BW Packaging expands to Russia

BW Packaging Systems—the packaging machinery arm of Barry-Wehmiller, a $3 billion global supplier of engineering consulting and manufacturing technology—recently augmented its investment in the Russian packaging market by establishing Moscow-based sales, parts and field service teams to better serve both new and existing Russian customers.

The packaging equipment platform has brought together eight Russian packaging industry veterans, each with almost two decades of experience. Together, they are solely focused on the Russian market, with an office in Moscow that has dedicated customer service support and field service technicians, along with spare parts and aftermarket inventory. In July 2019, the team launched its own website, which provides detailed information on BW Packaging Systems Russia.
