Founded in 1964 by Pietro Fioravanti under the name Italianapack, SPS Italiana Pack Systems rejoined the PFM Group in October 2003. SPS specialize in fully automatic packaging systems for bakery and confectionery applications, as well as sandwiching systems. Main markets are Europe, USA, The Middle and Far East. SPS build systems to take off products arriving from ovens and cooling tunnels as biscuits, bars, cakes and wafers in order to create different pack configurations by means of automatic systems and finally wrap them in pillow-packs. Machinery includes high-speed flowrappers for single-count products, biscuits on pile and on edge, multipack, various type of ancillary equipment and complete lines. Continuous research and development, on which SPS spends 3% of turnover together with regular training updates for staff, have allowed SPS to achieve the best use of technology employed in industry.
