Packaging and Palletising Technology

Leaves nothing to be desired ‒ Krones packaging technology

The diversity of the packaging world knows almost no limits.
With Krones, you have a partner at your side who has decades of experience with packaging diversity and who is happy to share it with you.
You benefit from sophisticated machine technology that also masters complex packaging solutions, as well as from our packaging consulting, if you wish.

For everyone who aims high ‒ Krones palletising technology

The selection of the right palletising system not only takes into account the required performance range and the type of packs to be processed.
The infeed height and the desired layer schemes as well as the space available also influence the selection of the palletising system.
In addition, packaging materials processing is often required.
Krones palletising technology definitely covers the entire range of requirements.
