Transfer system and product recovery
Customer
Maison Peguet are a well-known, family-run bottling company located in Liergues in the heart of the Beaujolais wine-making region (France).
With a long tradition of producing quality wines, the company combines modern techniques with deep respect for the product and its environment.
Project
Maison Peguet needed to modernise and automate their wine transfer process to adapt to the growth of their business and to ensure higher operating efficiency.
The solution had to enable the transfer of the product from tanks or directly from tanker trucks, maintaining product losses to a minimum during the process.
In addition, it had to integrate an existing CIP system to ensure effective cleaning of pipes between uses.
“The product recovery system by INOXPA minimises wine loss and prevents the risk of cross-contamination between batches.”
