Helping food and drink companies to survive and thrive is bread and butter to CenFRA Ltd.

This is the message that Europe’s only independent centre for robotics and automation to the food and beverage industry will be spreading at this year’s PPMA show.

During the three-day event, CenFRA will be showcasing diverse examples of current automation, which are already offering companies significant benefits to their everyday operations. CenFRA’s team of specialist engineers will also be on hand to discuss what support and guidance the company can offer and explain and advise on affordable robotic and automation solutions and the appreciable rewards to be gained from investing in new technology.

Since making its exhibition premier at last year’s PPMA show and launching itself onto the national platform, CenFRA has achieved a multitude of successes, which have established the company within the food and beverage industry as the helping hand for automation advice and guidance and, where necessary, developing bespoke and innovative solutions.

CenFRA’s commercial director David Cheeseman said: “CenFRA has come a long way since its formation and PPMA provides the ideal platform for us to highlight our achievements, announce our future plans and, most importantly, deliver our message to the food industry.

“We want the industry to take advantage of the specialist service that CenFRA offers and to help them recognise the long-term benefits that automation and robotics can bring. The capabilities of new technological developments are endless and our aim is to help food and drink companies across the UK learn how they can become more competitive, maximise productivity and increase profitability.”

As a single point of contact and completely independent of all manufacturers and suppliers, CenFRA provides unbiased, professional advice to help companies find the right solution for them. The company is not focused on selling machinery but instead is committed to providing the bridge in automation knowledge and expertise between equipment producer and buyer.
