Straub Verpackungen opens 19,000 sqm plant in Bräunlingen

Straub Verpackungen officially opened its new Plant 3 in Bräunlingen, Germany, in October 2026, adding 19,000 square metres to relieve crowded production at its main site. The hall, with a green roof and photovoltaic system, houses a 55.8-tonne Göpfert G-Cut flatbed die-cutter rated at up to 6,500 sheets per hour. The family-owned converter plans to move some machines from Bräunlingen and Blumberg into the plant, an investment management links to the coming generational change.

Why this mattersThe plant gives a family-owned German converter room to separate crowded flexo, inliner and die-cutting operations and to bring in machines from its Blumberg site.

Updates

  • 2026-11-04 · Edited before publication: The source says the plant relieves crowding and that some machines will move in. 'Add capacity' and 'consolidate equipment from two sites' overstate this; reworded.
  • 2026-11-04 · Edited before publication: 'Third plant' is wrong: the site is called Plant 3 (Werk 3), and the company already has a Plant IV, built for digital printing in 2018. The 2018 key fact is made more precise to match.
