Bühler Announces Acquisition of Design Corrugating
MINNEAPOLIS – Bühler North America is expanding its service network and offerings with the acquisition of Design Corrugating Companies, a roller mill and other equipment service company based in Taylorville, Illinois. With this move, Bühler now operates seven service centers in the United States, serving grain, oilseed, feed, petfood, and chocolate processors, as well as brewers and distillers, inks and coatings, and other companies that utilize roller mills.
Design Corrugating provides roller mill parts and services, including roll reconditioning, new rolls, and other equipment parts and services, with facilities in Taylorville, Illinois; Oakdale, California; Wichita, Kansas; and Chattanooga, Tennessee. All Design Corrugating locations will become new Service Center sites in the Bühler Customer Service network, and the entire Design Corrugating staff has joined the Bühler team. Existing operations will continue unchanged, utilizing the “pick-up, repair and deliver” model. Bühler will continue to provide parts and services for all makes and models of roller mills. Future investments are planned for equipment that will allow new services to be delivered, and the full Bühler supply chain will be leveraged to improve competitiveness in terms of cost and efficiency. Customers will also benefit from Bühler’s deep process expertise as an original equipment manufacturer, to deliver improved operational insights along with the core services already provided.
