Leading CPG, food and pharmaceutical packaging supplier Carton Service CSI<\/strong> is expanding their current liquid packaging production facility in Shelby, Ohio, with more investments.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019ve invested more than $10 million in new offset and flexo printing, new skiving and sealing equipment and a new packaging laboratory which includes liquid filling equipment for speed-to-market test purposes (testing of traditional and non-traditional uses of liquid-filled cartons),\u201d said company president Reid Lederer<\/strong>. \u201cThis makes us one of North America\u2019s few accredited printers and producers of liquid-filled direct contact gable cartons.\u201d<\/p>\n Lederer added: \u201cIt also makes us one of the most innovative companies because we create cartons for liquid contents no other company has attempted in North America like non-dairy milks, soaps, cleansers, lubricants, beverages and various alcohols. We also have the patents for these unique containers.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n Lederer said the school milk carton shortage witnessed in late 2023 indicates that there is a limited supply of North American printers and converters for liquid-filled cartons.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cWe would like to be the \u2019supplier of choice\u2019 for any liquids, whether traditional like milk, other dairy products<\/a> and juices or non-traditional like soap\/cleansers, drinking water and alcoholic beverages. With developing government restrictions on single-use plastic, we believe more companies are considering paper over plastic, and Carton Service intends to grow our Cartons4REarth<\/a> style as the brand of choice,\u201d Lederer said.<\/p>\n
