staff. The result of this regular exchange
with Gernep also prompted
Butcombe to rebuild its labeler last
year, converting its existing three selfadhesive
labeling stations to double
reels. Now, two label reels are mounted
on each labeling station instead of one,
increasing production efficiency by
shortening changeover times. Miles
Hay recommends the German labeling
machine manufacturer's service: "Gernep's
service stands out compared to
its competitors. The team members are
immediately available for any requests
and work efficiently on solutions and
improvements."
As a result, the Butcombe Brewery successfully
bottled and labeled two million
liters of beer in 2021! It aims to
further increase its volume in the future.
Gernep asserts its prominence on
the international brewing scene by
contributing to Butcombe's and other
brewers' success stories. (pn)1

the labeling stations themselves. "The
machine's design facilitates new operators'
training," says Hay with conviction.
This means that staff turnover
can be compensated quickly, and
training times and costs are kept to a
minimum. Gernep also offers training
courses to teach employees how to operate
the machine on-site, if desired.
Soluta's simplicity in design also permits
operators to perform quick and
effective toolless changeovers. Bottle
and label changes are carried out
swiftly, keeping downtimes at a minimum,
which is particularly advantageous
for brewers with a broad product
portfolio like Butcombe's.
Regular maintenance increases
the service life
Machine breakdowns are probably the
worst thing that can happen during
operation. It is highly advisable to perform
routine maintenance to ensure
top performance and long service life.
That is why Butcombe relies on annual
maintenance by qualified Gernep
