IMS TECHNOLOGIES: The Numbers Behind Remarkable Growth

This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.IMS TECHNOLOGIES designs and manufactures slitter-rewinders for converting a vast range of materials. Through its GOEBEL IMS, LAEM IMS and ROTOMAC brands, IMS TECHNOLOGIES provides the global market solutions for slitting and rewinding plastic film, paper, aluminum, nonwovens, flexible packaging and other applications. All are defined by the highest standards of productivity, quality and precision.

There is no other company on the global market that can match IMS TECHNOLOGIES’ level of experience and diversification in slitting and rewinding technologies. Through the combined strength of the group’s brands and 170 years of history, IMS TECHNOLOGIES counts over 14,000 installations throughout the entire world.
Its industrial capacity is spread over a total area of 21,000 square meters between the Italian plants of Calcinate, Seriate — in the province of Bergamo — and Casale Monferrato. It integrates all processes of design, engineering, automation, component CNC machining, painting, assembly, testing, installation and after-sales service.

IMS TECHNOLOGIES operates globally through 400 direct employees with a widespread network made up of international branches and representative agents. The U.S. branch, IMS TECHNOLOGIES INC., was opened in New Jersey in 2019 and gives the North American market top-notch sales and technical-commercial support. Further investment is planned to strengthen the branch and give it greater service autonomy.

2021: A record-setting year

The just past year was one of excellent economic performance for IMS TECHNOLOGIES. In 2021, there was a 70% increase in order intake over the previous year, which had already been one of major growth itself.

This market penetration ran on two main paths:

  • Entering new geographic markets — such as India — and a business growth spurt in areas where it already has a high-potential presence: the U.S., China and Europe. In Europe alone, it saw a +40% increase in orders over the previous year;
  • Developing a new product line for converting nonwovens. This range immediately met with great market interest: indeed, the first sale was made through an agreement with one of the leading market manufacturers. This line adds to the group’s already ex- tensive range, with products that have all recorded double-digit growth.

An industrial strategy to support and fuel this growth

Over the last two years, under the leadership of new management, the group launched major internal reorganization processes, which are now in full swing after a run-up period. One key decision was to centralize manufacturing in the Italian plants, which has led to excellent levels of productivity, efficiency and competitiveness, needed to successfully operate on the global converting market.

On these solid foundations, IMS TECHNOLOGIES is poised to become a top international force in the converting industry.
