PPB | Innovative Prima system to clean and Polish Bottles

Summary
Sparkling wine produced by the Champenoise method implies the use of long periods of storage of bottles. The bottles, due to long-time storage, are prone to defacements like iridescence, lime scales, or rust. These bottle defects do not affect the valuable content, but as a luxury product, the bottle needs to be pristine in its presentation. Today this tedious bottle cleaning and polishing work are done by hand, and when cannot be manually polished, this one becomes waste, out of the quantity of water and time consumed. Moët Chandon approached us to develop machinery to develop such work to avoid such work.
PRIMA develops new machinery in the market for the successful polishing of such a bottle in dry and/or wet methods with the use of little water. With this machinery (PPB), we see a clear competitive benefit for the client company as it we calculate it has the potential to generate 2.1M€ savings on the average large producer (500,000b/y) and 1.05M€ for medium-small producers.
PPB is a logical evolution for PRIMA - a manufacturing group in the fields of automotive, lighting, and labeling - to open a new business category and a new market positioning. Our expertise in manufacturing labeling machinery for bottles (www.primalabelling.it) will be used for a successful PPB manufacturing. Thus, we expect that PRIMA will lead to a new production line with a strong business capacity of 11M€ accumulated profit in 5 years of exploitation and the creation of 14 new working positions.
