Schur has become the official agency for Ishida in Denmark. With both companies being market-leading and family-owned, this new collaboration presents significant potential.

About Schur
Schur, a family-owned packaging company, was founded in Denmark in 1846. Now managed by the 6th generation, Schur is globally represented and specializes in packaging, labels, marking, and automation.

About Ishida
Ishida, founded in Japan in 1893, is a world-leading supplier of weighing and quality control systems. The company is managed by the 5th generation of the Ishida family.

A Strong History of Collaboration
Over the years, Schur and Ishida have worked together on various automation solutions for joint customers and have co-presented at trade shows. Now, the two companies are taking their partnership to the next level.

Johan Schur, CEO of Schur and 6th-generation family leader, states:
“At Schur, we pride ourselves on being the ‘Leader of the Pack’ as a total solution supplier within packaging and automation. We are extremely proud to announce this new partnership with Ishida. They produce industry-leading products in weighing and quality control, which we have previously offered on our automated packing lines. We now look forward to officially offering them to the market as an official Ishida supplier. We are certain that the shared synergies and values between Schur and Ishida will create unrivalled possibilities for our customers.”

Dave Tiso, Managing Director at Ishida Europe, shares his thoughts on the collaboration:
“As we have previously co-created different projects with Schur, we know that our solutions and mindsets are a good match. Schur is well-established in the Danish and Scandinavian markets with their packaging and automation solutions. They are an excellent partner to help us gain more market share and introduce new solutions to future Ishida/Schur customers.”

Despite originating from two different cultures, Schur and Ishida share many values and principles. Both companies, as family-owned businesses, value decency, mutual respect, and quality. Johan Schur comments:
“From our previous joint projects with Ishida, we know that they value decency, mutual respect, and quality just as highly as we do. We believe this will be a long-term partnership, as both our product portfolio and mindset align with our shared ambitions of being market leaders in our areas of expertise.”

The Ishida agency will be managed by Schur Automation A/S, experts in automated packing solutions, logistics, marking, and quality control equipment.
