Greif-Velox and Havel GmbH join forces in Austria
With Havel GmbH, Greif-Velox has gained an experienced partner for the Austrian market. The official signing of the partnership took place during GREIF-VELOX CONNECT 2026 in Lübeck.
The Lübeck-based specialist for filling, bagging and palletizing technology is expanding its international sales structure and entering into a partnership with Havel GmbH for Austria. The aim of the cooperation is to support customers locally even more directly and to implement joint projects in the fields of filling, packaging and automation efficiently.
Havel GmbH, based in Vienna, specializes in the automation and integration of packaging processes – from unpackaged products to fully palletized goods. This holistic approach is an ideal fit for Greif-Velox’s solution portfolio, which focuses on efficient, safe and future-proof technologies for industrial packaging processes.
“With Havel GmbH, we are relying on an experienced partner who shares our vision of integrated and efficient packaging solutions,” says Sebastian Pohl, Managing Director at Greif-Velox. “Together, we can support our customers in Austria in an even more targeted way and implement projects efficiently.”
For customers in Austria, the partnership primarily means greater market proximity, direct local contacts and closer support throughout the entire packaging process. At the same time, they benefit from the technology expertise from Lübeck in filling, bagging, palletizing and automation.
Ing. Adalbert Havel, Managing Director of Havel GmbH, adds: “We are looking forward to the cooperation and to supporting our customers in the future with the innovative solutions from Greif-Velox.”
GREIF-VELOX CONNECT 2026 in Lübeck provided the official setting for the signing. The event brought together partners, customers and industry experts to discuss current requirements and solutions in industrial packaging processes.
The initiation of the cooperation was significantly supported by the German Chamber of Commerce in Austria. As a central platform for German-Austrian business exchange, it brought the two companies together and created an important basis for the successful collaboration.
With this partnership, Greif-Velox is strengthening its market presence in Austria and expanding its international network with a partner that has extensive experience in the automation and integration of packaging processes. Together, both companies aim to realize new projects and support customers in developing efficient, integrated and future-proof packaging solutions.
