Equipment manufacturer for the packaging industry, Flexicon Corporation has opened a new sales office in Sydney, which it says will better service the company's expanding business in New South Wales. The addition of the Sydney sales office was timed to complement the expansion of Flexicon's Brisbane manufacturing facilities.
The company, which provides bulk handling equipment to the chemical, food, dairy and pharmaceutical industries says the facility is equipped with sales management and administrative offices, a conference centre and a covered exterior entertainment area.Ray Greene, general manager of Flexicon says, “Adding a dedicated sales facility in Sydney allows us to double the number of Flexicon personnel servicing this market, while allowing the Brisbane and Melbourne offices to devote additional time to our Queensland and Victoria and South Australia customers.”
Recently the company’s Brisbane manufacturing facility’s existing 1000sqm space was more than tripled by expanding into an adjacent 2200sqm plant, in order to increase its manufacturing and engineering capacity.
The Australian operation is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the US-based Flexicon Corporation and produces Flexicon's full range of bulk handling equipment including flexible screw conveyors, pneumatic conveying systems, bulk bag unloaders, bulk bag conditioners, bulk bag fillers, manual dumping stations and weigh batching systems.
The Australian subsidiary handles sales, manufacturing and service throughout Australia, New Zealand, South East Asia and the South Pacific Rim, managing projects ranging from stand-alone equipment to custom-engineered, turnkey systems including commissioning, training and handover.
