With this technology-driven partnership, Buhler is strengthening its position in the medium and top coffee market segments and thus offering the coffee processing industry new, targeted solutions for producing roasted and ground coffee.
With Buhler’s stake in Petroncini, the two companies are focusing their joint research and development resources on the development of novel, environmentally friendly coffee roasting systems and are contributing to sustainable coffee processing.
Customers thereby profit from innovative and integral solutions for the industrial production of roasted and ground coffee. In this effort, Buhler will act as a project management partner along the entire process chain – from handling, cleaning, and storage of the green coffee to roasting, blending, and grinding of the roasted coffee and packaging of the finished ground coffee.
In addition, Buhler is now the exclusive global partner for the sale of Petroncini products for industrial coffee processing. Dr Stefan Schenker has been appointed as the new head of the coffee market segment.
The two companies have agreed not to disclose the value or the share of the stake.
