IMA DAIRY & FOOD names new majority owner, introduces aseptic competence center
The newly established laboratory is certified to work with microorganisms up to Risk Group II, and boasts comprehensive equipment for implementing various microbiological methods.
IMA DAIRY & FOOD, Leominster, Mass., announced its new majority owner as Thomas Becker.
Moving forward, the brands will act independently in the marketplace, and their individual market identities will be strengthened by offering additional solutions across a broader set of niches. For example, Hassia Verpackungsmaschinen GmbH will expand its portfolio to include high-speed filling and sealing machines for pre-formed cups and bottles from Hamba, and its range of stick pack machines will be complemented with non-aseptic execution equipment and sachet machines. Erca S.A.S., based in Les Ulis, France, added to its machine portfolio the rotary Gyro Cup filler and the newly developed Flex Cup filling and sealing machine for pre-formed cups and tubs.
