Early last year, Delta Food revealed the ambitious multi-million US dollars can factory project which was slated to operate by November 2016. Now, two months before its first anniversary, the can line proved to be the smartest investment Delta has ever undertaken.
The making of the can factory was a solution to one of the perennial problems nagging every manufacturing company; that of the timely delivery of packaging materials outsourced from third party suppliers. To cut the customer’s waiting period from production to delivery of finished goods, the directors considered it best to do backward integration by bringing the can packaging practically to the doorstep of the production line.
Can Production Lines
The can factory started with a state-of-the-art coil-cutting machine and tandem coating production lines which are two coater machines in one, and the oven. The coater machines are the first of its kind in the UAE.
High-speed lines of body-making machines, end-making, and 2-pc can machine are complemented with equally speedy printers that can produce an average of 30 million cans per month.
