“Direct heating is gentler on my product thanks to its short heat-holding phase, but it uses considerably more energy than indirect heating.”

A common preconception, but it doesn’t apply to the direct heating process from Krones. That’s because Krones’ process technology team has developed an innovative, holistic energy concept for the VarioAsept D that makes it possible to capture and intelligently reuse surplus thermal energy from direct heating – and significantly reduce energy consumption.
