Jenton’s first in-house design (in 1992) for automatic packaging equipment was the CB600 Hinged Lid Carton collation, stacking and banding systems for the demanding tobacco industry which were sold in UK and America and we are proud that, in 2022, well over half Jenton Group’s sales are from products we design and make ourselves.
In 2004 Jenton acquired the Ariana brand which enabled design-led manufacturing for the food industry. Ariana has innovated many solutions since the 1980s which are now found all over the meat and fresh food industry. The first cut pad padding machines for thermoformers, (‘Autopad’) the first CAP/MAP seal testers, the first mince portioners and the first retracting belt mince loaders being some good examples.
Jenton Ariana specialises in the design and manufacture of ‘clever conveyors’ or sophisticated control led pieces of automation equipment for high speed food lines.
Our products include convergers (sometimes called in-liners or singleizers), a wide range of product stackers (sometimes combined with labellers), pad placing machines, divergers, seal testers and conveyor line control systems.
Ariana OEM convergers can be found all around the world with other companies’ names on and we love working on developing OEM solutions for companies whose main ‘hero’ products take priority within their own design facilities.
For over 50 years the Jenton name has signalled innovative automation equipment for food, medical, print and packaging industries. We manufacture over half of the products we sell and specialise in custom engineered solutions.
