Barry-Wehmiller to enhance focus on flexible packaging and end-of-line integrated systems
BW Flexible Systems and BW Integrated Systems to debut Jan. 1
Responding to rising demand for its innovative flexible packaging equipment as well as more complete integrated systems, Barry-Wehmiller is creating two new divisions dedicated to meeting these needs.
On Jan. 1, the flexible packaging experts from Hayssen Flexible Systems and the bag converting and bag filling divisions of Thiele Technologies will come together to form a single team as BW Flexible Systems. Led by Doug McGraw, BW Flexible Systems will specialize in the development, manufacture and sales of flexible packaging equipment including horizontal and vertical form-fill- seal solutions, bag converting and filling-sealing of pre-made bags. The team will also integrate scales and bag palletizers.
