Starlinger & Co Gesellschaft m.b.H. takes over the woven packaging division from Windmöller & Hölscher (W&H), as well as its Viennese subsidiary company “W&H Machinery GmbH” which specializes in woven packaging.

With this acquisition, Starlinger further strengthens its position as world-leading supplier of machinery for woven plastic packaging. The company believes integration of the related technologies has synergy effects in engineering, service, and sales.

In Weissenbach, Lower Austria, Starlinger manufactures machinery for the production of woven plastic packaging.

“The acquisition of W&H’s woven packaging division means that we can extend our portfolio and offer even more individual solutions to producers of sustainable woven plastic packaging,” said Angelika Huemer, CEO and Managing Partner of Starlinger.

“We expect synergy effects and advantages for our customers not only with regard to technology, but also through our well-developed worldwide sales and service network,” she added.

On the other hand, parting with the woven packaging division allows W&H to focus its resources on growth in the paper and film packaging market.

The products of W&H’s woven packaging portfolio will be marketed by Starlinger in future. The rest of W&H’s product portfolio remains unaffected. With regard to service and spare parts, Starlinger takes over the worldwide support of the customers.
