Sarasota, FL – PPi Technologies, the leading manufacturer and distributor of pouch packaging machine technology for the food and beverage industry, today announced that it has sold its 1000th machine. With the widest variety of pouch packaging equipment in the industry, PPi Technologies GROUP is the largest distributor and manufacturer of customized beverage pouch and spouted stand up pouch machines in North America, and is setting the standard for the pouch packaging industry.

"We are very excited to be among the first companies in our industry to reach this milestone in selling StandUp pouch packaging technology," said R. Charles Murray, Chief Executive Officer.

About PPi Technologies
PPi Technologies GROUP started in 1996 by The Murray Family, who wanted to sell both machinery and consumables as a "total system" rather than just selling Stand Up pouch machinery. The older single-source machine supply very often did not offer the customer the best solution. This new custom approach resulted in a joint venture with Laudenberg (Now SN Machinery) of Germany, Nishibe of Japan and Leepack of Korea in a new company called PROFILE® Packaging and PakSource Group companies. These companies were formed to sell machinery that manufactures pouches with slider and press-to-close zippers from printed laminated roll stock films and also offers prefabricated pouches with spout fitments.
