Project Spotlight: Automation at Egmont Honey
HEL Rimu has revolutionised operations at Egmont Honey’s processing plant, automating the full transfer process from bulk storage tanks to the packing line — with precision, hygiene, and scalability in mind.

Designed and built in-house by our specialist automation team, this system enables:

• Seamless integration of six future tanks with no major shutdown
• A pigging system to recover residual honey and clean pipelines
• Higher yield, reduced wastage, and longer equipment life

By automating key production steps, we’ve helped Egmont Honey:

• Increase throughput
• Reduce product loss
• Ensure hygiene compliance
• Future-proof their facility for growth
• Smart automation — tailored for efficiency, built for expansion.

This solution has improved hygiene, reduced wastage, and extended equipment life — all while enabling scalability without extended plant downtime.
