"Having everything under one roof was the deciding factor for us"

ASCO Kohlensäure AG spoke to Joakim Uveborn, Sales Manager at EuroMaskin AB.

The company offers industrial automation solutions from Europe’s leading manufacturers. EuroMaskin AB has purchased two ASCO A120P dry ice pelletisers (120 kg dry ice per hour) and one ASCO PBM500 pellet packaging machine for a customer in the food industry.

Why did you choose ASCO, and how did you hear about us?
What was unusual was that one of your competitors recommended that we get in touch with you. Mainly because you have pellet packaging machines and larger dry ice pelletisers in your range.

Can you tell us how the selection process went?
We compared two different solutions from a total of three different suppliers. We saw an advantage in purchasing the dry ice pelletisers and the pellet packaging machine from one and the same company. The overall quality was also good.

What were the challenges during the project?
The biggest challenge was finding a solution that would allow us to accommodate the entire dry ice production process within a very limited space. The temperature in the area was an issue and other technical aspects had to be taken into account.

Why did the end customer decide to set up their own dry ice production?
To minimise costs, secure their own production needs and reduce LCO2 emissions.

What are the end customer’s objectives and purpose?
They use the dry ice for logistics purposes to maintain the optimum temperature whilst transporting goods by lorry across Sweden.

How was the collaboration with ASCO?
It was a good collaboration. Good service and helpful contacts.
