Packserv Featured by PKN News: Taking Australian Machinery to the US Market

Australian packaging machinery manufacturer Packserv has forged a new strategic alliance with FP Developments, extending its global footprint and making its equipment directly available to customers across the United States.

Under the collaboration, Packserv’s Australian-built machinery will be represented and supported locally by FP Developments, giving US manufacturers access to a range of modular packaging solutions backed by on-the-ground engineering and service capability.

Packserv’s portfolio spans liquid filling and capping systems, conveying and container handling solutions, designed to support growing FMCG, pharmaceutical and cosmetics manufacturers. The machines are built around a modular, reconfigurable philosophy, enabling customers to scale and adapt their packaging lines as production requirements evolve.

The alliance is positioned as a values-led partnership, with both companies sharing a focus on practical engineering, quality manufacturing and long-term performance. For Packserv, the move represents more than geographic expansion, reflecting its ambition to take Australian manufacturing capability to a global audience.

“As an industry-leading packaging machinery designer and manufacturer, Packserv recognises that FP Developments is a strong strategic fit for us and the perfect company to align with as we expand into the US,” said Nathan Wardell, managing director and owner of the family-run business.

 

“Their machine quality, depth of industry experience and proven reliability align closely with our own standards. By expanding the FPD range and complementing it with solid technical support, we can deliver greater value to FMCG manufacturers globally.”

FP Developments CEO Jeff Denson said the partnership responds directly to customer demand.

“Packserv’s equipment aligns well with the type of systems our customers are looking for: proven, flexible and ready to be integrated into real production environments,” Denson said. “This [alliance] allows us to bring those technologies to the US market while continuing to provide the engineering support and long-term service our customers expect from FP.”

Packserv and FP Developments will jointly showcase their equipment at Pack Expo East in Philadelphia from 17–19 February 2026, where visitors to stand 1116 can learn more about the alliance and its approach to scalable, flexible automation for manufacturers.
