Pro Mach end-of-line group senior vice-president Gary Evans said: "Texwrap has an excellent product line and talented people that complement our existing capabilities and customer base.
"Their knack for solving customer problems using cost-effective and proven technology makes them a great addition to our end-of-line group. Their solutions also give Pro Mach one of the strongest and most thorough distributed product lines in the industry. As Pro Mach continues to grow, additions like this only strengthen our position as a world leader in packaging machinery solutions and customer service."
