Concentrated competence for automation in the furniture industry

The technology leader for cut to size solutions Schelling acquires the specialist for automated edge processing technology IMA from Adcuram in Munich. Together both companies will lead the way in automation technology for the panel processing and furniture industries.

The Austrian company Schelling Anlagenbau GmbH and the German IMA Klessmann GmbH have been cooperating for over 25 years because the two companies complement each other perfectly. While Schelling is the worldwide leader in cut to size machines and plants for wood panels and other materials, IMA is a highly regarded specialist for edge processing technology and systems for the furniture and component manufacturing industries.

Industry 4.0 Challenges in the Future

Complete system solutions and the controlled automation of production processes are the key areas in the future of industrial manufacturing. Both companies have accumulated a wealth of know how in these fields. Therefore, it seemed obvious to take the long lasting successful collaboration of the two companies and turn it into an official partnership.

While both brands will be preserved, the companies will intensify their collaboration in all areas of business. Most importantly when it comes to developing and executing the newest most groundbreaking technologies which will underscore their position as global technology leaders.

The partnership will also yield positive synergy effects in sales, purchasing and manufacturing for both companies. The global subsidiaries of both companies will work even closer together and the dealer networks of both companies which already overlap in 90% of the world markets will bring even more advantages to the customers and partners of the two companies.

Combined revenue of 230 million Euros

For many years both companies have shared exhibition space at numerous trade shows worldwide. At the same time the companies have successfully managed and executed many large scale customer installations and projects. The newly elevated partnership will present more of these opportunities and help intensify the cooperation.

Joined in this new partnership Schelling and IMA wish for an even greater recognition in the global market place by better positioning both companies as major players with a total of over 1,400 employees and over 250 million Euros in revenue.
