SIG and DPA Brasil have entered into a strategic partnership. The packaging machine producer is strengthening its activities on the Brazilian market. DPA Brasil produces chilled dairy products such as yoghurts, dairy desserts, fermented milk, Petit Suisse and cottage cheese. The company has been part of the French Lactalis Group since 2023. Brands such as Leite Moça, Nescau Prontinho, Nature's Heart, Nesquik and others are already part of SIG's customer base in Brazil. For the Chamyto brand yoghurt line, SIG has also taken over the production of stand-up pouches with closures, known as spouted pouches, since the beginning of 2024.
The packaging solution consists of prefabricated stand-up pouches with closures and the "SIG Prime 120" filling machine. The aim is to support DPA Brasil in offering lightweight, robust and easy-to-use packaging that makes the products very easy to consume. This also helps to promote children's independence when eating. Chamyto yoghurt in the strawberry flavour is the first product from DPA Brasil to be available in a stand-up pouch with a seal from SIG. As part of the partnership, it has already been agreed that the fruit and vitamin yoghurts Chamyto, Chambinho Recreio and Ninho Lancheirinha will also be filled in SIG spouted pouch packaging in the future.
Vanessa Lima, Marketing Manager at DPA Brasil, explains: “It is important to us to offer parents and caregivers a product line that contributes to children’s independence, and the packaging provides this. The Chamyto yogurts themselves remain unchanged and retain their taste, quality, and nutritional value.”
Thiago Franzin, Head of Sales LATAM for Bag-in-Box and Spouted Pouch at SIG, adds: “Today, we stand out as the only company to offer aseptic carton, bag-in-box, and spouted pouch with filling and packaging solutions ranging from 50ml to 1,600 liters for industrial applications. With our high-performance technology as well as safe and flexible packaging systems, we are prepared to meet the diverse needs of the Brazilian consumer for all consumption occasions."
According to Thiago Franzin, the company endeavours to offer comprehensive solutions. These enable customers to fulfil the requirements of the modern market and strengthen their market position. With Chamyto in spouted pouch packaging, SIG is strengthening its presence in the Brazilian market as a supplier of packaging systems for the food and beverage industry.
