The plant will include fully automated production lines for Tricor's scalable innovations, such as Quick Bin and Quick Box. The plant will achieve a high level of automation. This will be achieved by Modern production facilities, fully automated transport systems, high-bay warehouse technology and process control technology<\/strong> can be achieved.<\/p>

The new plant will be built to high energy efficiency standards with the aim of minimising the need for heating in winter and cooling in summer. In addition, the power supply for the plant a 3.3 megawatt photovoltaic system<\/strong> integrated. \u201eBy investing in efficient and resource-saving production technologies, the new plant fits seamlessly into our sustainable strategy,\u201c says Klaus Wiblishauser, Chief Operations Officer at Tricor.<\/p>
