Strategic Partnership with Trans Automation Technologies: GREIF-VELOX Expands Automation Expertise in the U.S.
Working together for smart packaging solutions: Our partnership with Trans Automation Technologies marks a significant step in expanding our presence in the U.S. market – providing customers in California and beyond with tailor-made automation solutions from a single source.
Strengthening our presence in the U.S. packaging machinery market
North America is one of the most important target markets for GREIF-VELOX – particularly in the food packaging sector. To offer even better support to our customers in the U.S., we have entered into a strategic sales partnership with Trans Automation Technologies. Effective immediately, the company will serve as the official sales partner for GREIF-VELOX in the state of California.
This partnership allows us to adapt our innovative bagging and filling systems more precisely to the specific needs of the U.S. market – while also significantly increasing local value creation. This is not only efficient but also a key advantage in light of current customs regulations and supply chain requirements.
Automation and robotics: End-of-line solutions from a single source
The collaboration with Trans Automation Technologies is especially valuable in the area of end-of-line automation. The company brings extensive experience in planning and implementing robot-based conveyor systems and palletizing robots – making it an ideal addition to our portfolio.
Together, we now deliver complete solutions where our bagging machines, vacuum packers, or filling systems are seamlessly integrated with conveyor and palletizing systems from Trans Automation Technologies. We rely on industry-leading components such as Rockwell automation technology and Fanuc robotics – fully aligned with U.S. technical standards.

„This partnership is an important milestone for us in the North American market. With Trans Automation Technologies, we are not only gaining an experienced automation partner but also access to a well-established customer network – especially in the food industry.“
