The Customer’s Challenge

The family owned German confectioner sells their product in over 23,000 locations such as bakeries and supermarkets. They sell high-quality gourmet products than are often fragile. A continual increase in orders highlighted a need for greater efficiency and improved ergonomics to optimise their workstations.

We can help you better manage the daily workload and make improvements on efficiencies by optimising your working processes. Our engineers use the latest technology and innovations to make ergonomic improvements. 
We believe that adopting strategies based on ergonomics will enhance workstations and the employee experience.

The Antalis Solution

An airbag system with a recovery tray was integrated into the packaging line optimising the working process. This installation resulted in the workstation being more convenient and comfortable for the employees to use.

Improved Ergonomic Packaging Process

To improve ergonomics for employees, an air cushion bag system with collecting container was integrated into the packing line. A vacuum lifter was also installed to the packing line to lift heavy packages from the line onto a nearby pallet.
