Multivac has announced in press release the addition of a new cooperation partner in the form of Rohwedder, a well-established provider of automation solutions.
The addition of Multivac packaging solutions to the Rohwedder process chain for back-end processes is particularly important for customers in the electronics and telecommunications industries, and will offer them significant competitive advantages, the company said.
“Against this background we are looking to develop cross-company solutions with our new partner,” explained Hans-Joachim Boekstegers, chairman of Multivac’s board of directors. “By allowing the reciprocal use of appropriate technologies from both companies in their solutions, this strategic cooperation will benefit not only Multivac and Rohwedder but also their customers.”
With around 750 employees worldwide, the Rohwedder group is a leading provider of system solutions and standard products for automation technology in Europe, Asia and North America.
“We intend to build a strong alliance, including a ‘first and last call’ option,” Mr Boekstegers added. “Not only will this alliance enable Rohwedder and Multivac to extend the range of products and services they offer, but it will also strengthen their competitive position, by giving both companies access to new markets and customers.”
