Increasingly, package production is being integrated with packaging in operations such as beverage lines where bottles and closures are molded and fed into the filling, capping, labeling and end-of-line processes. So too, packaging machine builders are growing through acquisition of upstream processes, such as bag making, film and label printing, and paperboard converting. Sometimes the systems are housed in separate plants and at other times they are integrated into packaging lines.
Whatever the scenario, it will pay to keep up with the latest innovations in converting and printing.
