KHS, the Dortmund-based manufacturer of filling and packaging systems, has expanded its 24-hour customer support. Contact persons for technical support are now available around the clock at the so-called „24/7 Service HelpDesk“.

Introduced by KHS a three-tier support system for customers all over the world. The aim of the new structure is to largely avoid long production losses and downtimes for KHS customers.

Support requests of customers are categorised in the first step. Once the problem has been identified, the enquiry is forwarded to the right contact person. Spare parts enquiries are processed technically and commercially.
