At its Clifton, New Jersey plant, Beecham Products sought a more efficient way to handle raw materials for Sucrets lozenge production. Serpentix conveyors were implemented to continuously move bulk ingredients between processing stages with minimal manual intervention. The system improved production flow, reduced labor handling, and ensured consistent delivery of materials, ultimately supporting higher output and product quality.
Replaced two cleated belt conveyors and three transfer points with one spiral conveyor
Gentle belt design cradled fragile lozenges, minimizing breakage and side loss
Easy-to-clean system without disassembly, supporting hygienic production and quick dry cycles
First-year savings of $10K+ just from reduced product loss
Faster cleanup and lower maintenance
Exceeded ROI projections (recouped in under 3 years)
Increased productivity and overall operational efficiency
Industry: Household Products / Food & Beverage
Location: Aiken, South Carolina
