The HELL ENERGY company opened a new factory unit equipped with state-of-the-art technology at a solemn ceremony in the HELL industrial park in Szikszó. With the new unit, HELL's mega-factory now covers an area of 77.11 hectares (771,100 square meters), taking production activities to the next level. Thanks to the increased production capacity, it is possible to produce up to ten billion cans of drinks per year, including four billion cans and six billion filled finished products, i.e. up to 31 million aluminium cans per day, of which 18 million are filled. In addition, the new factory complex is now suitable for the production of 500 ml aluminium cans, which further expands the already wide range of products.
HELL's success story with the opening of a new production unit reached another milestone - this is the largest state-of-the-art mega-factory of a corporate group under the same ownership in the world, which produces and fills aluminium beverage cans in one location.
„It is a great honour and joy for me to open the gates of our new factory unit, which is the beginning of a new era where the production and the filling of aluminium beverage cans take place within the same building. This is the most advanced and efficient operating model in the industry, where competitiveness and sustainability are closely linked to environmental protection", said Barnabás Csereklye, the CEO of HELL ENERGY Hungary Ltd.
