GREIF-VELOX USA partnership with Trans Automation Technologies

Together for smart packaging solutions: With Trans Automation Technologies, GREIF-VELOX is expanding its presence in the US market - offering customers in California and beyond customized automation solutions from a single source.

Increased presence on the US market

The North American market is one of the most important target markets for GREIF-VELOX - particularly in the food packaging sector. In order to provide even better support to customers in the USA, a strategic sales partnership has now been concluded with Trans Automation Technologies. With immediate effect, the company will act as the official sales partner for GREIF-VELOX in the state of California.
The partnership will enable GREIF-VELOX to customize its innovative packaging and filling systems to meet the local requirements of the US market - and at the same time significantly increase local added value. This is not only efficient, but also a decisive advantage with regard to applicable customs regulations and supply chain requirements.

Automation and robotics

End-of-line solutions from a single source. The cooperation with Trans Automation Technologies in the area of end-of-line automation is particularly valuable. The company has extensive experience in the planning and implementation of robot-supported transport systems and palletizing robots - an ideal addition to the portfolio.
From now on, complete solutions will be implemented together in which the bagging systems, vacuum packers or filling systems from GREIF-VELOX interact perfectly with conveyor technology and palletizing solutions from Trans Automation Technologies. Market-leading components are used, e.g. Rockwell automation technology and Fanuc robot systems - precisely matched to US standards.
“This partnership is an important step for us in the North American market. With Trans Automation Technologies, we are not only gaining an experienced partner in automation technology, but also access to an established customer network - especially in the food industry,”
says Sebastian Pohl, Managing Director at GREIF-VELOX.

Who is Trans Automation Technologies?

The company, based in Irvine, California, is one of the leading providers of automation solutions in the USA. Customized conveyor systems, robot cells, pallet magazines and cover sheet feeders are created in the company’s own production facility in Santa Ana - with in-house engineering, design, electrical engineering and commissioning.
This in-house expertise enables Trans Automation Technologies to deliver end-to-end complete solutions for demanding automation projects - a clear added value for joint customer projects throughout the United States.
