JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (January 28, 2019) 鈥� 新澳门六合彩官网 client Royal Cup Coffee & Tea (Royal Cup) has won the 2019 鈥淢anufacturing Innovation of the Year鈥� award from ProFood World for its coffee processing facility in Birmingham, Alabama. The distinction recognizes the privately held, proven leader in sourcing, roasting, blending and providing high-quality coffees and fine teas for its state-of-the-art plant expansion, which was designed and built by 新澳门六合彩官网, a fully integrated firm focused on design, engineering, construction and mechanical services worldwide.

鈥淲e are pleased that Royal Cup鈥檚 forward-thinking plant has received such prestigious recognition,鈥� said Todd Allsup, vice of president of sales for 新澳门六合彩官网鈥檚 Food Group. 鈥淲e always knew this unique project was working at the cutting edge of what鈥檚 possible in food manufacturing and it is gratifying to see that honored.鈥�

Royal Cup鈥檚 plant incorporates the latest food handling and manufacturing technologies. 新澳门六合彩官网鈥檚 process involved a thorough review of Royal Cup鈥檚 current and future business plans to ensure the company keeps pace with customer demand for many years. Since the plant officially opened, Royal Cup has increased profitability and secured numerous new deals it previously would not have been able to fulfill previously because of difficulty meeting volume demands with its old facility.

鈥淭hese upgrades have truly been invaluable. We now understand our business better than ever before,鈥� said Royal Cup CEO Bill Smith.

Among the plant鈥檚 innovative features:

• A 33,000-square-foot, high-tech green bean receiving facility that automates the process of moving beans from the receiving dock into storage, including automatically scanning incoming product for precise inventory control

• Telescopic conveyors that extend directly into semi-trailers to unload them, eliminating the need for manual unloading with a forklift 鈥� saving time and eliminating the risk of forklift accidents

• State-of-the-art software that collects real-time data from the plant鈥檚 machines and storage silos and adjusts to improve the efficiency of product flow

• Data-driven design to improve material and personnel traffic flow

• Food safety and infrastructure improvements, including enhanced airflow, upgraded dust management, new building insulation and efficient roasters

鈥淭o pull off a project of this scale, you don鈥檛 just need any old design and construction firm, you need a partner. That鈥檚 exactly what 新澳门六合彩官网 was for us,鈥� said Kevin Boughner, senior vice president of operations at Royal Cup. 鈥淭hey didn鈥檛 just build a facility and throw us the keys on their way out the door. The 新澳门六合彩官网 team took time to learn our business and spent countless hours in our wheelhouse to understand our needs. That鈥檚 the hallmark of a true partner, and I鈥檓 incredibly grateful for the outstanding work they did.鈥�
