With the commissioning of its third KHS canning line at the beginning of the year, beverage bottler RHODIUS from Burgbrohl in Germany considers itself very well equipped for the future. The filling line is state of the art, thus strengthening the innovative strength and competitiveness of the long-standing family business.
"Our customers not only benefit from an additional filling capacity of up to 99,000 cans per hour. In terms of quality, energy efficiency, and product and packaging variety, the new line also enables us to meet our customers' requirements even more individually," explains Sven Wustlich, head of the canning line at RHODIUS.
RHODIUS strengthens its own core competencies with new can filling line
With a customer base of almost 100 companies, RHODIUS Co-Packing knows how different the requirements and needs in can-filling can be. In order to meet these demands at all times, sufficient space was planned during the construction of the new canning line to add further components if required in the future. This may be necessary, for example, if new regulations have to be implemented or major customers express special individualization requirements for can-filling, for which additional components have to be connected. The new can-filling line can therefore be specifically adapted to the needs and developments of customers and enables comprehensive product and packaging diversity.
The value proposition comes first for RHODIUS
The contract-filling expert attaches great importance to ensuring that the highest quality standards apply in all areas of cooperation with customers. This performance promise already starts with the support by a personal contact person who is available to the customer for all issues arising and who is committed to the customer's interests, so that many long-standing partnerships already exist. An important element of this cooperation is delivery reliability, which customers supplying the food retail trade in particular must be able to rely on. The new can filling line not only creates additional capacity for this, but also sets new standards in terms of quality and process reliability. In addition, the plant meets the requirements in terms of climate-neutral filling.
The performance promise of the German company is based on the greatest possible transparency in all phases of production. For example, important planning and production data is proactively communicated to customers so that they are informed about the production date, the final production quantity, or the number of beverage can rejects. Here, too, customers benefit from the capabilities of the new can filler, because thanks to automatic inline measurement, all relevant parameters are continuously checked.
Alcoholic beverages can be processed directly at the mixer with the new canning line thanks to a separate module. This ensures consistently high beverage quality, as even minimal deviations are immediately detected and automatically corrected. Together with the company's own bonded warehouse and a large alcohol warehouse where 96% alcohol can be processed, this is particularly interesting for customers in the ready-to-drink sector.
"With our new can filling line, we are strengthening our position as a contract filler for beverage cans and at the same time creating many new opportunities for our customers. We look forward to continuing to demonstrate our value proposition in the future by working with brands large and small," summarizes Hannes Tack, managing partner of RHODIUS Mineralquellen.
