Spring into Protein Production

March 24, 2026

Easter brings one of the biggest surges in protein demand of the year, and while BBQ season is enjoyed year-round, spring always brings a noticeable lift in demand. Retailers and consumers alike expect consistent portions, attractive presentation, and extended shelf life. Your production line must deliver confidence in every ‘cut, pack, and label’.

That’s where MULTIVAC’s integrated workflow comes in:

Why processors choose MULTIVAC:

Our volumetric portioners ensure accurate cuts with consistent sizing and minimal end-cut waste, even when handling bone-in or irregularly shaped primals. With no grippers and volumetric forming, our portioners can often produce an extra slice out of every primal, maximizing yield.

For sliced deli SKUs, our slicers ensure gentle, clean cuts, precise stacks and shingled portions for processors who need to increase throughput and require minimal operator involvement. 

Once your product is prepared, our thermoforming solutions offer a flexible way to run vacuum, skin and modified atmosphere packs (MAP), while our traysealing solutions produce premium MAP and skin packs with excellent seal integrity while accommodating PaperBoard, mono-materials, plastics, aluminum, and more.

To complete the workflow, our labellers offer top/bottom, and wrap-around applications with options for integrated printing and inspection, ensuring every pack leaves your facility accurate, compliant and ready for a premium retail presentation. Designed for versatility, they support MAP, skin, Paperboard, mono-material and thermoformed packs, helping reduce rework while maintaining consistent brand quality at retail.

Bring your products, and we’ll perform live application testing with the support of our product specialists at our innovation centre in Brampton, ON, to optimize:

• Portion weight accuracy
• Slice uniformity
• Pack integrity
• Label readability, inspection & compliance

All our machines feature MULTIVAC Hygienic Design and are easy and quick to clean. We also understand that one size doesn’t fit all, so we offer models in both smaller and larger sizes to suit your needs, plus they can be used on the production floor as standalone units and integrated into your existing line.
