The Origin of Greif-Velox

GREIF-VELOX is one of the oldest companies in the world with 1,000 years of company history: In the year 1,100, monks founded the Greifenmühle in Klützow in Pomerania, laying the foundations for many centuries of practical experience in efficient bagging, filling and palletizing. Ernst Mahlkuch, whose family had owned the Greifenmühle since 1734, used this experience to found GREIF-WERKE in 1938, which has been designing and producing innovative bagging machines and filling systems ever since. After 1945, GREIF-VELOX grew out of this foundation in Lübeck, Germany, with over 150 experts, who cultivate the tradition of over 1,000 years of innovation culture every day and thus constantly set new benchmarks in the industry. Customers do not need standard solutions off the shelf, but individual concepts and developments. As a rule, this individuality not only increases production quality and quantity, but also leads to strong competitive advantages that quickly pay for themselves. On request, GREIF-VELOX can supply complete full-line systems including robot palletizing and load securing from a single source to further enhance these advantages for the customer.
