Success story - The packaging experts from Borgloon
Veiling BorgloonTogether with Bizerba, Veiling Borgloon is automating its internal packaging facilities - Borgloon, a friendly town of around 10,000 inhabitants in the Belgian province of Limburg, is home to Veiling Borgloon. The company exports fruit from the region, including apples, pears and a variety of different berries, and now employs more than 100 people. The company's packaging processes are as varied as the products themselves: berries are so delicate that employees have to lay them in trays by hand and check the weight with scales. As this is very labour-intensive, it makes automating the packaging process for less delicate products even more important.
