Carton Service CSI, a prominent supplier in the packaging sector, is set to expand its liquid packaging production facility in Shelby, Ohio, US.
The expansion, to be operational later this year, involves an investment surpassing $10m in printing equipment, sealing machinery, and a new packaging laboratory.
This strategic move aims to address the growing demand for innovative liquid carton solutions and to bolster the company’s workforce by 20%.
Carton Service CSI president Reid Lederer said: “This makes us one of North America’s few accredited printers and producers of liquid-filled direct contact gable cartons.”
The expansion will enable Carton Service to cater to a diverse range of liquid packaging needs, including nondairy milks, soaps, cleansers, lubricants, beverages, and various alcohols, with patents for these unique containers already secured.
Lederer also addressed the recent domestic school milk carton shortage and the company’s ambition to become the ‘supplier of choice’ for liquid packaging.
