Discussing Indeck Ladysmith’s need for a bag palletizer
Indeck Ladysmith is a company in the wood pellet industry that recently made the decision to move away from a robotic palletizer to a Verbruggen palletizer. The company was looking for a more efficient and reliable solution for palletizing its wood pellets, and after careful consideration, it decided that a Verbruggen palletizer was the best fit for its needs.
Since making the switch to a Bag Palletizer, Indeck Ladysmith has been extremely pleased with the results.
The Verbruggen palletizer has proven to be much more efficient and reliable than the company’s previous solution, with faster palletizing speeds and fewer downtime issues.

Overall, Indeck Ladysmith is extremely satisfied with its decision to switch to a Verbruggen palletizer, and the company is confident that it has made the right choice for its palletizing needs. The company credits the success of the switch to Verbruggen’s high-quality equipment and excellent customer support, and it looks forward to a long and successful partnership with the company.
