Founded in Huntington, Ind. in 1962, Shuttleworth is a global leader in the engineering and production of cutting-edge materials handling equipment for the automotive, electronics, paper conversion, pharmaceuticals, food, personal care items, and other markets, featuring both materials handling and product packaging line equipment. The company was acquired by ProMach in 2011.
Shuttleworth currently occupies 3 facilities in Huntington to meet the manufacturing demands needed to provide automated conveyor solutions for customers across a range of industries including food, healthcare, eCommerce, automotive and more. The recently completed expansion will allow Shuttleworth to consolidate manufacturing to just two adjacent buildings while increasing operational efficiencies.
In attendance during the ceremony was Mayor Strick of Huntington, Linda Walczak of Indiana Economic Development, representatives from the office of U.S. Senator Mike Braun, key members of the ProMach Leadership team, plus past and present Shuttleworth employees.
“This important milestone is only made possible by the continued dedication of our excellent workforce we have here in Huntington and abroad in Belgium” said Dan Nasato, Vice-President, General Manager of Shuttleworth. “The new expansion allows us to accommodate larger automation systems more efficiently and positions our company for continued growth.”
