How we operate

From our new building in Norton (UK) with its own design, engineering, and test facilities, we offer the best possible solution for every job. This takes into account a wide variety of practical considerations, such as space and logistics limitations in facilities. We validate machines for different purposes, such as pharmaceutical requirements, legislation, or safety guidelines in specific countries. We deal directly with UK customers and have sales and support agents worldwide, including Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Europe, Asia and the Americas.

OUR History

Webb Automation was founded in 1974 by George Webb and is dedicated to designing, developing, and manufacturing packaging equipment for the powder and granule industry.    

In 2022, Webb was acquired by a consortium consisting of Ian Barnes and Andrew Kennedy from Pharma Packaging Systems (UK) and Michael Staudt from Altrimex (NL). We are now integrated with a larger group of companies, providing us with enhanced expertise and resources. As part of this collaboration, we are committed to continuing to operate and improve our business to better serve our customers.
