BREITNER Your packaging machine manufacturer for filling liquids
The company
The packaging of liquid products in solid containers is our profession. We build single machines as well as complete packaging lines: Bottle unscramblers, filling machines and capping machines.
Our customers are medium-sized businesses, just as our own company is medium-sized. Now in the third generation, we have been manufacturing our machines in Schwäbisch Hall since 1960 with a team of about 100 employees.
Our technology and our core competence
We emphasise the importance of robust technology in our machines and systems. They will really bear up under the stresses and strains of everyday production over many millions of bottles and canisters, over decades.
The state-of-the-art and innovative software of our machine controls has intelligent algorithms for the filling process and stable process management in everyday operation. With their high precision in filling, our machines achieve a particularly high output rate. Our capping machines are exceptionally fast when inserting pump closures, for example.
We accompany our customers throughout the entire life cycle of their packaging machines
BREITNER machines last for decades. We accompany our customers over the years: from consulting on the selection of the most suitable machine to continuous operation with annual maintenance. Remote maintenance, spare parts supply even after decades are a matter of course with us.
Family tradition
The first filling machines of the great-grandfather date back to the 1920s. Today’s company was founded in 1961 – by the grandfather of the current managing directors. The company has always been in family hands.
Family-run, medium-sized companies are characterised by continuity and reliability; it is the long-term strategy that takes centre stage. This is also our philosophy as management and thus as a company. BREITNER – the specialist for filling liquids.
Our team
Today, we are a team of about 100 employees. Fluctuation is written in small letters at our company; competence, team spirit, tradition and cohesion are great. We do training and look forward to integrating these young, new employees into our team in the long term.
A glance into the future as a packaging machine manufacturer
In mid-2021 the time had finally come, we moved into our new premises. Our employees are now at home in a highly modern and energy-efficient building in Schwäbisch Hall. Our new production concept has already proven itself in terms of quality standards.
We look forward to welcoming you to our new company headquarters!
Frequently asked questions Our answers
For which industries are our machines suitable?
Our bottle unscrambler, filling and closing machines are suitable for the food, chemical, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries. We provide our customers in these sectors with tailor-made solutions.
What specific types of machines do we offer?
- Bottle unscrambler that cover high output rates, blow out bottles with ionised air and can align or rotate the bottles correctly.
- Filling machines that can use the following dosing methods: inductive flow meters, mass flow meters or piston dosing.
- Closing machines that can close small bottles as well as large bottles. They can process normal closures as well as complex press-on closures or spray guns.
- Monoblock systems that perform filling and capping in a circular process on a frame. High output rates can be achieved with these systems.
- Combination machines, where filling and capping are performed in a linear process on a frame. The advantage lies in the small footprint of the combined system.
What are the costs involved in purchasing a bottle unscrambler, a filling machine or a closing machine?
That depends on the customer’s requirements for the machine or machines in question. There is no blanket answer to this question. The machines are designed for higher output and a continuous, long-lasting production process. The TCO (total cost of ownership) is very good in the long term (10–20 years). The initial investment is not insignificant, but the ongoing production costs are low.
What delivery time can I expect?
Depending on the scope of the project, between 6 and 12 months. Occasionally, we have prefabricated BREITNER machines that can be sold with a significantly shorter delivery time.
