Lightweight or Bouncy—We Keep It Under Control
From almonds and cereal to spices and chocolate chips, dry granular products require precise dosing and packaging to avoid waste and maintain speed. At Control GMC, we’ve developed intelligent cup and tub filling lines engineered specifically for lightweight, free-flowing, or bouncy products—ensuring clean fills and consistent weights at high speeds.
Whether you’re working with tubs, pails, or clamshell containers, our modular systems integrate linear or combination weighers, anti-bounce containment systems, compacting stations, and specialized closing heads to maintain efficiency without sacrificing accuracy.
Let’s build a better way to package your granular dry products together.

Discover how precision meets performance in granular dry products packaging
Specialized granular packaging solutions:
Container handling
- Multiple container denesters, adaptable to various formats including clamshells.
- Container elevators (for filling via auger fillers).
- Container vibrators to evenly spread product and reduce voids.
Specialized granular packaging solutions:
Precision Filling
Double linear weigh filler:
- Two scales control both bulk and dribble fill in parallel.
- Embedded scale platens and close vibrator outlets maximize speed and precision.
Specialized granular packaging solutions:
Combination scale integration:
- Includes a pneumatic containment system (“The Hat”) to guide the product directly into containers and avoid bounce-outs.
- An optional gate system acts as a catcher, holding product until an empty container is in place, improving throughput.
- Optional compacter to compress light products (like wrapped candy) post-filling.
Specialized granular packaging solutions:
Lidding and Sealing
- Air-removal closing heads ensure tamper-evident lids are securely and neatly pressed (concave).
- Automatic film sealing units (MAP-compatible).
- Compatible with HPP packaging standards.
Specialized granular packaging solutions:
Adapted Equipment
- Single- or multi-lane filling lines for cups, tubs, trays, and buckets.
- Integration with multi-scale (multihead) or auger fillers.
- Modular design allows customized configurations for small or large production.

Frequently asked questions about granular dry products packaging
Not sure which packaging solution is right for your granular dry products? These frequently asked questions will help you understand how our machines can fit your product and packaging needs.
Our modular filling lines are tailored to your specific product texture, format, and throughput needs. For free-flowing products like nuts or cereals, we often recommend our double linear weigh filler or an integrated combination scale line with containment and vibration modules.
Our lines can handle a variety of formats including tubs, cups, pails (with or without handles), and clamshell containers. We provide adaptable denesters and sealers for all these shapes.
