09.09.2013 Coperion and K-Tron to join forces

K-Tron, a specialist in the field in feeding, dosing, and pneumatic conveying equipment and systems, will with effect from beginning of October operate under the name Coperion K-Tron.  Coperion was acquired by US-based Hillenbrand, Inc. in December 2012. 

K-Tron has been a part of Hillenbrand’s Process Equipment Group since 2010.
"Operating under the Coperion name is a decisive and indispensable component of our corporate strategy, which aims to further expand our position in the global market,” said Thomas Kehl, president of Coperion. According to a press statement issued by Coperion, the  
decision to integrate the two entreprises represents the next logical step in Coperion’s strategy, reinforcing its position as the only company worldwide to offer complete customised compounding systems and bulk materials handlings systems from a single supplier. www.coperion.com
