Komori Corporation, Tokyo, and the shareholders of the MBO Group have concluded an agreement regarding the acquisition of the MBO Group by Komori-Group. Thereby the MBO Group becomes, subject to regulatory approvals, a part of the Komori Group.
Since its establishment in 1923 the Komori Group produces and distributes in particular high-quality offset printing machines. Since 2009, Komori has an increased focus on the development of the so-called Print-Engineering-Service-Provider-Business (PESP). For this purpose, the marketing of cutting machinery, punching machines, pile turners and other processing units for the package printing was driven forward. The focus is on the diversification of the product portfolio.
The MBO Group, located in Germany, was founded in 1965. The MBO-Group is a worldwide operating company specializing in development, production and marketing of machines and automation solutions for the post processing of digital and offset printing, as well as of mailing, pharmaceutical and special applications with its brand Herzog+Heymann.
The acquisition of the MBO Group allows Komori to market the whole process chain from printing to post processing as well as IoT-based cloud solutions such as KP-Connect in the future.
