A smarter way to invest in your line

Low-cost finance can open the door but the right partner ensures the investment delivers.

  • Reduce downtime risk before it impacts production
  • Improve line reliability and operator confidence
  • Make capital decisions with clearer operational data
  • Turn investment into measurable performance gains
The Hidden Cost of Doing Nothing

Pushing equipment harder moves you faster into the wear-out phase - where downtime, maintenance costs and compliance risks increase

The Bathtub Curve
Unplanned downtime increases
Maintenance costs rise
Compliance risk grows
Line confidence declines
The Hidden Cost of the Wear-Out Phase
“…parts were becoming hard to get… and were starting to become less reliable .. We were averaging three minutes a shift per packing station of downtime which is an hour and a half of downtime over five days.”
Resetting the Curve to Unlock Capacity
“.. [With the Matthews upgrade] .. Downtime has been cut by two-thirds… which equates to 6,000 extra bottles per week that Ozpak can pack for clients”
- Jake Lloyd, Head of Wine Logistics, Ozpak
