Kamps, Inc. Acquires Greenway Products & Services, LLC.

GRAND RAPIDS, MI, December 28, 2021 – Continuing to grow its footprint across the North-East region, national pallet recycler Kamps, Inc. (“Kamps”) acquired Greenway Products & Services, LLC (“Greenway”) on December 27. Greenway is a full-service pallet recycler and new pallet manufacturer with three asset-based facilities in the Tri-State area. The acquisition of Greenway reinforces Kamps’ existing footprint in the North-East, and builds upon the company’s core mission of providing customer-centric pallet solutions on a national scale.

Headquartered in New Brunswick, NJ, Greenway originated as a result of a merger in 2015 between two regional pallet recyclers: Pallets Unlimited and Generated Ltd. The merger created a single full-service pallet recycler with leadership that retains over 65 years of combined industry experience. Harnessing the capabilities of the two companies, Greenway quickly grew to become the largest pallet recycler in the tri-state area. Greenway has two locations in North New Jersey and one in Baltimore, MD. Greenway employs 225 individuals and operates 250 of trailers. All employees, including the leadership team, will stay onboard.


“Greenway has been a great Kamps partner for many years. Their uncompromising service and dedication to excellence has aligned our companies well.” Said Kamps, Inc. President, Mitchell Kamps. “Together, we now have 7 locations in the North-east region to service our local, regional, and national customers. Greenway has proven success in launching greenfield sites, for example the Baltimore, MD location. For these reasons, and many more, we look forward to expanding our horizon in the North-East with this outstanding team.”

“We are very excited to be part of the Kamps team.” Said Greenway President, Dominick Davi “Greenway has grown to become one of largest pallet recyclers in our region. With Kamps, we can be even better for our customers. Kamps’ national presence will benefit many of our local customers who have other locations throughout the United States.”

Greenway Co-Founder, Anthony ‘Tony’ Fabrizio, said “Kamps and Greenway are similar in our philosophy that customer service is most important to increasing growth. Joining Kamps will increase the diversity of our services to our customer.”

The acquisition of Greenway follows a series of strategic investments made by Kamps this year, with six total acquisitions made in 2021. Kamps views the growth in 2021 as investment made on behalf of their customers’ success. “At Kamps, we are redefining the pallet industry by delivering the value of a comprehensive national network through our specific brand of local, customer-centric, service.” Said Kamps, Inc. CEO, Bernie Kamps.

With the addition of Greenway, Kamps now has 48 asset-based locations across the nation. These locations recycle over 200 million pallets per year, while also offering comprehensive packaging solutions. Kamps’ national operations are supported by 3,000 employees and 4,700 trailers.

KUKA to Showcase Cobots for Medical Applications at AAOS Meeting

SHELBY TOWNSHIP, Mich., Jan. 28, 2025 – Targeting the reduction of work-related injury for healthcare workers and shortening time-to-market for medical device OEMs, KUKA Robotics will bring two advanced medical innovations featuring cobot automation to the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS) annual meeting in booth #540. The event takes place in San Diego, California, March 10-14, and attendees will see how KUKA’s LBR iisy cobot solution helps reduce the incidence of arm and shoulder injury to ultrasound technicians and sonographers. A second cobot demonstration will feature a KUKA Robot Development Kit using a LBR MED 14 R820 cobot that helps slash development time for unique medical device solutions.

Because of the repetitive nature of their work, sonographers and ultrasound technicians commonly experience musculoskeletal disorders such as tendonitis and rotator cuff injury from their work that requires them to apply pressure with abnormal arm and shoulder positioning. Using robot technology such as KUKA’s LBR iisy cobot, however, can take the strain off these technicians by precisely conducting these repetitive exams autonomously. Equipped with a Haply Inverse3 Hapatic Feedback Teleop Device and an OptoForce FT Sensor, the LBR iisy robotic arm can be controlled and manipulated to apply the proper amount of force to the imaging head for a proper reading.
