Hygienic Filling & Capping Machines for Liquid and Viscous Products

Serac has built filling and capping equipment since 1969. A dairy product doesn’t fill the same way as an edible oil. A caustic chemical doesn’t fill the same way as a sauce. Serac designs each system around the product going into it.

Serac runs six production sites across France, the US, Brazil, and Malaysia, with over 600 employees worldwide. Dairy makes up roughly half the business, alongside edible oils, home and personal care, chemicals, and beverages. Every system uses net weight filling technology to measure the actual product weight during the fill, which holds fill levels steady even when viscosity changes mid-run.

LinkPack is the authorized Canadian distributor for Serac Group. That gives you direct access to Serac’s full line: cup fillers, liquid fillers, rotary fillers, servo cappers, and aseptic systems, all supported by a bilingual team based in Quebec, with no cross-border sourcing delays.

Liquid Filling & Capping

Bottles, Rigid Containers, and High-Speed Lines

Serac’s liquid filling range covers dairy, edible oil, chemical, and beverage producers, from standard lines up to ESL and fully aseptic production. Systems scale from compact semi-automatic fillers for lower-volume runs to high-speed rotary filler-cappers for continuous production. Filling head count is set by your throughput requirement, and each configuration gets matched to your product’s flow characteristics and hygiene requirements before it’s built.

Rotary servo cappers pair with any Serac filling line to apply caps at consistent, repeatable torque, the detail that determines whether a seal holds under real shipping and shelf conditions.

Cup Filling & Sealing

From 5,000 to 12,000 Cups Per Hour

The NEO and LINEA XS ranges cover low- to medium-speed cup filling for yogurts, dairy desserts, and food products. Both are compact, indexed rotary machines that combine cup de-stacking, filling, lid placement, sealing, and coding in one footprint. LINEA XS targets medium-output producers who want Serac’s hygiene and flexibility without the investment level of a full high-speed line. Both handle cylindrical or rectangular cups, and format changes require no tools.

Layered products Like fruit-on-the-bottom yogurts, and layered desserts run through dual filling stations that handle pre-filled or post-filled layers on the same machine.

Serac Training Programs

Production, Maintenance, Automation & Hygiene

Every Serac installation includes operator training so your team isn’t figuring out the equipment on a live production line. Four programs are available:

1. 1. Production — day-to-day operation and changeover procedures
   2. Maintenance — preventive maintenance and troubleshooting
   3. Automation — PLC and controls-level training for technical staff
   4. Hygiene — CIP procedures and sanitary compliance protocols

Trained operators cut unplanned downtime and keep the equipment running at spec over its full service life.

FAQ

What products can Serac filling machines handle?

Serac systems fill liquid and viscous products including dairy (milk, yogurt, cream), edible oils, sauces, chemicals, lubricants, paints, and beverages. Configurations for caustic, volatile, and explosive-proof products are available alongside standard liquid setups.

What’s the difference between cup filling and bottle/rigid container filling?

Cup filling machines like the NEO and LINEA XS ranges fill and seal pre-formed cups; mainly yogurt, dairy desserts, and single-serve food products, at speeds up to 12,000 cups per hour. Liquid filling and capping lines handle bottles and rigid containers, scaling from semi-automatic to high-speed rotary systems for continuous production.

What does aseptic and ESL filling mean, and does Serac offer it?

Extended Shelf Life (ESL) and aseptic filling extend a product’s shelf life by removing contamination risk during the fill. This matters for dairy and other perishable liquids distributed over longer timelines. Serac’s dry, chemical-free decontamination technology treats bottles and caps as part of its aseptic and ESL configurations.

Is LinkPack the authorized Canadian distributor for Serac?

Yes. LinkPack is the authorized distributor for Serac Group filling and capping machinery across Canada, with bilingual (English/French) sales support, technical service, and after-sales assistance for Canadian installations.

How fast can a Serac filling line run?

Speed depends on the product and container format. Cup filling lines reach up to 12,000 cups per hour. Liquid filling and capping lines for bottles scale to high-speed continuous output based on filling head count and container type, LinkPack can spec exact throughput for your product and format.
