Dorner acquires Geppert-Band
Dorner is a conveyor system manufacturer and Geppert-Band, a European manufacturer of belt and modular belt conveyors.
The addition of Geppert-Band expands Dorner’s geographic coverage and continues its strategy of international expansion. In late 2015, Dorner opened an office in Canada and acquired Malaysian manufacturer of flexible chain conveyors FlexMove.
“As we continue to see growth internationally the addition of Geppert-Band allows us to better serve the European market,” says Terry Schadeberg, president and CEO, Dorner.
“Its product offering and capabilities complement our existing strategy.”
“We share a lot of similar core values, including a commitment to providing fast deliveries and quality customer service,” adds Thomas Blesinger, president, Geppert-Band. “Dorner has a strong reputation in the conveyor market and we’re looking forward to providing our customers with an even wider variety of solutions.”
