Under this partnership, Flexi-Vel will represent all of Parkinson’s brands: Dusenbery®, Marshall and Williams, Parkinson Winders, and Key Filters.
Flexi-Vel is an established representative in the converting industry for the Mexico/Central America regions, serving 30 companies from all over the world.

Says José Velasco, owner of Flexi-Vel: “The addition of Dusenbery slitters, Key Filters screen changers, and other equipment from Parkinson Technologies will allow Flexi-Vel to offer a unique package of first-class equipment and technology to our customers.”
“Mexico and Central America are exciting, evolving markets in the converting industry and are seeing increased demand for flexible packaging and labels.
