Complete 6,000 pcs/h Paper Egg Tray Production Line for a Brazilian Poultry Group | Wanyou Case Study

Case Study: 6,000 pcs/h Paper Egg Tray Production Line for a Brazilian Poultry Group

Project Background

Brazil is one of the world's largest egg producers, and packaging supply is a constant pressure point for large poultry groups. A poultry customer based in Brazil, operating three laying farms with more than 1.2 million hens, relied on imported molded pulp trays. Rising logistics costs and recurring delivery delays pushed them to seek an in-house, self-sufficient packaging solution.

The Challenge

• Unstable supply of egg trays from distant suppliers, with 30-45 day lead times.
• High packaging cost per thousand eggs, squeezing margins in a price-sensitive market.
• Need for a solution that could recycle local waste paper and meet strict quality standards.

Our Solution

Jinan Wanyou Packing Machinery Factory, a manufacturer established in 2003, supplied a complete turnkey solution built around the ZSJ-6000 paper egg tray production line, together with an egg carton making machine and a paper pulp molding system. The line runs on PLC computer control and features Germany-made key parts, ensuring precise forming and stable output.

Key Technical Highlights

Service & Support

Beyond the machine itself, Wanyou delivered a full service package: pre-shipment installation and debugging, overseas engineer supervision on request, on-site operator training, and a two-year warranty. The complete production line was shipped in 40HQ containers within the agreed 90 working days, and our engineers remained available for remote troubleshooting after commissioning.

The multi-section system - pulping, forming, drying and automatic stacking - was commissioned stage by stage, and Brazilian operators were trained on PLC settings, mold changeover and preventive maintenance. This hands-on approach minimized startup risks and helped the plant reach stable 24-hour operation within the first month.

Results

• Packaging cost per thousand eggs reduced by approximately 40%.
• Self-sufficient tray supply eliminated import lead times.
• More than 10,000 kg of local waste paper recycled every month.
• Full return on investment achieved within 18 months of operation.
