Milky Mist has recently installed three high-speed SIG filling machines for aseptic carton packs at its manufacturing plant near Erode, Tamil Nadu. This strategic move will allow the company to expand its product range, increase its production capacity, and offer new packaging solutions to consumers in India.
The three SIG filling machines – SIG SmileSmall 24 Aseptic, SIG Midi 12 Aseptic, and SIG XSlim 12 Aseptic – will provide Milky Mist with maximum flexibility and speed in packaging its products. This will enable the company to offer its wide range of products in various packaging formats, volumes, and designs, meeting the diverse needs of its consumers.
Additionally, the installation will result in increased operational efficiency and cost savings for Milky Mist, as the packs can be combined with highly convenient opening solutions without complex setups.
In the words of Dr K. Rathnam, chief executive of Milky Mist Dairy: “With the help of sophisticated SIG filling technology, we will explore our packaging options to meet the diverse needs of our consumers. The flexibility offered by SIG in terms of formats, volumes, and products can help us speed up our processes and reduce costs. We are also expanding the beverage categories to cover all consumer needs from basic to specific. This will help increase our presence and gain significant market share.”
This emphasis on packaging and production efficiency aligns with the increasing consumer trends and demands for sustainable food and drink packaging and marketing, showcasing Milky Mist’s commitment to food and drink sustainability.
