Tissue Packing Machine Guide: WIMACH Automated Packaging Solutions

Wenzhou Wimach Machinery Co., Ltd. (WIMACH) is a Chinese manufacturer specializing in packaging solutions for folded tissues, rolled tissues, and blister packaging applications. Its main products include tissue packing machines and integrated packaging lines. This article provides an evidence-based overview of WIMACH's tissue packing machinery, covering key models, packaging lines, and real‑world applications, to help tissue manufacturers make informed equipment decisions.

Problem Definition: Why Automate Tissue Packaging?

Manual or semi-automated tissue packaging creates bottlenecks in high‑volume production. Inconsistent wrap quality, high labor costs, and slow changeovers limit throughput. An automatic tissue packing machine addresses these issues by integrating feeding, wrapping, cartoning, case packing, and palletizing into a continuous flow. The global tissue paper packaging machines market was valued at USD 273.8 million in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 433.7 million by 2032 (Transparency Market Research). Automatic tissue packaging machines already held a dominant market share of 58.3% in 2025, driven by the shift toward unmanned data‑driven lines.

Industry Background: Automation Trends in Tissue Packaging

Asia Pacific is the largest regional market for tissue packaging machinery, capturing 42.6% of global revenue in 2025. Within the tissue converting sector, the cartoning machinery segment (applicable to facial tissues and napkins) is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.1%, reaching USD 8.7 billion by 2035. European buyers require compliance with the Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC) and the new EU Machinery Regulation (2023) focusing on cybersecurity. WIMACH’s machines are CE certified, meeting these regulatory demands.

Step‑by‑Step Breakdown: How a WIMACH Facial Tissue Line Works

1. Facial tissue packs are conveyed from the folding machine to the tissue cartoning machine (e.g., TC‑100 or TC‑300) for automatic box erection, product loading, and box sealing.
2. Sealed boxes then enter a box shrink wrapping machine (optional, part of the line) to apply a protective plastic film on individual boxes or bundles.
3. A handle taping machine attaches handles to boxes if required, simplifying retail display.
4. Finished boxes are grouped and loaded into shipping cartons by a case packer (top‑load or side‑load type, e.g., CP‑T60 or CP‑S50).
5. Cartons are conveyed to an automatic palletizer that stacks them neatly onto pallets (up to 10 cycles/min).
6. Finally, a stretch wrapping machine secures the pallet load for stable storage and transport.

All equipment operates in coordinated automatic mode with minimal manual intervention, enabling a continuous flow from box packing to finished pallet.
