New strategy for Kosme
Krones AG, Neutraubling, Germany has rejuvenated its subsidiary Kosme, which produces machines and lines for the lower output range. The new organisation relates solely to Kosme’s facility in Roverbella, Italy.
In order to secure the plant’s future on a sustainably viable financial basis, the product portfolio has had to be altered and the capacities correspondingly right sized. The company will now be concentrating on its core competences in the fields of filling and labelling technologies. The operations for producing packing and palletising kits have been discontinued.
However, the company will continue to offer complete lines. These lines are supplemented at need by products from appropriately qualified suppliers, who meet the requirements for optimum quality.
