Stork IMM (Stork Plastic Machinery B.V.), based in Hengelo, the Netherlands, has opened a sales and service operation in the United Kingdom.
Stork IMM UK builds on the company’s more than 20-year history in the U.K. The company manufactures IMMs ranging in size from 200 to 2,000 tons for high-speed packaging applications.
The expansion, in partnership with Chudleigh Sutch UK Ltd. of East Sussex, Stork IMM’s existing U.K. service and sales partner, will support a growing base of customers in Europe, according to Gert Boers, Stork IMM’s CEO.
Stork IMM UK will stock spare parts for rapid delivery to U.K.-based customers.
The U.K. expansion comes on the heels of the opening of a U.S. sales and service operation in Swedesboro, N.J.
