Manual Tray Sealer

The Manual Tray Sealer is a compact MAP packaging machine used to seal food trays with film under controlled atmosphere conditions. It is commonly installed in food processing areas, supermarket backrooms, central kitchens, and small production units. The system supports vacuum, gas mixing, and heat sealing in a single workstation. Typical operation handles 1–6 trays per cycle with an average output of about 2 cycles per minute, making it suitable for controlled, small-batch packaging across the UAE, GCC, and wider Middle East and Africa markets.



This Manual Tray Sealer is designed to perform Modified Atmosphere Packaging by evacuating air from the tray, introducing a controlled gas mixture, and sealing the tray with film. The process helps slow oxidation and microbial activity, allowing food products to retain appearance and texture during storage and distribution.

In UAE food facilities, the machine is typically used in supermarket preparation areas, commissary kitchens, and small factories operating in Dubai and Sharjah, where flexibility and footprint matter. Tray dimensions are not fixed; tooling is produced according to the client’s tray profile, with a standard tray depth of 70 mm and support for 1 to 6 trays per cycle.

The unit integrates into manual workflows without conveyor dependency, allowing operators to load trays, initiate the cycle, and unload sealed packs efficiently. A PLC with touch screen interface enables control over vacuum time, gas filling, and sealing parameters. The system operates with an external air compressor and maintains stable performance under continuous daily use. Its stainless steel construction supports hygiene compliance in food-handling environments.

Frequently Asked Questions


In the UAE, Manual Tray Sealers are commonly used in supermarket prep areas, central kitchens, catering units, and small food factories. Facilities in Dubai and Sharjah often rely on this equipment where batch-controlled MAP packaging is required without investing in fully automated tray sealing lines.

The machine evacuates air from the tray, injects a controlled gas mixture, and seals the tray with film. This sequence allows operators to manage oxygen, nitrogen, and CO₂ ratios based on product type, which is essential for chilled food distribution across UAE and GCC supply chains.

Tray dimensions are not fixed. The Manual Tray Sealer is supplied with customized tooling based on client tray size and shape. Standard operation supports trays up to 70 mm depth and processes between 1 and 6 trays per cycle, depending on mold configuration.

The machine requires a three-phase electrical supply and an external air compressor. Gas supply lines are also needed for MAP operation. These requirements align with standard utility infrastructure in UAE food warehouses and processing facilities.

It is designed for continuous daily use in controlled production environments. With an output of about two cycles per minute, it supports steady packaging without excessive mechanical load, making it suitable for operations that prioritize consistency over high-speed throughput.

Routine maintenance includes cleaning sealing plates, inspecting tray molds, checking vacuum pump oil levels, and verifying gas line connections. In UAE food operations, daily surface cleaning and scheduled pump servicing help maintain sealing quality and hygiene compliance.
