Haver & Boecker focuses on Adams products for Powtech exhibition 04 February 2019
Germany: Haver & Boecker is focusing on its Adams packaging product line for the Powtech trade fair taking place in early April 2019 in Nuremberg. The company says that the system offers the clean packaging of powdery, bulk products into watertight polyethylene (PE) packaging. The closed packaging protects products from loss and secures the quality against environmental impacts.
"Manufacturers are producing and packaging where the raw materials are located, which often means in countries with special climatic conditions. The packaged products are also exposed to extreme environmental conditions during global transport. This is precisely why the packaging has to withstand these conditions and absolutely protect the product," said Robert Brüggemann, Business Unit Head at Haver Chemicals.
Haver & Boecker’s Machinery Division is exhibiting at Powtech with a sustainability and resource conservation focus along with the motto ‘perfect Flow for our blue planet."
