Fibre King has expanded its range of craft brewery packaging equipment with a PakTech Can Carrier Applicator and is the only Australian owned option available on the market.

“We are thrilled with its early success,” says James Windsor, CEO.

“We now have a complete end of line solution for craft breweries with a can carrier applicator, Little Packer case packer and our CMP Compact Modular Palletiser.

Features of the Fibre King can carrier applicator:

• Stainless steel frame and components

• Ultra-compact design

• 4 & 6 pack configurations

• Can apply PakTech and Biopak can holders

• 375ml to 500ml can heights

• Up to 8000 cans per hour (matching 5 cases/min of Little Packer Case Packer)
