History

In 1990, Wolfgang Geisinger acquired Ayer's Cliff Industries Ltd, a local machine shop and founded Wulftec. The first stretch wrapping was produced the during the following year. In 2002, M.J. Maillis Group announces the acquisition of Wulftec International Inc., the leading manufacturer of Stretch wrapping machines in Canada.[1]. The group's global resources and knowledge have strengthened Wulftec's competitive advantage and ability to provide more solutions to meet the individual needs of clients.

In November 2005, Wulftec announced that it will invest $1.5 million to further increase productivity.[2]

The investment involved a major expansion of Wulftec's plant in Ayer's Cliff, increasing the total surface area from the current 110,000 square feet to a whopping 136,000 square feet. The project was divided into two phases: first the construction of the new addition, and second, the reorganization of the production line.


Products

Turntables

At the end of 2004, Wulftec introduced the SMART™ Series to replace the WHP and WLP semi-automatic turntables. The SMART Series gives flexibility and quick-turnaround; you could now choose the individual components (turntable, tower, carriage and control panel) that will best meet the customers' needs. The SMART series is modular in design significantly reduce delivery time and make machine upgrades easier and less expansive.

In fall 2008, Wulftec standardized its WCA automatic turntable series on the same principles; merging the WCA-150 and the WCA-200 under the unique WCA-SMART™.

Rotary arms

Orbital stretch wrapping

Strapping systems

The Maillis name has been recognized in the strapping industry in Europe for over 40 years. In 2004, Maillis moved its production of high-end machinery for North America to Maillis Strapping Systems, Fountain Inn, South Carolina. There, with domestic sourcing of the off-the-shelf components including Allen Bradley controls, Maillis Strapping Systems is producing technology advanced strapping systems suited to the North American market. In 2010, the production of all strapping machinery was moved to the Wulftec facility in Ayer’s cliff, QC.
