Greif-Velox donates 1,750 euros to the Tafel Lübeck food bank

GREIF-VELOX is one of the most tradition-rich companies in the field of industrial bagging, filling and palletising technology. Its roots date back to the year 1100, when monks founded the Greifenmühle mill in Klützow, Pomerania – an origin from which centuries of practical expertise in handling bulk materials and efficient packaging processes have developed. Building on this experience, Ernst Mahlkuch, whose family had owned the Greifenmühle since 1734, founded GREIF-WERKE in 1938. Since then, the company has been developing and implementing high-performance bagging machines and filling systems for industrial applications. After 1945, GREIF-VELOX emerged from this foundation in Lübeck, Germany – today with more than 150 experts and a clear focus on innovative, efficient and reliable packaging solutions. GREIF-VELOX stands for customised system concepts that are precisely tailored to the product, process and production environment. These individual solutions not only increase production quality and system performance, but also create measurable competitive advantages. On request, GREIF-VELOX supplies complete full-line systems from a single source, including bagging, filling, conveying technology, robotic palletising and load securing. In addition to its customised Custom Line solutions, GREIF-VELOX offers the Essential Line: standardised, field-proven machine concepts for typical applications in bulk solids and liquid filling. The Essential Line reduces engineering effort, shortens delivery times and provides an economical entry point into proven GREIF-VELOX technology – without compromising on quality, reliability or industrial practicality.

The long-standing Greif Velox customer Cabot BV (Botlek) has successfully accepted the VeloVac vacuum packer as a full line.

With Greif-Velox’s vacuum packaging technology, Cabot can minimize product loss, improve workplace safety, and ensure compliance with international environmental standards. This results in significant cost savings throughout the entire logistics chain – from filling to further processing. By implementing the VeloVac technology, Greif-Velox strengthens its position as a strategic partner for companies seeking sustainable and economically optimized packaging solutions.
