I've often struggled with this term. Sometimes bottling plant will work but only if it involves beverages. Cannery is another possibility (I used to work in one as a hot-grabber) but again, it's too specific and doesn't cover other methods of abfüllen. Can anyone think of a generic term that would work here?

Bei der Lagerung von Lebensmitteln wäre dies z. B. die Überwachung der Kerntemperatur oder die Reinigung der Füllstation in einer Abfüllanlage.

Filling plant
I think I'd use this, and rely on the remaining context to tell the reader what it is actually filling and into what type of container. I certainly wouldn't like the idea of "filling station" - I don't drink petrol (or diesel), which is the usual meaning in English. It might also have been deliberately christened thus by the English, noted for their sometimes perverse sense of humour...

Of course, you could also write "filling and bottling plant".....
