#History
Schubert Packaging
Systems GmbH

We provide customized
packaging solutions
Schubert Packaging Systems is a specialist in end-of-line packaging, turnkey lines, engineering consulting and the pharmaceutical industry.
Schubert Packaging Systems was founded in 1972 (at that time under the name International Packaging Systems) as a sales company for the worldwide marketing of Gerhard Schubert GmbH packaging machines. Twenty years later, IPS became a wholly owned subsidiary of Gerhard Schubert GmbH in Crailsheim.
The mission of Schubert Packaging Systems is the holistic optimization of packaging processes: with interdisciplinary approaches, we develop complete solutions for packaging lines and systems that go far beyond the simple installation and linking of individual machines. Across industries, we design turnkey lines and, as an engineering service provider, advise both medium-sized companies and international corporations on all aspects of end-of-line packaging and related processes.
