Berwin has always considered investment as the key to future success in the rubber and PVC compounding market. Since the very early days of the company there has been a continuous refurbishment and replacement of equipment and the addition of new compounding mixers.

Over the previous five years there has been significant investment in each of the rubber mixing lines including new cooling equipment, new mill systems, refurbished mixer bodies, new batch off units and new bulk filler silos.

The high level of investment continues today and focuses on automation and improving the environment. Within the past 12 months there has been the installation of the following new equipment:

· New ‘state of the art’ multi-station fully automatic small powder weighing system utilising the latest “Smart Cart” technology

· New bulk handling systems on two of the rubber mixing lines

· New computer mixer control systems on two of the rubber mixing lines

· New batch off units and automatic ‘packer stacker’

· Improved vacuum dust extraction of bulk powders

The management team at Berwin understands the importance of continually improving production systems, mixers and down stream equipment to maintain their position as the No 1 in the compounding market.
