New bottle cleaning technology in practice

At the end of last year, the Dutch brewery Bavaria N. V. started using the prototype of a bottle cleaning machine which had been jointly developed by Krones and Bavaria Lieshout – the Lavatec KD 2005. With the new machine, it was hoped that the cleaned reusable glass bottles would leave the machine consistently sterile and ready to be filled with beverages, and that operating costs would be substantially reduced thanks to a simultaneous reduction in the consumption of energy, water and chemicals.
