HIGHLIGHTS THE SPIRIT
The ProMach Proof Perfect filling
system for distilled spirits was one
of the many innovations seen at
Pack Expo Las Vegas last month.
“Distilleries want fillers that
are more sanitary and can be
effectively cleaned more quickly
during product changeovers. The
growing popularity of flavoured
spirits is driving this demand,
because distilleries have a larger
number of different products and
shorter production runs,” says
Paul Kearney, vice president of
sales at ProMach Filling Systems.
“ProMach is well-established in the
distilled spirits industry with our
cappers and labellers, and Federal
has thousands of fillers installed
in a wide variety of beverage
sectors. Now, we’ve leveraged our
experience in the dairy and juice

sanitary standards to enhance our
fillers for distilled spirits.”
Created specifically for distilleries,
Proof Perfect filling systems are
made with 316L stainless steel
and feature a dry-floor design,
which includes a fully-enclosed,
sloped-deck base. The systems

needs of small, artisan distillers to
the highest volume distilleries in
the most demanding production
environments.
