Pro Mach acquires Texwrap

Pro Mach, a leading integrated packaging solutions company, has announced it has acquired Stork-Texwrap, a manufacturer of fully automatic shrink wrapping systems.

The addition of Stork-Texwrap expands Pro Mach’s secondary packaging product line to support customers’ end-of-line packaging operations. Pro Mach will continue to leverage the Texwrap brand and maintain their current facility in Washington, Mo. Texwrap manufactures automated shrink wrap systems including a full line of shrink wrappers, L-bar sealers, side sealers, tunnels, infeed solutions, and conveyors. For 40 years, Texwrap has served a variety of industries including food, bakery, industrial, pharmaceutical, and printing companies worldwide.

Stork Fabricators, a full service metal fabrication shop housed at the Stork-Texwrap facility, will also continue to operate and provide custom services including plasma and waterjet cutting, as well as CNC machining including laser, punch, turning, milling, press brakes, and more for a variety of industrial, commercial, military, and aerospace applications.

“We’re pleased to welcome the Stork-Texwrap team to Pro Mach,” said Mark Anderson, Pro Mach president and CEO. “Their products strengthen our core technology offering and allow us to serve a wider range of customers with an established and trusted brand.”

Texwrap brings a nationwide network of packaging distributor partners. These existing partnerships allow Pro Mach to strengthen its distributed products footprint with solutions for case and tray forming/sealing, pallet stretch wrapping, and now shrink wrapping through key brands Wexxar/BEL, IPak, Orion, and now Texwrap.

“The net result is a win-win for our customers and team,” said Robert Stork, founder of Stork-Texwrap. “Pro Mach has a strong reputation for investing in its brands and creating a support network that benefits its customers. This will help ensure the continued growth of the Texwrap brand, while also introducing both Pro Mach and our customers to new packaging opportunities.”
