Coperion Moves to Streamline US Operations
Machine builder is relocating Salina operation to existing facilities in Kansas, Wisconsin and Missouri.
Coperion has announced it will streamline its North America operations in an effort to improve operational efficiency.
As outlined in a press release sent by the supplier of extrusion, compounding and recycling systems, Coperion’s North American operations in Salina, Kansas, will soon be relocated to existing facilities in Whitewater, Wisconsin; Sabetha, Kansas; and Kansas City, Missouri, which manufacture similar products and have the capacity to handle larger volumes. The Whitewater and Kansas City facilities are equipped with state-of-the-art test centers and offer customer trials, Coperion says.
The machine builder notes this action is the latest in Coperion’s transformation over the past two years that includes the addition of premier brands and products to its technology suite, enabling the company to offer enhanced solutions to customers.
“I am confident that streamlining our U.S. operations will enable us to strengthen our support for customers in the Americas and allow us to uphold our commitment to delivering high-quality, innovative solutions,” says Ulrich Bartel, Coperion president.
