The company also announced the creation of an Aspectic Competence Center
IMA Dairy & Food, a Ranstadt, Germany-based company which comprises the long-established brands Gasti, Hamba, Hassia and Erca, has a new majority owner: Thomas Becker. In a press conference, Becker presented his strategy for the company’s realignment. According to Becker, the brands will act independently in the marketplace, and their individual market identities will be strengthened by offering additional solutions across a broader set of niches.
For example, Hassia Verpackungsmaschinen GmbH will expand its portfolio to include high-speed filling and sealing machines for pre-formed cups and bottles, and its range of stick pack machines will be complemented with non-aseptic execution equipment and sachet machines. Meanwhile, IMA said Erca S.A.S. added the rotary Gyro Cup filler and the newly developed Flex Cup filling and sealing machine for pre-formed cups and tubs to its machine portfolio.
