The Brief
The Five Points Brewing Co is a progressive brewery producing unfiltered and unpasteurised beers. Their aims were bringing canning in-house, full control over the process and UK based support.
Â
The Solution
Vigo supplied, installed and commissioned an American Beer Equipment (ABE) LinCanâ„¢ canning line, which fills at a rate of 60 cans per minute, and all associated conveyoring and pipework. The canning line includes a twist rinser, 7 head filling station, seamer, rinser, airblower and packing table. To minimise oxygen pickup there is a CO2 purge, a fob pulse and under-lid CO2 jet. An ink jet printer for date coding was also supplied.

The Result
‘We’re really happy with the canning line, it has been reliable and straightforward to use, and for the size and cost it has an impressive output.’ - Ed Mason, The Five Points Brewing Co
