Tell us a bit about Evolution Bottling and Packaging Solutions Ltd
For nearly 20 years Evolution BPS have provided quality, innovative machinery to the bottling and food packaging sectors. Our customers are well known brands based all over the UK and Ireland, and we are proud to be trusted with their packaging machinery needs.
We work in partnership with a range of carefully selected manufacturers to offer the best possible technology for bottling and packaging lines. We can supply single machines to integrate with existing production lines, or we can deliver a full turnkey solution.
Our core portfolio comprises: MBF for rinsing, filling and capping machines. MBF are renowned experts in the management of delicate products such as wine and premium spirits through the filling process. In addition, the Evolution portfolio includes TMG for depalletisers, palletisers, case-packing machines and all end of line machinery; Robino & Galandrino for all capsuling and wire hooding machines; P.E. LABELLERS for labelling machines; and Logics & Controls’ highly advanced inspection systems for fill level, label, empty bottle and closure inspection. When bringing our expertise to the food, dairy and personal care sectors we propose a net weight filling solution from Serac.
The superior product range combined with the excellent customer service delivered by our team at Evolution facilitates our ability to meet a spectrum of customer needs whether an individual machine or a project managed full line solution.
