Always near the customer
B&R is a key strategic partner for Canadian machine builders in industries ranging from packaging and plastics to special-purpose machinery.

B&R's impressive production
Wimmer and Kastinger led the ambassador on a tour of B&R's own smart manufacturing operations. "What I've seen here at B&R has been very impressive.
