Welcome 

Varipac UK, have been successfully supplying specialised, bespoke, high quality horizontal thermoforming packaging equipment to the UK market for over 20 years (starting in 2003). With our expertise in this field of business, we have a wealth of product and technical knowledge, which we use to produce and supply high value, reliable, adaptable vacuum packaging and gas flushing equipment to the retail, industrial, medical and food service sectors.

The Varipac machines are primarily fully automatic in-line thermoformers and blister forming packing machines, controlled by the latest Siemens technology, which includes a colour touch screen diagnostic display. The machines are capable of storing multiple programmes to produce retail and bulk packs in vacuum, gas flushed, flexible and semi-rigid tray formats, that contains all the required operational parameters for quick, simple change-over.

The Varipac machines are of stainless steel construction and are assembled using the latest technology and highest quality component parts to guarantee longevity and reliability. The machines are designed to combine ease of use with ease of maintenance. Removable side panels, corrosion resistant film advance chains and grippers, IP65 internal components and a clean-in-place programme, combine to make these machines simple to operate and clean, enabling both high production volumes and hygiene standards to be maintained.

We are fully aware that reliability is paramount; we have supplied over 100 machines into the UK market, packing products as diverse as fresh foods e.g. cooked meats, poultry, fruit and vegetables, bacon, cheese: household equipment e.g. light bulbs, plugs/sockets, printer cartridges, even Scotch whisky as well as medical, surgical and hygiene such as toothbrushes, razors, baby bottles and teats. Our range of thermoforming equipment is augmented by our range of ancillary equipment such as labellers, fillers/depositors, gas mixers, tray lidding machines and end of line converger systems and conveyors.

Our business is built on the supply of bespoke designed, high quality machines supported by our service and spares department. Our second-to-none service and support back-up has allowed our company to grow to be a major player in the packaging industry in the face of stiff competition.

​THERMOFORMING PACKAGING MACHINES
Thermoforming packing machines allow for the creation of very unique packaging in varied and complex shapes. Proven to be among the most attention-catching packaging choices and thus leading to greater sales, thermoforming uses a roll-stock plastic sheet or film – depending on thickness - that is heated to a temperature where it becomes pliable, shaped in a custom-made mold, and finally trimmed.

BLISTER PACKAGING MACHINES
Blister packs are used to package products of all kinds, and also find specific application in the pharmaceutical sector. The advantages of Blister packaging lie in attractiveness and full product visibility, and also assurance of integrity even on a single-dose level. Blisters are made by affixing pre-formed plastic pockets to a cardboard or plastic backing, or even by folding them on themselves and heat-sealing them in what is known as a clamshell blister.

We design Thermoforming packing machines for food products of all kinds, tailor-made to customer specifications and capable of working under vacuum or in modified atmospheres. Our Food industry packaging machines are entirely built out of stainless steel, to allow for the highest levels of hygiene as required by field regulations.

Who are we

​ 
We are a British company founded in 2003 by Ian McLay in collaboration with Variovac GMBH. For 10 years we were the successful UK agents for Variovac GMBH using the name Variovac UK. As the market expanded for us into Non-food, medical and blister packing markets and with the growth in sales of ancillary equipment such as weighers, fillers, dosers, metal detection, labelling etc, we took the decision to end the partnership with Variovac GMBH and changed our trading name from Variovac UK to Varipac UK to better describe our growing range of equipment.
For more than 10 years the founder’s son has been running the company jointly and with the same enthusiasm and passion, typical distinctive features as the founder Ian McLay.
