German Packaging Award for Settle Plate Changer

It was only just launched at Achema and has already won an award: the new Settle Plate Changer SPC 1000 from Syntegon has received the German Packaging Award in the packaging machines category.

For the fifth time in a row, the German Packaging Institute (Deutsches Verpackungsinstitut e.V.) has honored Syntegon with the German Packaging Award. This year, it went to the patented Settle Plate Changer (SPC) for automated viable monitoring in the aseptic filling process. With this innovative solution, which significantly minimizes contamination risks, Syntegon supports pharmaceutical manufacturers in complying with the latest Annex 1 guidelines.

The jury selected a total of 41 winners from almost 250 entries from 13 countries. In the packaging machines category, the Settle Plate Changer scooped one of the prestigious awards. “This prize shows that we understand the pharmaceutical industry and offer our customers exactly the solutions they need. This was also confirmed by the great interest shown at Achema,” says a delighted Muhammed Ali Turac, Project Manager Automation at Syntegon Service, who played a key role in the development of the SPC.
