V-Shapes’ innovative single portion sachets feature a patented opening system. The sachets open easily with a single gesture using one hand. They are hygienic, reduce product waste and spoilage and increase consumer convenience – no messy spills and no need for scissors or other implements – and they are comprised of sustainable, recyclable substrates.
It’s the new way to produce single doses of a variety of products, extracting virtually all of the packaged product without waste or spillage.
Ventures Bridge is V-Shapes’ sales partner and busy placing these revolutionary packaging machines in around the globe.
V-Shapes sachets are solid, long-lasting packets that are safe and impact-resistant. They can be produced using materials that are 80% bio-based as well as with monopolymers that are 100% recyclable, while guaranteeing a shelf-life performance not too different from traditional materials.
The production rate is not the only competitive advantage to these machines. They are unbeatable when equipped with a digital printer that uses ink jet printing for high-quality on-demand printing of branding and other information on each sachet. Digital printing enables customization of sachets and messaging that is not possible to achieve with conventional single-dose manufacturing processes.

For brands, packaging converters and co-packers, the opportunities are limitless. It starts with access to the V-Shapes App where interested parties can create 3D versions of branded sachets to see how their brand and messaging will look on the printed, finished sachets. Because sachets are produced on demand with digital inkjet printing, brands can quickly respond to seasonal, geographic, and other changes in messaging and branding, producing only what is needed and reducing inventory risk.
V-Shapes’ packaging machines typically come up to volume quickly, reaching a daily packaging rate of single dose sachets that offers a huge improvement over any other available single-unit packaging solutions on the market today. Plus, they are easy to operate, even for a less skilled operator, and have a compact footprint. According to a V-Shapes customer in South Africa, a colleague producing single-unit salad dressing said her current single-serve packaging process requires six times the space required by a V-Shapes ALPHA to produce the same amount of product.
V-Shapes offers a huge improvement over any other single-dose packaging solution on the market today, thanks to the flexibility of its machines, which include:
- Its entry-level single-lane machine, V-Shapes PRIME, that can produce 2,100 finished and filled single-dose sachets per hour, representing an extremely compact solution that enables lean production and fast delivery in minimal space.
- V-Shapes ALPHA, a six-lane machine that can produce 20,000 filled and finished single-dose sachets per hour, adding up to 350,000 single-dose sachets in 24 hours.
