Technology
Continuous investment ensures that riha always remains one step ahead of even the cutting-edge of technology. Juice concentrates from selected growing regions throughout the world arrive at our plants and are made into non-alcoholic beverages. The concentrate is carefully processed to preserve the integrity of the product. Fully automatic filling lines pack the drinks and take them to fully automatic high-bay warehouses. The in-house laboratory performs continuous purity tests to ensure the products comply with first-class quality. riha places great emphasis on natural growing conditions with a minimum use of pesticides.
Figures from riha’s three German plants speak for themselves: Rinteln, Öhringen and Dodow have a total production area of more than 51,000 m2, with more than 49,000 m2 of covered storage and 86,500 m2 outside storage. The daily capacity in Rinteln, with 2.1 million boxes and 2.4 million bottles, is far ahead that of Öhringen (600,000 boxes, 500,000 bottles) and Dodow (700,000 boxes and 1.3 million bottles).
The company has been focusing on environmentally friendly technology for many years. Modern biological sewage treatment plants ensure environmentally friendly disposal of waste water from the bottle washing and production processes. The company is also consistently working towards the use of environmentally friendly energy sources. In Rinteln, for example, a large part of the energy is supplied by natural gas.
In an effort to preserve resources riha produces reusable glass bottles as well as PET recycling bottles.
Filling, cleaning and sewage treatment plants are ultra-modern and powerful. And in situations where long shipping distances make the use of returnable bottles inappropriate, cartons are the preferred packaging material. However, the company is going to great lengths to expand its PET filling capacity. riha is the market leader in the cold aseptic filling sector with PET containers.
