BW Flexible Systems, a global maker of flexible packaging machinery for BW Packaging, will unveil its new Brooklyn Park production plant. For the company’s Minnesota-based package brands Thiele, SYMACH, and Streamfeeder, the site at 9360 West Broadway Avenue, Suite 100 was created as a dynamic workplace, research and development facility, and innovative production facility.
More than 135 local team members of BW Flexible Systems, which formerly operated out of another facility in Minneapolis, have relocated to the business’s new Brooklyn Park location. This location is close to the global headquarters of Accraply, a sister company of BW Flexible Systems and BW Packaging’s labeling and sleeving solutions division.
“The Minneapolis area has been home to our Thiele team for decades, and as we continue to grow, we wanted to invest in a facility that meets our space and efficiency needs, while reflecting the pride we have in our team, our community and the customers we serve,” said Douglas McGraw, president of BW Flexible Systems. “The machines produced by our Minnesota-based team are recognized worldwide for providing the very best packaging solutions for pet food, animal feed, seeds and grains, and other products.”
BW Flexible Systems creates flexible packaging solutions by bringing together some of the industry’s most trusted and innovative brands, including Hayssen, Thiele, Rose Forgrove, Sandiacre, Schib, Simionato, SYMACH, Streamfeeder and others. Its range of machinery options includes form-fill-seal packaging, horizontal flow-wrapping, bag filling and palletizing, and more. BW Flexible Systems is one of several Barry-Wehmiller companies represented in BW Packaging, which brings together the collective packaging capabilities of Accraply, BW Flexible Systems, BW Integrated Systems, Pneumatic Scale Angelus and Synerlink.
