Munters Group AB Launches Speria as Commercial Brand for FoodTech Business Munters Group AB launched Speria, a new commercial brand for its FoodTech business area. Speria brings together FoodTech's technologies, software, and services into one connected offering, strengthening its capabilities as a global end-to-end technology and services partner across the food supply chain. Speria delivers operational intelligence solutions for food systems, helping producers and integrators run more efficient, predictable, and productive operations. Speria builds on Munters' role inside mission-critical operations, where controllers, sensors, and gateways run and monitor farm-level operations, capturing real-time data directly from operations. This data is sent to optimization software and expert services that plan and coordinate operations across the supply chain. Together, these capabilities connect planning, execution, and performance, turning fragmented data into clear, prioritized guidance and impact. FoodTech currently operates through five brands: MTech Systems for supply chain optimization software, and four differentiated controller brands, Hotraco, Rotem, InoBram and AEI. With the launch of Speria, FoodTech's products and brands will be brought closer together to enable a more connected and unified offering. Over time, MTech Systems will transition into Speria. Speria will also serve as the commercial brand for integrated offerings, meaning solutions that combine products and services from more than one brand. The four controller brands will continue to operate as product brands under the Speria umbrella. What customers buy and the teams they work with in Munters FoodTech does not change. There are no changes to the legal structure, governance, or customer agreements as part of this launch. Annuncio • Apr 29
