REUSABLE packaging specialist Tosca has opened a new service centre in Ingolstadt, Germany.
The facility, equipped with solar panels and ‘advanced’ technology capabilities, is designed to support Germany’s largest retailers with ‘efficient, data-driven’ services.
The opening of the Ingolstadt site marks a significant expansion of Tosca’s footprint in Europe. With a total area of approximately 2,700m², the firm explained that the centre is positioned to cater to the growing demand for its reusable plastic products and pooling services in the region. With the addition of the Ingolstadt centre, Tosca currently operates 43 service centres across Europe.
Driven by the increasing business in plastic half pallet operations, Tosca added that the decision to establish the Ingolstadt centre underscores the firm’s dedication to supporting its downstream customers across Europe.
“We’re excited to unveil our newest service centre in Ingolstadt, a testament to our ongoing commitment to delivering exceptional service and value to our customers,” said Marco Gonzalez, MD for Central Europe at Tosca. “This expansion highlights our ability to adapt quickly to market demands, as well as our dedication to growth in reusable plastic packaging solutions across Europe.”
Tosca achieved a lead time of just four months from the start of site search to operational readiness. Ingolstadt is equipped with technologies including RFID gates, scanning equipment, and automation systems.
Later this summer, the business will install a fully automated wash line at the site, including a conveyor reader on to automatically update asset status and monitor performance.
