Recognizing changing packaging trends and the push for more eco-friendly options, Ossid partnered with Reepack, an Italian manufacturer of food packaging equipment. This partnership expanded Ossid's solutions to include tray sealers, standard thermoformers, vacuum chamber machines, and flow wrapping equipment. Today, Ossid serves as a single-source supplier for food and medical device packaging, weigh price labeling machines, and case scales. Located in North Carolina, Ossid provides parts, installation, training, and service to its customers.

John Wind, Product Line Manager for the Industrial Scale Division at Ossid, highlighted their capabilities in weigh price labeling and project management. A customer needed a new distribution center, requiring data integration into their ERP system, automatic case delivery, case packing, and case sealing equipment. Leveraging ProMach sister companies, Ossid supplied all external equipment outside of weighing and labeling.

Ossid's weigh price labeling equipment can label over 100 packs per minute, featuring two applicator systems: a multi-finger independently floating applicator for high-profile and irregular packages, and an air jet system for flat packages with programmable nozzles for accurate label placement. Integrated options include a reject system for weight discrepancies or mislabeled products, and inkjet systems for remote setup based on ERP orders.

After labeling, packages are manually packed into cases, automatically delivered, weighed, and labeled using a Windows-based operating system. The cases are then sealed, with additional options for taping or strapping. The project included case erecting systems and conveyance managed by ProMach sister companies, with automatic box delivery.
