Effective 1 August, the former Schenck Process Food and Performance Materials (FPM) group of companies have officially changed their name to Coperion. The transition follows the September 2023 acquisition of the companies by Hillenbrand (NYSE: HI), the parent company of Coperion.
The integrated Coperion companies combine the strengths of multiple process industry leaders under a single brand, offering manufacturers a broader portfolio of solutions, technologies and services across the food, health and nutrition markets, such as baking, confectionery, pet food, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, as well as the polymers/performance materials industries such as plastics, plastics recycling, chemical, battery and minerals.
Coperion brings flagship brands together under one roof, including those that were formally from Schenck Process (FPM) – Raymond Bartlett Snow, Stock, Baker Perkins, Kemutec, and Mucon. This allows Coperion to offer solutions to customers in a more streamlined way—with an even deeper team of process experts and collaborative problem-solvers. Customers will continue to receive hands-on service and support, including access to test and innovation centers around the world.
