, salami, coppa, and other cured products that need their own packaging approach. Food processing is Utah's largest industry by employment, accounting for roughly 12% of the state's industrial workforce, with dozens of manufacturers based in the Salt Lake City metro, and a regional grocery chain now owned by a national grocery conglomerate keeps its headquarters here as well.

PLAN IT's Pack series flow wrap machines suit individually wrapped snack bars moving off a bakery line at that pace, sealing each bar without slowing the belt. Horizontal form fill seal machines handle sliced and portioned cured meats, forming a bag around the product and sealing it in one continuous motion, suited to the prosciutto, salami, and coppa coming out of Salt Lake City's meat-curing operations. A billion-bar run only holds together if the wrap seals at bakery speed. You've hit that scale, and PLAN IT's flow-wrap equipment is built for exactly that. The seal has to hold. The Utah location page and the baked goods industry page fill in the regional picture, the flow-wrap and automatic feeding systems page and the horizontal form fill seal category page lay out the equipment specifics, and the solutions page explains what working with PLAN IT looks like, start to finish. PLAN IT keeps no office on the Wasatch Front, though producers here still get equipment sourced, integrated, and serviced directly.
