Holmach technology solutions to take centre stage at PPMA

HOLMACH has announced it will be demonstrating how manufacturers can maximise productivity while at the same time minimise unit costs and meet sustainability targets at this year’s PPMA Show.

The company will be showcasing the capabilities of its technology solutions for applications including personal care, homecare, food and industrial.

Roboqbo’s universal processing system is described as a ‘versatile and powerful’ tool that can be used to create a variety of products from lipsticks and mascaras to sauces, ice cream and pet food. The solution can cook, cool, concentrate, knead, refine, cut, mix, homogenise and pulverise in one single unit. The system’s vacuum function helps to prevent oxidation.

Perfinox’s scraped surface heat exchanger can be utilised for the heating and cooling of ingredients for the manufacture of products, including toothpaste, shampoo, pasta sauce and soup. Holmach explained that the ‘rapid’ inline heating and cooling capabilities of the Perfitherm demonstrate a time saving, whilst preserving the active ingredients and maintaining the texture and taste. Built in CIP and SIP solutions allow for the fast changeover of lines, enabling manufacturers to use Perfinox’s technology for multiple applications.

Boasting customers including Fabulosa, Astonish, and Westland Horticulture, Mengibar specialise in difficult to fill solutions. From small pharmaceuticals that require multiple processes and components with filling, plugging and over capping; to spray cooking oils; hot filling; bag-on-valve for aerosols; and the handling of packaging using pucks and bottle orienteers.

With solutions that are adaptable to a range of container and closure types, Mengibar’s technology can be synchronised with stand-alone capping and filling machines or constructed as a complete filling and capping monoblock with automatic closure sorting and feeding.
