All around the company About us Press releases and news All messages Financial news Ad hoc disclosures Company news Products and solutions Career CSR 26. July 2018 Krones, the world’s leading manufacturer of filling and packaging technology, was able to offset the slight first-quarter decrease in revenue in the second quarter of 2018. Krones’ revenue in the first six months of 2018 was up 0.9% from the high prior-year figure, from €1,775.2 million to €1,790.8 million. 17. July 2018 The fact that Krones offers its clients everything from a single source is nothing new. But now the group even has a brewery of its own at its facility in Freising: the Steinecker Brew Center provides both clients and Krones itself with an option for collaborative brewing, conducting trials, and testing new technologies. 15. June 2018 The German Prize for Online Communication – #dpok for short – in bronze in the “Metal and Machines” category is an accolade for Krones’ new group-wide website concept. 02. May 2018 Two merge into one: by purchasing the remaining shares, Krones has taken over Till GmbH in its entirety. Under the name of Dekron, the group’s subsidiary is now synergising the entire technology portfolio for digital decoration technology.
