In 2012, a BW Papersystems employee went into well-deserved retirement. Since Marquip's early beginnings, Dennis Rodewald had worked for the company in various positions, from designer to engineering manager, for a total of 44 years.

In 2000, when Marquip was bought by Barry-Wehmiller the company counted an installed base of 6,457 machines.

1998 was another outstanding year for Marquip. That year, the company launched a glue machine and a singlefacer and was now able to offer its customers a full corrugator line.

In the late 1970s, one of Marquip’s integrated U.S. customers asked them to build a machine for their plant in France.

1976 was a pivotal year as it marked Marquip’s transition from a custom machine supplier for the building products industry to a corrugator machine company.

Congratulations to the 50th anniversary of Marquip! BW Papersystems has taken this opportunity to browse the company archives, to study old articles and to interview many contemporary witnesses to find out as much as possible about the past 50 years.
