Beverage Manufacturing

We have a state of the art contract beverage bottling facility for soft or alcoholic contract manufacturing, specifically deigned to help startup beverage companies and SME’s develop and launch products with reasonable minimum volumes. We can do still products in spirit bottles for non-alcoholic spirits, and carbonated aluminium canning for soft drinks or alcoholic drinks. With our technical knowledge of beverages, ingredients, mixing and contract manufacturing spanning over 60 years, there is a reason we are seen as one of the leaders across Europe at what we do.

We are SALSA Food accredited, meaning that products are made under stringent processes and your finished products can be sold into any major retailer.

On the aluminium canning side, we can do small scale pilot tests at 20 litres to give you samples for consumer testing, our automated canning line can run at 4,500CPH, typically starting at 10,000 cans per recipe. We can handle 250ml slim cans, 330ml standard cans and 330ml sleek cans at the moment, with the ability to do other can sizes as volume dictates. We do labelling of cans on site, cans can be sent for shrink sleeving or you can send in your own digitally printed or ink printed cans for us to fill. We have invested in state of the art equipment, from the de-palletisation of cans, counter pressure filling, tunnel pasteurisation and mixing technology. We then pack these off into either 4 packs (which goes into a 24 pack box), 12’s or 24’s boxes.

We are also specialist’s at non-alcoholic spirit contract bottling, and we offer MOQ’s of 2,500 litres for commercial runs on our spirit line. With best in class batching processes, including an inline high shear mixer for hard to mix ingredients like powders, we are at the forefront of non-alc spirit development and bottling.

It’s designed to mimic the larger scale soft drink manufacturing process’s, and allow’s our clients to do small scale bottling in the UK. We have invested in machinery that can handle most sizes of glass bottles from 50ml – 700ml using ROPP closures or GPI caps. The beverage manufacturing capabilities are all done on semi automatic bottling lines, designed to be extremely flexible in the types of bottles we can handle, with automatic labelling and capping.

We can label front, back and neck. We can also do tamper evident tax strips or PVC shrinks. We then box into 6, 12, 24 or 96.

We can bottle into glass as little as 250 litres so you can do consumer testing, shelf life testing or nutritional analysis, and with the process’s mimicking full scale production, allows the testing of recipes and how they react to varying temperatures or bottling processes.

Whether you are a startup looking for contract bottling or an established player looking to test your recipes before full production, we can help get your drink manufactured in a professional environment with all quality controls documented. We do alcoholic or soft drinks, but not dairy or mid PH products.
