Capping and Bottle Handling Equipment for NZ Packaging Lines

APS partners with Zalkin and Pace, to deliver integrated bottle unscrambling and capping solutions that boost line efficiency, reduce downtime, and protect your product quality. As the local New Zealand partner, we make it easy for you to specify, install, and support world‑class capping and bottle handling equipment – without the headache of managing multiple offshore suppliers.

Local Partnership, Global Performance

At APS, we work directly with New Zealand beverage, dairy, food, household, and personal care manufacturers to design complete bottle-handling and capping solutions from Zalkin and Pace. Our team helps you choose the right rotary, inline, or single‑head capping machine, cap handling system, and bottle unscrambler to suit your container types, caps, line speeds, hygiene standards, and budget.

We manage the project from initial concept and ROI discussion through to installation, operator training, and ongoing service, so you have a single local point of contact for your capper and bottle-handling lines. That means faster response times, better communication, and solutions tuned to New Zealand production realities, not just catalogue specs.

World‑Class Capping Technology

Through Zalkin, we supply high‑performance capping machines, decappers, and cap handling systems proven in high‑speed plants worldwide. Whether you need screw capping, roll‑on pilfer‑proof (ROPP), push‑on, snap, or specialty closures, we can specify rotary or inline systems that deliver precise torque control, repeatable seal integrity, and rapid, tool‑less changeovers.

Zalkin backs this technology with deep application engineering, including technical white papers on topics such as plastic microparticles, retorted beverages in plastic bottles, bulk cap feeding, and advanced electronic torque control. For you, that means capping solutions that support food safety, brand protection, sustainability goals, and OEE improvements – not just machines that turn caps.

Zalkin and Pace Working Together

Pace specialises in bottle unscramblers and orienting systems that feed containers consistently to fillers and cappers at production speeds. By combining Pace unscramblers with Zalkin cap handling and capping equipment, we can deliver a fully integrated infeed‑to‑closure solution that minimises jams, misfeeds, and manual intervention.

This Zalkin–Pace combination is ideal if you are searching for complete bottle unscrambling and capping systems, high‑speed capping lines, or turnkey bottle handling solutions rather than piecing together separate machines. With APS coordinating both brands locally, your engineering and maintenance teams gain a single, accountable partner for design, integration, and after‑sales support.

Pace Omni-Line bottle orienting systems. A silver industrial machine labeled Pace BAO 5000 efficiently processes yellow plastic bottles in a production line. The bottles, guided by bottle unscramblers and orienters, are neatly aligned on a conveyor belt as they pass through the transparent section of the machine.

As APS, we plug you into this global ecosystem, so your New Zealand facility can access proven technologies, best‑practice line designs, and a broad portfolio that extends beyond capping into filling, labelling, coding, and end‑of‑line packaging.

If you are planning a new line, upgrading ageing cappers, or looking to improve line efficiency and cap application quality, talk to us about a ProMach‑backed Zalkin and Pace solution tailored to your products, speeds, and growth plans. We help you move from “what capping machine do we need?” to a fully engineered, future‑ready bottle handling and capping system that delivers measurable performance.
