A B Graphic International (ABG) has announced a significant expansion of its manufacturing site in Baesweiler, Germany. Originally acquired by ABG in 2006, the Baesweiler facility currently spans 2,300 square meters. The expansion, which began in December 2024, will nearly double the footprint to 4,400 square meters with the addition of a custom-built facility at the same location. The move reinforces ABG’s commitment to the German market and its customers.

The Baesweiler site plays a pivotal role in ABG’s operations, producing key products such as Slitter Rewinders (SRI3), Booklet Machines, FleyeVision Camera Inspection Systems and Specialist Rewinders, to name just a few. The new facility will consolidate the current warehouse, workshop and paint booth, allowing the existing space to be repurposed as a dedicated specialist demonstration center and streamlined production zones. This strategic development effectively doubles ABG’s production floor space, enhancing its ability to meet increased customer demand.

This expansion will enable shorter production times and accommodate larger schedules. By doubling the available production footprint, ABG is well-positioned to drive growth across all departmental areas, ensuring it can continue to deliver industry-leading solutions.

“Our Baesweiler facility has been integral to our operations and customer satisfaction,” states Matt Burton, ABG’s global sales director. “This expansion underlines our dedication to the German market and our long-term strategy to invest in areas where demand for our products is strongest.”

“As well as operational growth, this new development will create skilled job opportunities for the local community while also offering career development for our existing workforce, aligning with ABG’s vision of combining business growth with meaningful contributions to the local economy,” adds Ralf Wirtz, ABG GmbH’s managing director.

The necessity of the expansion is amplified by the increased demand for ABG’s solutions. A recent milestone includes a label group purchasing 16 FleyeVision Camera Inspection Systems, a testament to the market’s confidence in ABG’s technology. The enhanced capacity will further strengthen ABG’s ability to meet such demands and maintain its position in the field.
