KIC Krones: consumables from one single source
Sustainedly maximised performance can be achieved in production operations only if all details interact to optimum effect. These include not only the machinery itself, but also the processing materials. KIC Krones is a can-do partner for labelling and packaging adhesives, cleaning agents, disinfectants and lubricants.
As a member of the Krones Group, KIC has since 1978 been developing and selling adhesives for labelling and packaging applications. To extend the product range, cleaning agents, disinfectants and lubricants have recently been added to the portfolio.
