Asset Packaging Machines has proudly operated within Australia as a leading manufacturer of liquid filling machines and associated automated production lines for over 30 years.

At AUSPACK 2022, on Stand E002, Asset Packaging Machines will showcase and present the marketplace with its trademarked and bespoke Automated Production Management System.

This builds upon its existing machinery solutions and provides full control, access and data metrics. A customer’s business will have access to both live and remote contact of production machinery. Operators will find this simple to use, minimising change-over and cleaning issues. Production managers will be able to monitor and directly input to quality systems for standardised filling metrics with the enhancement of live bottom-line throughput production data.

Any machinery order placed during the trade show will receive a free upgrade from 12 months to three years manufacturer’s warranty.

The Asset Packaging team says it looks forward to meeting existing and potential customers at the stand during AUSPACK and discussing their specific business and production requirements, with a view to designing and delivering a production system suited specifically to their industry and filling needs.

Food & Drink Business

Ferrero has gained more ground in the US through its acquisition of WK Kellogg for $4.7 billion (US$3.1b). Since 2018, Ferrer has acquired Nestle's US chocolate business for $4.25 billion, Kellogg's cookies and fruit snacks unit for $2 billion, and ice cream company Wells Enterprises.

The Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (ACCC) says it won’t oppose Lactalis’ proposed acquisition of Fonterra’s consumer and food service businesses, if the bid goes ahead. While it would see two of the largest buyers of raw milk combine, the ACCC says it is “unlikely” to result in a lessening of competition.
