Ambarel is one of the leading Russian enterprises for the production of a wide range of grocery products in the premium and economy market segments. When the company’s management decided to market a new product line in a carton box, it was a question of expanding production and purchasing new packaging equipment.
Basis , being the leader of cartoners manufactoring in Eastern Europe, was selected as a supplier.
The Ambarel company produces more than 30 kinds of products weighing 600 g and 1000 g each. All types of grains can easily be packed into a carton box in using Basis-80 cartoner . However, there is a salt in the company’s assortment as well – a product with high abrasive properties, which, if it comes into frequent contact with metal parts of equipment can cause corrosion. In a view of this fact, a special version of the carton was developed – the whole system of trays which come into contact with the products is made of stainless steel.
The Lakome company produces a wide range of grocery which is grown on its own cultivated areas. The main direction of the company is production of oat flakes and mixtures of cereal, packed in a carton box.
In effort to constantly evolve, the company’s management is constantly looking for new opportunities to increase final product yield. When it became necessary to modernize outdated equipment, the choice fell on Basis , the only cartoner maker in Eastern Europe.
The installation of the new equipment allowed Lakome to pack the product in two different types of packs (450 g and 1000 g) on one Basis-60 cartoner. In addition, the machine could reach up to 60 packs/min speed . For comparison: old equipment is capable to reach up to 30 packs per minute only.
The compact and rectangular widespread pack provides wide opportunities for group or individual packing of various products. For example, cereals in cooking packages.

UNIQUE ADVANTAGES OF TECHNOLOGY:
The packaging parameters before and after the automation of the packaging process remained unchanged, as a result it became possible to pack 8 cooking bags per pack which is 30% less than the standard for this product.
