KHS pleased with 2014 results

KHS GmbH can look back on a very successful business year: in 2014 the manufacturer of filling and packaging systems for the beverage, food and non-food industries increased its sales by 5.8% to EUR 1.08 billion. This was chiefly thanks to the expansion of its service business which the company is continuing to build up this year. With many innovations KHS also cemented its position as one of the market and technology leaders in the last year.

Business was especially good in Europe, with the company generating 35.3% of sales on its home continent (previous year: 32.8%). Other regions throughout the world also helped to promote growth at KHS, with the Middle East and Africa making up a 15.7% share of total sales, Asia and Pacific accounting for 23.8% and USA and Latin America for 25.2%. The total order entry was still at a high level of about EUR 1.1 billion as of December 31, 2014.

KHS is expecting further growth with its future-oriented technologies in 2015.
