The company
More than 30 years closing bags in Costa Rica
Seproma Almacén Técnico S.A. supplies, installs and maintains machinery to fill, sew, seal and palletize bags. We are the sole authorized Hamer-Fischbein representative in Costa Rica and we represent the industry's benchmark manufacturers, with our own workshop and spare parts in stock in Escazú.
What we do
We don't just sell machines: we solve how your bag gets closed
From a portable bag closer for a warehouse to an automatic bagging and palletizing line, the approach is the same: the equipment has to keep pace with your plant, with your bag and your product, for years. That is why we first study the product, the bag type and the daily output, and then recommend the equipment.
- Gross- and net-weight baggers, sewing systems, sewing heads, portable bag closers and sealers
- Bag conveyors, palletizers and stretch hooders in complete lines
- 100% polyester bag closing thread, needles, oil and crepe tape in stock
- Installation, start-up, operator training, maintenance and repair
Why Seproma
What backs your equipment after the purchase
Brands with a factory behind them
We represent manufacturers with decades in the market (Hamer-Fischbein from the United States, Newlong from Japan, Megatex (Yaohan) from Taiwan, JEM from the United States, TMI from Spain). We order spare parts direct from the factory and receive their technical support.
Own workshop
In Escazú we repair and adjust sewing heads and bag closers of every brand we represent: timing, thread tension, loopers, knives and wear parts.
Spare parts in stock
We keep in stock the parts that wear the most, including 100% of the spare parts for the Fischbein Model F portable bag closer, so your line does not wait for an international order.
Installation and training
We install the equipment on your line, set it up for your bag and your speed, and train your operators and technicians in its use and daily care.
The right thread
We supply the thread that Fischbein and Newlong recommend: 100% polyester, lubricated and knot-free. It is the component with the greatest influence on a bag closer's productivity.
Clear quote
We tell you what equipment you need and why, with delivery times, warranty and terms in writing. If an economy machine is enough for you, we tell you that too.

Equipment
Engineering and service by people you know by name
Seproma is a Costa Rican family company led by Pablo Azofeifa López, electromechanical engineer (ITCR), with a technical team that installs, repairs and trains on site. When you write to us, you hear back from someone who knows the equipment, not a call center.
