The company operates through Original Equipment and Service segments, leveraging specialist technology to serve critical sectors including pharmaceuticals and healthcare. Recent strategic acquisitions include CSi Palletising (€56 million, announced 2024) and SIGA Vision, strengthening its packaging automation capabilities and expanding into palletising solutions.
Cyborg Score Rationale
