The KHS Group confirmed its successful development from the previous year and increased its turnover once again. Total sales in the past year totalled \u20ac 1.18 billion.<\/p>\n

The operating result (EBT) increased significantly thanks to contributions from internal improvement programmes. Sales were boosted in particular by successful projects in Asia and Central America as well as strong demand for PET and can filling solutions. In the current financial year, the Group is aiming to lead the way with innovations at the world's leading trade fair drinktec<\/strong> in September. According to the company, the continuous development of resource-saving technologies and packaging solutions will play a decisive role.<\/p>\n

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Matthias Niemeyer<\/strong>, Chairman of the Management Board, sees the role of the Group as Innovation driver<\/strong> The focus in the industry is on the future: \u201eIn addition to the very satisfactory business with existing systems and in service, we now see ourselves in a broader position than a few years ago thanks to the successful market launches of our innovations.\u201c The service organisation has been expanded worldwide and consumables, for example, have once again been directly included in the KHS range. This added value, coupled with the reliable and highly efficient lines, has resulted in significant orders in all business areas. The growing demand affects the entire range of filling and packaging solutions from the systems supplier: from PET and cans to glass and kegs; almost all sectors from beer and soft drinks to water or sensitive beverages for hot filling.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n

\u201eThis shows that we are not only strong in one area, but also in the entire line business, where we have a very attractive portfolio thanks to a high degree of standardisation,\u201c emphasises Niemeyer.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Examples of this include the increasing demand for glass and can lines in the domestic German market, the successful implementation of PET block solutions in the USA, India and Indonesia and the sale of several high-performance hotfill PET lines to South America and Africa. Follow-up orders have already been received for many projects completed in 2016. This is a fact that KHS attributes above all to the consistent ongoing standardisation of its product portfolio and its high level of consulting expertise for all customer questions.<\/p>\n

Positive outlook for the current year<\/h2>\n

KHS aims to further increase its improved result. \u201eAbove all, we want to continue to impress with high-performance products and innovations that are geared towards the needs of our customers and are reliably utilised by them,\u201c explains Niemeyer. The systems supplier also emphasises its commitment to all stakeholders and will publish a new sustainability report this year.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The KHS Group confirmed its successful development from the previous year and increased its turnover once again.
