Pack Expo, Take Two. We enjoyed seeing so many familiar faces and making new friends in Philadelphia at Pack Expo East in February, and we're looking forward to heading west next month for Pack Expo Las Vegas.

Will you be there? If so, we encourage you to visit Booth #S-6923 in The Brand Zone to hear our exciting equipment and product news. If you're not going to be there, please get in touch for the scoop - and ask me for some product samples, too.

Compliance Packaging: Here We Grow Again

There's just no stopping our new product development team. They've been busy developing yet another new unit dose package aimed at improving patient adherence. And like the others, this new product has already tested to F=1 for child-resistant and senior-friendly effectiveness. We'll be announcing it soon - and you can see it in person at Pack Expo Las Vegas. Visit us in Booth #S-6923 to learn about AlertPak, ComplyPak, MedLock, the MedLock EZ family, and other packages our team has invented over the years for our pharmaceutical customers.

Equipment Investments: Two New Presses

We're always investing in new equipment. We do it to add new features, increase speed and capacity, and sometimes simply because an old machine is past its prime. We're particularly excited about two new pieces of machinery installed at Colbert Packaging this year.

A new Heidelberg Speedmaster XL 106 printing press was installed in our Elkhart, Indiana, plant in April. The 40-inch offset press prints six-color processes and coats paperboard in a single pass. Plus, it's really fast. It can run at speeds of up to 18,000 sheets per hour, and it has many special features that increase production efficiency.

Our Lake Forest flexographic packaging facility has a new press that's about to go into full production. It will be used for pressure-sensitive roll label applications. Stay tuned for more information, and stop by Booth #S-6923 to learn about our labeling capabilities.
