Fifth manufacturing facility in Spain opens for business

Lightweight Containers | The Guadalajara facility is state-of-the-art with the latest Lanfranchi blow moulding technology and equipment, as well as the latest automation and robotics technology. This facility will support the large customer base of KeyKeg and UniKeg in Spain, as well as the other parts of Southern and Central Europe.

Annemieke Hartman, Chief Commercial Officer, says: “In addition to producing the iconic KeyKeg in Spain, we launch this production facility with the introduction of the UniKeg A to the global market. The UniKeg A [also identified as the German Slider] has been missing from our UniKeg Sankey S & D range of products. Large volume customers are keenly awaiting its arrival in the market. To be able to facilitate this from our new Spanish home is a great result for producers across Europe.”

With the opening of the production line in Guadalajara, KeyKeg/UniKeg has a global presence of five production lines and ten warehouses. However, the company is also working to identify where to site additional lines elsewhere in Europe in order to keep up with demand and ensures it continues to offer customers the best possible service and flexibility.
