Stand C70, FoodEx 2023, 24-26 April, NEC, Birmingham
In a bid to help start-up dairy, water, beer, beverage, spirit and wine producers take their operation to the next stage – without comprising product integrity – AVE UK is unveiling a range of entry-level processing, packaging and bottling equipment at FoodEx 2023 (stand C70). Part of the Omnia Technologies Group, AVE UK’s portfolio covers 13 leading brands. As well as large-scale full turnkey systems, it also offers UK customers a unique range of semi-automated solutions ideal for small to mid-range producers that combine the finest Italian heritage with today’s latest digital and sustainability innovations. From mini turnkey lines for processing beverages; semi-automatic wine filtration systems; 1,000 bottles-per-hour rinser/filler/cappers; and even mini dairies, start-ups will find a suite of automated and semi-automated solutions to help them ramp up production without busting their budget or affecting the quality of their finished product – all backed up by on-the-ground, 24/7 local support from AVE’s UK-based team of experienced engineers.
Maintaining product authenticity
“Making the leap from start-up, artisan or kitchen production can seem daunting,” says Steve Bradley, AVE UK’s Sales and Marketing Director. “Business owners often worry that the integrity or authenticity of their product will be impacted if they automate any of their processes; that the level of investment required will be too high and negate any profit margin; or that modern automated systems will be too complicated or cumbersome for them to operate. In fact, the opposite is true – our portfolio of bottling, packaging and processing solutions bring together authentic Italian production methods synonymous with quality and excellence in beverage and dairy making, with easy-to-use semi-automated innovation, at a competitive price point.”
