Frequently Asked Questions

Why is there a cowbell hanging on the door?
For over 40 years we have been developing innovative monomaterial top- and side-load systems for complete secondary packaging lines of parenteral products such as vials, ampoules, syringes, pens and many more. Our Dividella solutions are produced in the beautiful Rheintal area in Grabs, in the east of Switzerland. Why don't you visit our team there? It’s like in the children's book Heidi: all around snow covered mountains, clear rivers and cows in green pastures wearing a cowbell. This is why each machine which is shipped to our customers, gets an original cowbell like this one. Come and discover our site in Switzerland!
Why are there bricks on the floor?
Flexibility is a key requirement in the pharmaceutical industry. This is why the next generation of our blister machines is different. Customers no longer make a selection from a predefined machine portfolio. Instead, they use a modular system to put together an appropriate solution in line with their individual needs, just like creating something out of building bricks. They get support doing this from our experts on the site in Schloß Holte near Bielefeld in Germany, who analyze which modules best fulfill the customers’ needs. As soon as the configuration has been determined, the machine is put together from pre-assembled modules.
What do you need a magnifying glass for?
Have you ever had a vaccination? If so, you can be sure that the liquid inside is free of particles and save to use, because after filling it is inspected in special machines. We at Körber provide world leading high-performance inspection machines. Do you want to know how it looks like on the shopfloor of our inspection experts?
