The manufacturer of brewery equipment in the medium-sized sector, BrauKon, who works with Camba Bavaria which also operates its own brewery, has joined forces with PakTech, the manufacturer of can carriers and MultiPack solutions, to commission the first pick-and-place machine of its kind in Germany.
With the current introduction of PakTech can carriers, the Bavaria-based company is demonstrating BrauKon GmbH shows how added value can be created through innovation. Because by using the can carrier BrauKon is the only European contract brewery in a position to offer a comprehensive range of outer packaging solutions - from planning, production and filling to application in large quantities.
The attractive and environmentally friendly PakTech can carriers also come in the new bottling plant of the in-house brewery for the Camba Bavaria brand. The black Camba cans filled there will soon be available with customised labels in selected beverage markets and specialist beverage wholesalers.
„For the introduction of our new can filling line and the refreshed appearance of our portfolio, we were looking for a leading partner for can carriers and pick-and-place machines. We are delighted to have found a partner in PakTech that offers a good price-performance ratio and supports our company values such as sustainability, customer-orientation and innovation. With the introduction of the PakTechCCA 120/180, we can now offer our customers a holistic contract brewing concept.“
Folkert Kupferer, Technical Manager at Camba Bavaria
The Head of Technology at the brewery adds: „PakTech can carriers are Made from 100 per cent recycled plastic, which is itself recyclable. PakTech therefore offers the ideal solution for secondary packaging for our Camba canned products.“
„We are delighted that our can carrier pick-and-place machine is being used in Europe for the first time. Our partnership with BrauKon is an important step towards introducing our sustainable solutions in Europe.“
