Our bottling plant

Our bottling plant

 

Coca-Cola HBC Austria operates a state-of-the-art production and logistics centre in Edelstal, Burgenland. The major part of beverages sold by Coca-Cola in Austria is manufactured locally. It is our objective to meet commercial demand by delivering the final products on time, in the right quantity and to high quality standards.


We produce and distribute carbonated and non-carbonated beverages from The Coca-Cola Company. On our eleven production lines we manufacture well-known brands such as Coca-Cola, Fanta and Sprite in various sizes and packages. Our products are available in PET or glass bottles, or cans. The popular Austrian mineral water Römerquelle with its varieties non-sparkling, mild, sparkling, Römerquelle Zitrone (a mild sparkling mineral water with a natural fruit aroma) as well as Römerquelle Emotion, our flavoured mineral water, are bottled in the same plant. Since 2003, the majority of Römerquelle is owned by Coca-Cola HBC Austria.

Rooted in the region

Since 2013, our production and logistics centre Edelstal operates on an area of 355,000m². Around 130 million euros have been invested since 2014 in one of the largest production centres of the Coca-Cola HBC Group (as of 2021).

Our bottling plant in Edelstal uses comprehensive state-of-the-art technology and is already working with Industry 4.0 standards in many areas.

Our fastest production line is the high-tech can line that went into operation in 2020. It fills up to approximately 90,000 cans per hour, or 25 cans per second. With the implementation of innovative packaging technologies such as the KeelClipTM line – a cardboard-based six-pack packaging – sustainable secondary packaging solutions are made possible.

Another cardboard-based outer packaging has been used for the 6 x 1.5 litre PET multipacks for soft drinks since autumn 2023. You can find more information about our sustainable packaging innovations here.
