Albergio de Lima, executive director, Sabe Alimentos said: "We decided to opt for the filling technology from SIG Combibloc because we're impressed by the flexibility and efficiency of the system. And that's crucial in Brazil's very dynamic dairy industry. As a dairy company, we have to be able to react very flexibly to the requirements of the market, and at the same time we need to operate profitably.
"In these respects, we believe the filling technology from SIG Combibloc puts us in a very good position to keep production efficient, today and tomorrow. Using a single machine, we can fill a range of formats and volumes. And when it comes to product and decor too, with the filling machines from SIG Combibloc we have plenty of options".
