This case study explains the United Petfood palletiser integration at the Hoogeveen facility. United Petfood Nederland ALU B.V. faced rising demand for premium pet food. Therefore, they chose a second production line with a Qimarox Highrunner palletiser. Westover handled integration. By reusing proven modules, the solution remained compact and cost-efficient. Moreover, there was no interruption of the existing line.
United Petfood Nederland ALU B.V. produces high-quality cat and dog food. In 2007, they installed a Qimarox palletiser in a crossrunner layout. This design allowed future expansion. Over time, demand grew steadily. Consequently, planning for a second line became urgent. United Petfood re-evaluated all suppliers. They needed a palletiser that matched or exceeded existing throughput. They also required adaptability for new product formats.
