It is the first time in the company’s history that 10 billion closures have been produced in a 12 month period.
Located in Dunavarsány, Hungary, the plant specializes in the production of caps and closures for edible oils and beverages.
In line with UNITED CAPS ‘CLOSE TO YOU’ strategy to bring operations close to the customer where appropriate for exceptional customer service, the Dunavarsány plant is the company’s gateway to Eastern Europe.
It serves a number of well-known brands in that region, including the Polish brand Wielkopolski oil from Princes Group, one of Europe’s fastest growing food and drink groups.
UNITED CAPS is continuing to invest in the Hungarian plant, with a new manufacturing line already under construction.
United Caps CEO Benoit Henckes said: “We are very proud to have manufactured our 10 billionth closure, It is a major milestone that highlights the faith the market puts in United Caps. It’s a sign of reliability, a badge of honour.
“Our innovative DOUBLEFLOW closure was the 10 billionth closure. We don’t set out every year to make the most closures. But this year, we are proud that 10 billion times, we’ve set out and succeeded in making the best closures.”
United Caps celebrated this achievement with an event at its Dunavarsány plant, where the 10 billionth closure was manufactured. The event featured talks by CEO Henckes and the Dunavarsány Plant Director Szabolcs Szili.
Szili said: “We at the Dunavarsány plant are honoured to be recognized for producing the 10 billionth closure for UNITED CAPS.”
DOUBLEFLOW is a precision pouring instrument for edible oils. Enhancing the user’s edible oil experience, the ingenious DOUBLEFLOW pouring spout offers variety in pouring options and exceptional control thanks to its innovative droplet shape.
It’s lightweight and attractive with no compromise on spill-free performance, keeping the bottle dry and easy to handle while maintaining the quality of the contents throughout its shelf life.
A wide selection of colours and printing options are available, enhancing the opportunity for brands to really break through on the shelf.
Wielkopolski marketing director Menno Bax said: “This is a great innovation. At Wielkopolski, we are delighted to enhance our range with the new DOUBLEFLOW to make life easier for our consumers, and to help strengthen our brand proposition and the activation plans we have with the Wielkopolski brand in the Polish market.”
