There is a change at the helm of the packaging machinery manufacturer, Greif-Velox, based in Lübeck, Germany. Effective February 1, 2024, Sebastian Pohl, the former Director of Sales & Marketing, joins the management team alongside Thorsten Köll. Ralf Drews, the former CEO, has left the company.

Greif-Velox is expanding its distribution network in Europe, forging a strategic partnership with Sopack s.r.o. In this collaboration, the packaging machinery manufacturer and the Czech distribution and production company leverage synergies to position Greif-Velox's innovations in the Czech, Slovak, Polish, and Hungarian markets.

High performance, flexibility, and reliability: Greif-Velox's systems and industrial robots from KUKA are a perfect match. For several years, Greif-Velox has been utilizing the reliable components from the Augsburg-based manufacturer for robot palletizing in full-lines. Due to the successful collaboration, the contract for this system partnership has now been extended.
