HERMA GmbH, a provider of labeling machinery and self-adhesive labels and materials to the global packaging marketplace, has moved its Labeling Machinery Division to a new facility at its headquarters site in Filderstadt, Germany. The new plant will incorporate a more modern, streamlined production layout for maximized manufacturing efficiency.
 
The move also concentrates each of HERMA’s divisions – Self-adhesive Materials, Labels, and Labeling Machines – in one location for cross-departmental strategies and solutions. 
 
In recent years, HERMA successfully launched an American subsidiary, HERMA US, and the company recently introduced the next-generation HERMA 500, with industrial-grade Ethernet connectivity, the IIoT-enabled machine utilizes real-time metrics to optimize production efficiency and consistency. The HERMA 500 is capable of achieving labeling speeds up to 200m/min, and can handle label widths between 80-320mm and roll diameters from 300–600mm.
