Cartonplast group invests in three hubs
Cartonplast Group (CPL) is upgrading three of its hubs: in the company’s headquarters in Dietzenbach and in Essen (both Germany) and in Figueira da Foz (Portugal). The reusable-transport-packaging specialist uses innovative cleaning technologies for plastic layer pads. They are deployed in 20 countries to transport glass, cans and PET containers to filling plants in the beverage, food, pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries.
The approx. 3,000 sqm hall in Dietzenbach expands the existing work area for sorting, cleaning and reprocessing the reusable PLPs it provides on a rental basis. At the CPL site in Essen the focus was on refurbishing the external warehouse. After a fire in August 2018, operations were relocated to other CPL locations.
CPL Portugal has invested in a new wash line, the company’s most sophisticated in-line technology to date. It includes automatic X-Ray inspection and rejection systems located within the new purpose-built production area to complete a 4100 sqm service hub at Figueira da Foz. (mw)
