Morris Packaging adds capacity with new pouch machine

The company ordered a Hudson-Sharp 750SGBS Pouch Machine and B&B - MAF Side Gusseted Bag Machine SFB 8E –L as an expansion to its converting operations facility in Jefferson City, Missouri.

The announcement follows the completion of a 30,000 sq. ft. expansion, which is part of a larger development plan that, when complete, will span over 180,000 sq. ft.—making Morris Packaging's Converting Division one of the largest in capacity and providing it the capability to become a leader of flexible packaging in the United States.

The high-tech packaging facility, which started as a greenfield operation in 2014, has invested millions in state-of-the-art production technology and most recently, new machinery for press, lamination and converting capabilities. The division’s new assets will enhance Morris Packaging's abilities to better serve existing and new customers' needs in high-performance flexographic printing and creative flexible packaging, while becoming one of most innovative and fastest-growing convertors in the country.
