Comprehensive Machine Options
Thanks to the rich reference cases and machines we have designed, ÉLITER's range of sleever machines covers all packaging configurations with options covering slower and higher speed applications.
Flexible Design and Structure
We bear flexibility and maintenance-friendliness in mind. Our sleever machines are all developed in full servo-driven anatomy with mechanisms separately controlled by their steering axis.
Food-Grade Construction
Cleanliness and food-safety are among the most-concerned factors about sleever machine which are purpose for food and dairy products. Our sleevers are fully stainless-steel constructed.
Comprehensive Sleeving Solutions & All-Round Sleever Models
Not only single, neither just multipack nor cluster, we have all of them
No sleevers are "standard" due to the varying shape and sizing of primary packaging containers, along with the fact the sleeve design does not follow a fixed pattern ever and format configurations are never the same for each project. Sleevers are among one of the most technically challenging machine categories for packaging and require proficiency in mechanical engineering - here lies the expertise of ÉLITER Packaging Machinery.
Sleever Model Options by ÉLITER
We turn custom sleeving into standard model options with past successful projects landed
While no single sleever fits every format and 'standard' solutions are rare in this industry, our extensive project history has allowed us to standardize the non-standard. We offer a proven range of ready-to-integrate models for most applications, yet remain fully equipped to engineer a bespoke system tailored specifically to your needs.
WAS-120 Wrap-Around Sleever
WAS-120 Wrap-Around Sleever is the latest model of high-speed carton sleeving machine developed on the basis of WAS-150 with functional improvement by integrating more sophisticated mechanical structures as well as additional function sections and new design of rotary sleeve feeder.
WAS-150 "ESTRENA" Sleever
The ESTRENA WAS-150 Wrap-Around Sleever is designed specifically for single-pack ready meal products in trays, tubs and similar containers, positioning each product onto a flat cardboard sleeve blank before folding the sleeve upward and closely around the pack to create a secure, compact and retail-ready presentation. Built for continuous production, the machine combines servo-driven motion control with robust stainless-steel construction to ensure accurate sleeve placement, smooth product handling and reliable operation, while its accessible design supports easier cleaning, maintenance and format changeover across different product sizes and sleeve specifications.
Miscellaneous Models
Apart from standard models developed for high-speed and relatively regular formats of carton sleeving packaging. ÉLITER Packaging Machinery has at your disposl more specifically developed models thanks to our range of projects handled for multipack, cluster and hybrid configuration of sleeving formats.
FAQs about Wrap-Around Sleever
Packaging Machine for Carton Sleeving
Wrap-Around Sleever is a packaging machine for cardboard or paperboard sleeve packaging. Sleever can be connected to upstream machines such as thermoformer, filling machine, cup sealer, ect. The wrap-around sleever is available for the packaging sleeve of ready meals in trays, dessert pots, snack pots, pet meal in tray of tubs, yogurt cups, and many things else, either in single package or in forms of multipack.

The Sustainable Cardboard Sleeve Packaging
How carton sleeves improve product presentation while reducing packaging material and plastic use.
Carton sleeve packaging refers to a packaging format in which containers such as yogurt cups, ready-meal trays, dessert pots and similar products are wrapped or enclosed by a printed cardboard or paperboard sleeve.
The sleeve provides a simple but highly visible surface for branding and product information. It can also offer a more sustainable packaging solution because it generally requires less printed paperboard than a conventional folding carton.
A wrap-around sleever can form a tight cardboard sleeve around ready-meal trays and similar containers, reducing or eliminating the need for plastic shrink film and helping to reduce plastic waste.
Containers can be received from upstream equipment such as thermoformers, tray sealers, filling machines and sealing machines. The products are timed by an infeed system, flat sleeve blanks are placed onto or beneath the containers, and the sleeves are folded and sealed on the underside with hot-melt adhesive.
A wrap-around sleever can be integrated into a fully automatic packaging line or operated with manual product loading.
Packaging Machines for Carton Sleeve Packaging: Pros and Cons
A comparison of pre-glued sleevers, end-load sleeve cartoners and wrap-around sleevers.
Several types of packaging machines can be used to automate cardboard sleeve packaging:
- Pre-Glued Sleever: Usually applied to single-pack products that are end-loaded into pre-glued sleeve blanks.
- End-Load Sleeve Cartoner: A cost-effective option developed around the operating principle of an automatic cartoning machine.
- Wrap-Around Sleever: A purpose-built packaging machine that places and folds flat paperboard or cardboard sleeve blanks around containers and other products.
Single-Pack Applications
Standard wrap-around sleeving applications for individually packed food products.
ÉLITER wrap-around sleevers are available in standard configurations for single-pack applications, including ready-meal trays, individual dessert pots, pet-food trays, tubs, cups and other comparable containers.
Carton Sleeve Packaging for Multipacks
Customized grouping and feeding systems for different multipack formats.
Multipack applications generally require a customized grouping and infeed system according to the required pack configuration and the dimensions, shapes and handling characteristics of the individual products.
Each multipack project must therefore be evaluated individually by the ÉLITER engineering team.
What Are the Advantages of a Wrap-Around Sleever?
Tighter packaging, flat sleeve blanks and higher production speeds.
Several types of packaging machinery can be used for cardboard sleeve packaging. A wrap-around sleever works with flat sleeve blanks, which can be stored efficiently and formed directly around the product during the packaging process.
Compared with sleeve packaging automated by re-glued sleevers, a wrap-around sleever generally produces a tighter-fitting package and can operate at higher production speeds.
I Cannot Afford a Wrap-Around Sleever. What Is the Alternative?
A more budget-friendly option for projects with lower speed and packaging requirements.
A wrap-around sleever is an advanced packaging machine designed for demanding production environments where temperature, humidity and potential exposure to water or other liquids must be considered. Its construction and operating requirements mean that it cannot normally be offered as a low-cost machine.
For projects without demanding requirements concerning production speed, packaging tightness or sealing method, ÉLITER can provide an C-50S Sleeve Cartoner or pre-glued sleeving machine at a more accessible budget.
