What is a secondary packaging machine? It is the history of SMI. The new ERGON series, derived from the Greek word 'ERGON' meaning 'work'!
SMI Corporation designs and manufactures completed container packaging systems not only in the food and beverage sector but also focusing on detergents, hygiene, and the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Established in the 1970s, it developed its first shrink wrapper in the 1980s. Since then, it has continuously upgraded its technology, and to date, it has sold over 6,000 secondary packaging machines, including wrap-around case packers. This is why SMI is synonymous with packaging machines. In its new series of secondary packaging machines, ERGON, SMI has introduced an innovative concept from the perspectives of ergonomics and modularity, further enhancing the flexibility of its packaging machines and significantly simplifying management and maintenance tasks. This is the result of a two-year research and development project that has led to a remarkable enhancement of the technical configuration of SMI's secondary packaging machines.

Founded in Tokyo in 1948 by German entrepreneur Klaus Koerens, our company was the first German trading company allowed to resume business in Japan after the war. Since our establishment, we have walked alongside Japanese companies through Japan's reconstruction, modernization, and the period of rapid economic growth. Throughout our history of over 75 years, our constant passion has been to introduce cutting-edge technologies from Europe to companies active in various industries in Japan. At the same time, the diverse feedback from our Japanese customers has been reflected back to European suppliers, resulting in many instances of refined technology. We take pride in the fact that we continue to be a leading German trading company in Japan, as this reflects the high regard our efforts have received from both customers and suppliers. Moving forward, we will continue to stand between our Japanese customers and overseas manufacturers, taking into account differences in business practices, culture, traditions, and behaviors, and striving to create better relationships based on mutual respect. Furthermore, we will not only focus on product sales but also work hard to provide long-term after-sales service to our customers after delivery.
