The Hamburg logistics provider HOYER will be presenting itself at the “Fi Europe & Ni”, one of the most important trade fairs in the world for the food industry and manufacturers of food ingredients. The fair is being held from 29 November to 1 December 2011 at the Paris Nord Villepinte exhibition centre. HOYER will be presenting its complete range of logistic services for the international food industry.

In Hall 4, at Stand 4B36, the company is presenting different methods of efficient, economic and most importantly hygienic transport for liquid and bulk foods, as well as the use of flexible and robust logistics systems in the field of contract logistics. HOYER staff from all the different national and international service sectors will be in Paris, explaining the advantages to the food industry associated with tank containers and tankers, as well as Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) with a volume between 1,000 and 500 litres.

In the case of the IBC, the offer ranges from filling to complete fleet management – also of customer-owned units. Such full service allows logistic costs to be significantly reduced. IBCs are ideal for transporting and storing liquid products and therefore perfectly suited to the needs of the food industry. In addition, depending on the requirements of the products being carried, IBCs can be chilled, heated or fitted with special equipment (such as stirring units).

The HOYER Group’s extensive European network ensures optimum routing and therefore maximum efficiency. Virtually all liquid foods can be transported, including viscous and temperature-controlled products.

Cleaning can be carried out in modern facilities located throughout Germany and Europe, which offer a high throughput and of course separate lanes for food equipment. The SHEQ system (Safety, Health, Environment and Quality) implemented ensures that all agreed services are carried out by HOYER faultlessly and with the utmost care, minimising risks and optimising production costs.
