Engineering and manufacturing in Germany

Why we design and build our cartoning machines in Karlsbad despite cost pressure.

Cost pressure, global supply chains, fierce competition: many machine builders are relocating their production abroad. That is understandable and often sensible. We decided differently anyway – out of conviction.

An industry in transition

“Made in Germany” has long stood for precision, reliability and engineering excellence built into the machines themselves. The question is what that still means today. For us, the choice was: follow the market or keep our own standards.

Quality comes from interaction

A cartoning machine consists of many synchronised movements. Its quality does not depend on individual components, but on how everything works together. That is why design, assembly and final acceptance are closely linked at our company – in Karlsbad, under one roof. This results in mechanical precision, reliable running and reproducible results.

What counts in everyday operation

The true quality of a machine shows in daily operation: stable processes, reproducible format changes, little downtime. And if something does happen, short distances, direct contact with the technicians and fast access to spare parts are what count. This is exactly what manufacturing in Germany makes possible.

A promise, not a label

For us, “Made in Germany” is not a label but a standard we have to live up to every day – with every machine that leaves our plant.
