For many years, Parkland International has been a recognised name within the converting industry, particularly in the field of core cutting machinery. Their equipment has been used by manufacturers and converters across the world, helping businesses maintain efficient production for decades.
Recent developments indicate that Parkland International is no longer manufacturing new core cutting machines and is instead focusing on servicing and supplying spare parts for its existing installed base.
As fellow UK manufacturers, we at Universal Converting Equipment are genuinely saddened to see another long-standing machinery manufacturer step back from active production. The manufacturing industry has faced significant challenges in recent years, from rising material and energy costs to wider economic uncertainty across Europe and beyond.
The loss of any specialist engineering manufacturer is felt throughout the industry. Companies like Parkland helped build the reputation of British engineering within the converting sector, and their contribution is recognised.
