This year, we are marking our 70th anniversary.
The company, initially named AB Emballagemaskiner, was established in 1954 in Örebro, Sweden. The primary focus was on the design and manufacturing of machines for semi-automatic and fully automatic folding and stitching of corrugated packaging. As business became more global, the EMBA brand was established. In 1962, the company introduced its folder gluer, capable of converting up to 18,000 boxes per hour — further reinforcing the company’s international presence.
Over the decades, EM
BA has introduced several solutions that have had a major impact on the pace of the industry. 1968, EMBA launched its first flexo folder gluer, the FFG 240. Through its innovation of vacuum transport technology, the company significantly advanced the corrugated packaging industry. With development as an ongoing process, we have since successfully launched several new FFG machines, all characterized by a design that enables fast setup, high productivity, and excellent print quality.
In 2006 the EMBA 245 QS Ultima was introduced, the world’s first Non-Crush-Converting™ machine. The groundbreaking, patented technology, featuring the unique Ultima Feeder™, marked a major leap forward in the development of FFG converting machines. The concept clearly exemplifies how our products evolve to modern needs, with a focus on speed, precision, and care for materials. 
To address market needs, EMBA has expanded the EMBA QS Ultima range with three additional sizes: 175 QS Ultima, 215 QS Ultima, and 295 QS Ultima. This now provides a versatile machine offering that can meet many of our customers’ needs. It creates significant customer value as all sizes are built on the Ultima platform, incorporating the same advanced technologies and benefits. This ensures a high level of consistency in operation and maintenance.
EMB
A has also introduced a range of product concepts under the EMBA Comfort brand, offering a complete 360-degree support program that covers every customer need. From professional service to condition monitoring, upgrades, spare parts, and training, EMBA Comfort ensures that both machines and operators perform at their best.
As we celebrate 70 years, our goal is to remain at the forefront of corrugated box production. By focusing on customer-driven product development, continuous process improvements, and a strong market presence, EMBA strive to provide high-quality machines for today and the future.
This milestone also offers us the opportunity to express our sincere gratitude to our customers, partners, and team for their contributions to the company’s success.
