Food processing and packaging equipment manufacturer tna has opened a brand new, state-of-the-art Australian manufacturing site to support the global demand for its high-performance food packaging solutions
Located in the Melbourne suburb of Boronia, the new factory will allow tna to triple the manufacturing capacities for its cutting-edge equipment, including its flagship vertical form fill and seal (VFFS) packaging system, the tna robag®.
The new facility will house some of the latest manufacturing technology to ensure that tna maintains the high-quality build standards its equipment is known for. In addition, the new site will incorporate a brand new training and demonstration centre to provide customers and new staff with an opportunity to experience tna’s cutting-edge equipment in a live operational environment.
In combination with tna’s wide range of on-site and online training programmes, the new training facility will help customers improve workplace safety, reduce downtime, enhance operational efficiencies and maximise the lifespan and performance of their tna solution.
“tna’s growth has been incredible over the years,” commented Alf Taylor, managing director and co-founder of tna.
The opening of the new manufacturing site in Australia follows the opening of a food processing centre in the Netherlands, which is dedicated to tna’s new processing equipment including its range of fryers and freezers but also pre-processing equipment such as peelers, washers and dryers. This adds to recent openings of new and expanded offices and resource centres in Tokyo, Bangkok, Dubai, Moscow and Mexico.
