The global high vacuum filling machine market size was USD XX Bn in 2022 and is likely to reach USD XX Bn by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of XX% during 2023–2031. Rising adoption of system automation due to technological advancements benefitting the manufacturers is expected to drive the market.
A vacuum filling machine is an automated system set up that helps manufacturers to fill their viscous products in the designated packaging. The purpose of this equipment is to fill the number of product containers with pre-decided quantities and optimum accuracy. High vacuum filler machines create a vacuum by removing the air inside the container to ensure the long-term preservation of the quality of the product.
Products of different viscosities such as water, oil, liquor, shampoo, liquid soap & detergents, sauces, non-alcoholic & alcoholic beverages, liquid medicines, vaccines, and pharmaceutical drugs are filled into containers at the factories before secondary liquid packaging with the help of high vacuum filling machines.
Vacuum machines draw the viscous product from the tank, which is carried to the individual dispenser cylinder. When aligned and inserted in the product packaging container, the vacuum pump pulls out complete air inside the packaging and creates a vacuum. The dispenser nozzle then fills the product packaging up to the pre-set levels.
Vacuum-filling machines are designed based on different mechanisms. Some machines fill the liquids depending on the pressure inside the container, which is known as a pressure liquid filling mechanism. It works as a smart system, even if the size of the container is changed, the machine dispenses the right amount of liquid.
Digitally operated high vacuum filling machines are programmed with a superior automated mechanism. This type of system requires certain manual inputs such as targeted output numbers. With the help of a digital interface, multiple functions of the digital fillers become accessible at once. This system automates the process, reduces human errors, and ensures quality output.
The high vacuum filling machines require minimum human indulgence as it is automated and well-programmed. When there is no bottle or container to be filled on the belt, the machine stops dispensing the product to prevent any product wastage. It alarms when there are no more packaging containers on the conveyer belt for a prolonged duration and notifies when it finds any errors.
At the outset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the market grew rapidly due to an upsurge in demand for ampoule-filling machines from the pharmaceutical sector. Newly developed COVID-19 vaccines required premium packaging while transportation. Therefore, ampoules are majorly used by pharmaceuticals to fill the drugs and dosage to prevent contamination. Due to the large-scale production of vaccines and other supplementary drugs & medicines, the demand for vacuum packaging has increased during the pandemic.
Increasing demand for high-paced automated systems is a major factor driving the market during the projected period. Automated systems provide ultimate accuracy and minimize human errors while ensuring the desired output within the given time.
Enhanced operational efficiency and a user-friendly interface of the high vacuum filling machines encouraged manufacturers to adopt these machines. Vacuum filling machines operate at a fast pace and fill the maximum number of product containers at the same time. In case of any technical glitch, if the container remains improperly filled, the system detects, disapproves, and discards the product on its own.
High vacuum filling machines require a consistent flow of electricity and a battery backup. In case of an uncertain power cut, electric fluctuations, or the lack of battery backup, some vacuum-filling machines may not yield the desired output.
High initial cost of installation, repair, and maintenance hinders market growth to a certain limit. The high cost of filling machines makes it difficult to purchase in bulk for startups a business. However, repair and maintenance of the complex system take a longer time, especially when the software needs to be debugged and fixed or if the mechanical issues are totally new.

Based on product type, the high vacuum filling machine market is divided into automatic high vacuum filling machines and semi-automatic high vacuum filling machines. The automatic high vacuum machines segment is expected to expand at a significant growth rate during the projection period, due to the rising demand for automation in the packaging process.
The automatic high vacuum filling machine requires initial manual software to operate on its own. It has an inbuilt conveyor belt that moves the product from one end to another, which fills around 16 containers at the same time and prepares them for further packaging such as for fixing the lids, secondary sealing, and for labeling. The software-operated mechanism reduces the requirement for a large workforce.
On the basis of end-user, the market is segregated into pharmaceuticals, personal care & cosmetics, food & beverage, and household care. The food & beverage segment is projected to register a considerable CAGR during the forecast period, owing to the growing requirement to extend the shelf life of products. The use of vacuum fillers in food and beverages improves the quality and appearance of the product by reducing oxidation. Carbonated beverages require filling machines to infuse carbon-di-oxide (CO2) in the bottles. Moreover, it reduces product wastage during the packaging process.
In terms of region, the global high vacuum filling machine market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. Asia Pacific is expected to dominate the market during the projection period, owing to the rapid expansion of food & beverages and personal care & cosmetic industries. The regional market growth is further attributed to the increasing demand for automation in the manufacturing and packaging process.
