KraussMaffei partners for expanded representation in Africa, Middle East

Plastics processing equipment maker KraussMaffei AG has partnered with Dubai-based Integrated Packaging Systems (IPS) to represent the KraussMaffei brand in key markets across the Middle East and Africa.

“As a successful partner of the Netstal brand for many years, IPS has both the expertise and experienced local sales and service personnel to greatly contribute toward expanding and strengthening KraussMaffei and Netstal operations and product offerings in these key regions,” Munich, Germany-based KraussMaffei said in a statement.

The new partnership extends over large parts of the Middle East, including the GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council) region, as well as key areas of Africa, including North, East and West African markets. 

“I am convinced that we will strengthen and further develop the sales and service activities also of the KraussMaffei brand in the short term, based on this partnership and through the use of the existing infrastructure of IPS,” said Dr. Hans Ulrich Golz, president of KraussMaffei’s injection molding machinery segment.
