Bundaberg Brewed Drinks will demonstrate their use of robotics on the production line at their Bundaberg manufacturing facility on Wednesday, 22 May at 1pm.

The event is part of the State Government’s Inside Advanced Manufacturing series, which is running statewide 20-24 May and offers behind-the-scenes, expert-guided facility tours, showcasing the new techniques and technologies transforming the sector.

State Development Minister Cameron Dick commended Bundaberg Brewed Drinks for sharing their knowledge and expertise with others.

“Using robotics on the production line to help bottle the brand’s 13 flavours, including their legendary ginger beer, Bundaberg Brewed Drinks has achieved great success combining age-old traditions with leading-edge technologies,” Mr Dick said.

“Inside Advanced Manufacturing celebrates the best of the sector right across Queensland, and it’s fantastic that this great Bundaberg business is involved in this initiative.”

Mr Dick said the Government was committed to ensuring Queensland manufacturers have the support they need to grow locally and extend their reach globally.

“Since we launched our Advanced Manufacturing 10-Year Roadmap and Action Plan in 2016, we have made significant progress in bringing new advanced manufacturing jobs, innovation and opportunities to Queensland,” he said.

“Manufacturing is vital to growing and diversifying our state’s economy and creating the jobs of the future, and our government is pleased to help shine a light on the local businesses who are innovating in Queensland and employing more Queenslanders.”
