The acquisition includes the original research and development facility in Kongsberg, Norway, and the production facility in Brno, Czech Republic.

‘This is an opportunity for the Kongsberg team to realie its ambitions, and to explore new markets,’ added Stuart. ‘We will be developing strategic initiatives to further innovate our digital finishing hardware and software solutions, as well as growing the Kongsberg brand beyond the packaging industry.

‘Whilst we are excited about the future, we are also committed to ensuring we honour our heritage. We have an incredible team of 400 people, many of whom have been a part of the Kongsberg family for more than 30 years. The Kongsberg values that are important to our customers – the strength, the performance, the longevity of the machine – will endure.’

‘Sales, service, consumables and spare parts will all continue as usual,’ added Stuart. ‘Customers will receive the same level of service during the transition and they can look forward to business as usual throughout 2021.

‘We will continue investing in our table technology, and in the coming months we will be showcasing the latest developments with our automation solutions.’
