MBF and Falasco Wines
Franco Falasco, President and Director of the Familia Falasco Group in Argentina, tells us about the collaboration with MBF.
Falasco Wines is the second most important group in the Argentinean wine industry which, with over 80 years of experience, is dedicated to the production, marketing and development of wines on the national and international market in over 40 countries. A reality supported by the active and careful collaboration of its more than 600 employees.
Bodegas Balbo, Bodega Los Haroldos, Falasco Wines and Chateau Subsonico belong to the Familia Falasco Group.
Franco Falasco says. "The company currently has two important operations and is investigating new possibilities for expansion and development in the valuable Valle de Uco, an area that in recent years has shown its highest vocation for the growth of the Argentinean viticulture project, in order to create its own space and identity there."
Thanks to experience and a great family tradition, Falasco Wines elaborates high quality wines that express the characteristics of the Argentine territory to the fullest.
The continuous growth of Falasco Wines led in 2017 to the need to include a new bottling line in their facility that would guarantee full respect for the product, the quality of the packaging to a particularly high production.
MBF with its FILLBLOCK monoblock proposed the right solution capable of combining in a single machine respect for the quality of the product, total protection from oxygen absorption, high efficiency in the different formats, both with cork and screw caps, allowing optimisation of every aspect of the process at the unusual speed, for the wine world, of 26,000 bottles per hour.
Today, Falasco Wines' recognised wines, vintage whites and reds, reserves carefully matured in barriques, transit under the watchful eye of its oenologists, from the ageing cellars to the bottle, with the serenity of guaranteeing the final consumer the highest quality.
Six years of continuous use of the machine has pleasantly surprised and confirmed to its users its high efficiency, reliability, reduced need for intervention, operational availability of the machine and reduced investment in spare parts.
All these characteristics are guaranteed by the precise and careful technology that MBF puts into practice in its bottling solutions, a technology with high added value that accentuates the profitability of the process.
MBF, responsible towards its customers and aware of the peculiarities of the Argentine market, created in 2021 its own operational headquarters in Mendoza, structured with a complete spare parts warehouse and qualified personnel trained in Italy at the parent company.
"We chose MBF because of the quality and technology of the equipment and the after-sales service."
