About the company
Machinery Manufacturing
Innovative Factory Solutions and Industrial Automation for manufactures of Building Products, Pulp and Paper, Factory Housing, Advanced Composites, Aerospace, Automotive, and Space Vehicles.
Starting in 1917, Globe developed as an engineering and manufacturing company supplying machinery for the Door and Plywood Industry. As the Composite Wood Panel industry developed in the 1960s and 1970s, Globe was involved in producing lines for some of the early particleboard, MDF and wafer board plants. As these industries matured, Globe’s involvement in the development of the North American OSB and Engineered Wood Industry stimulated growth in the company in terms of size and technical capabilities. Globe’s history includes leading the development of process technology areas such as Plywood Manufacturing, Wood I-Joists and other Engineered Wood Products, Panel Finishing and Coating, and integrated Automated Storage & Retrieval. These activities are significant worldwide, with major installations in North America, Europe, South America and Asia.
Today, Globe is a premier supplier of custom designed, built, and fully integrated equipment and systems for industries that include plastic composites, automotive, aerospace, pulp and paper, and building products. Recent developments in high capacity, automated manufacturing systems include Wind Turbine Blade Automation, Out-of-Autoclave Composite Press Systems, and Ultra-high Pressure Presslines for Plastic Armor
Much of the company’s supply is built to suit our customer’s particular preferences, and Globe specializes in developing new solutions to meet each new challenge. This is reflected in our design capabilities. More than 20 percent of Globe’s staff is directly involved, on a full-time basis, in machine design and development.
