It also makes machinery that puts corks in bottles. The company manufactures high-speed stretch blow-molding machines that make plastic containers. In addition, KRONES provides production-line planning services and line-data storage software. Most of the company's business comes from the beverage industry, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. European customers account for more than half of sales.
