Juniper Glass is a subsidiary of Consol Glass Africa.

MSK has delivered the complete cold end machinery to African container glass factory Juniper Glass in Debre Berhan, Ethiopia.

Juniper Glass is a subsidiary of glass packaging manufacturer Consol Glass Africa in Sub-Saharan Africa, with operations in South Africa, Kenya, and Nigeria.

MSK installed two bottle conveying lines from the lehrs to the palletising stations, two fully automated palletising systems called MSK Semitech, a shuttle car system for mobile pallet conveying as well as a fully automated pallet shrink packaging line MSK Multitech.

All modules at the plant are coordinated with each other as the complete system is controlled uniformly and standardised by the easy-to-operate visualisation software MSK EMSY 6.0.

In 2020, Juniper Glass placed a follow-up order at MSK for a new decorating line including bottle conveying system, fully automatic de-/palletizing system and pallet conveying technology.
