3-in-1 Multifunctional Beverage Production Line Turnkey Solution

Client Background

Based in Bangkok, Thailand, the client is a fast-growing local beverage enterprise specializing in natural bottled drinking water. Driven by the booming regional beverage market, the client planned to expand its product portfolio with fruit juice and herbal tea, and upgrade overall production capacity. However, its original single-function production lines suffered from low equipment utilization, long product changeover cycles and high labor costs, which failed to support its diversified development strategy.x

Key Challenges

1. Limited production versatility: The original lines only supported bottled water production, requiring separate capital investment for juice and herbal tea manufacturing.
2. Low operational efficiency: Product changeover took over 8 hours, leading to severe equipment idle time and low overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).
3. Lack of integrated technical support: The client had no experience in multi-category beverage process design, and demanded a one-stop service from formula process design to equipment operation training.
