Like the rest of the line, it handles 375-mL-, 750-mL-, 1-L, and 1.75-L PET bottles in addition to 200-mL single-serve PET bottles in four-count paperboard carriers. This secondary packaging cell occupies minimal floor space.
Wayne responded with a WCE-HM Case Erector connected with a short 9-ft extension of conveyor to a SF-400EB/2 Enhanced Partition Inserter, which in turn is followed by a BCI-120 Carrier Erector/Inserter. The objective was a close-coupled secondary packaging cell with the machines in close proximity to each other in the interest of smooth production flow and manufacturing continuity combined with conservation of floor space. for the secondary packaging equipment that would be needed. For Line 5, which has turned out to be the workhorse of the plant, the firm contacted Wayne Automation Corp. So bottles arrive on pallets, they’re filled/labeled/capped, and then they’re placed into one-way secondary packaging that’s erected and filled on-site. Though the Lawrenceburg plant had previously been set up to receive glass bottles in re-shippers from a local glass plant, Proximo decided to modernize by shifting to bulk container shipment. The other category of products made on site are non-alcoholic margarita mixes. There it is either bottled as is or is used in margarita batch making and blending for ready-to-drink (RTD) alcoholic beverages. Though many, if not most, of the products bottled in Lawrenceburg contain tequila, all of it is shipped to the plant in bulk containers. The idea was to minimize the extent to which contract packaging needs to be relied on and start bottling and packaging in house for the U.S. In the last few years the firm has been setting up an equally impressive bottling operation in a former Seagrams packaging building in Lawrenceburg, IN, that it purchased in 2012. Proximo has the distribution rights for an impressive number of high-profile spirits brands, Jose Cuervo being perhaps the best known of the bunch. Proximo Spirits, with North American headquarters located in Jersey City, NJ, is owned by the Beckmann family, who owns the Cuervo brand portfolio and are sixth-generation descendants of the founding Cuervo family.
