Canning line for Heineken Vietnam

As a leading player in the domestic beer market, Heineken Vietnam was looking to significantly increase the beer production output of its Tien Giang site, located in the south of the country. And they needed to do it quickly. Long-term partner and expert in turnkey solutions for beer players, Gebo Cermex, supported this ambitious goal with a complete line project, featuring among other highly efficient and high-performing solutions the new Sidel filler, EvoFILL Can.

Gianmatteo Bigoli, Strategic Account Director for Heineken at Gebo Cermex, comments, "We ensure that a stable expert team is supporting the customer on all their projects in Vietnam to capitalise on customer proximity, to easily grab their requirements, and to quickly implement the right solution for them […]." Paul Bleijs, Supply Chain Director at Heineken Vietnam Brewery continues: "From line design through installation up to the commissioning phase, the Gebo Cermex team helped us take each step very quickly." This was instrumental in starting production seven days ahead of schedule. Their vertical start-up programme, including a dedicated training that was specifically developed for the Heineken team, reduces time-to-market by 40%, while securing ongoing efficiency of line operations.
