The company, based in Mönchengladbach, Germany, placed an order at drupa 2012 to expand its production equipment by adding two more Sitma packaging lines.
The move increases the firm’s film packaging capacity to 10 lines. The new lines are equipped with 18 feeders each and can be modularly expanded at any time to meet rising demand.
High demands are imposed on the collating and packaging systems in two respects: stable production at high speeds and selective collating to the smallest areas. The Sitma lines fulfil both criteria to customers’ satisfaction, said Bagel Direkt.
General manager Udo Bogner said: "Sitma has always provided us with ideal solutions for our needs. Thanks to our long and effective partnership, we decided to stay with this manufacturer for our expansion.
Italian company Sitma is represented in Germany by Arisma, based in Kelkheim, near Frankfurt.
