- Over 100 million EURO investment
- Labelling machine division expansion
- Self-adhesive material increase to capacity
HERMA have a master plan and it’s BIG. A plan that extends right through to 2040 and sees HERMA making the largest investment in the company’s 110-year history, a total exceeding 100 million euros. The field of self-adhesive materials is currently experiencing strong growth, and HERMA’s extensive expansion plans keeps them at the pinnacle of the industry.
Result Group have partnered exclusively with HERMA since 2008. First with their Labelling Machine divisions and over the last 3 years their Self-Adhesive Materials division.
“Thanks to their innovative products, HERMA had been able to consistently grow faster than the market over the last few years”, says Result Group General Manager, Michael Dossor. “They have again proven themselves to be global experts and we are continuously resassured that we have partnered with the best in the industry.”
The first stage of HERMA’s master plan will see them build an all new coating plant for self-adhesive materials at its headquarters in Filderstadt near Stuttgart, Germany. This is the largest investment in the company’s 110-year history and will see HERMA’s coating capacity increase by 50% – from currently 750 million square metres to more than 1.1 billion square meters of self-adhesive materials. Not just in machinery and the latest technology, but more than doubling the overall footprint of the facility.
HERMA’s Labelling Machines division, which is also growing at rates faster than ever before, will move to Filderstadt during the course of this investment. The largest growth drivers at the moment are labelling machines for the Pharmaceutical, Fresh Produce and General FMCG sectors, as well as expansion in new international markets.
“We have the historically unique opportunity to build state-of-the-art production lines for labellers and labelling machines – within an ideal building layout”, says Martin Kühl, head of HERMA’s Labelling Machines division.
