FARMINGTON HILLS — Daifuku Webb Holding Co., a provider of material handling solutions, has changed its name to Daifuku North America Holding Co.

Daifuku North America oversees Daifuku America Corp., Jervis B. Webb Co., Wynright and Elite Line Service. Transitioning to the new brand is designed to add value to customers, according to Daifuku North America Holding Company’s Chairman & CEO Brian Stewart.

“Our North American customers will increasingly benefit from the industry-leading capabilities of the $2.5 billion Daifuku enterprise,” Stewart said. “The newly aligned Daifuku North America will enable us to provide an efficient and fully integrated range of products and services, and better access to the global resources and expertise of the Daifuku Group.”

While Daifuku North America will serve as the unifying brand umbrella, each company will continue to maintain its own name, customer base and product lines.

“We are extremely proud of the portfolio of innovations our companies have developed over the years,” Stewart added. “Our world-renown products are setting a new standard of excellence in the material handling industry.”
