Husky announces global medical and packaging units

Husky Injection Moulding Systems has announced structural and organisational changes to launch dedicated business units for the medical and packaging markets.

Following the recent acquisition of Schöttli, a medical and closure mould maker, the group has made the decision to concentrate more closely on the two key markets.

Steve Lawrynuik, formerly Vice President of Customer Support, will lead this new area of the business as Vice President of Medical and Packaging Systems. This new business unit will align Schöttli with Husky’s speciality mould making facilities in Austria and the Czech Republic, as well as aftermarket tooling and services, and the ‘Hylectric’ platform.

“The creation of a dedicated medical and specialty packaging business will allow Husky to provide greater focus on these core markets and offer customers a complete solution, including mould, machine, hot runners, controllers and aftermarket services,” said John Galt, Husky’s President and CEO.
