Custom sleever for Beech-Nut

When Beech-Nut Nutrition Co. needed packaging for a new line of “steam-cooked mini meals” for toddlers, the challenge was to find a reliable way to handle the product prior to putting the two 6-oz tubs into a paperboard sleeve.

The solution was custom-designed sleever equipment from Graphic Packaging Intl. that wraps two plastic food tubs at high speeds. Paperboard sleeves for the products are produced at GPI’s carton manufacturing plant in Valley Forge, PA. With one company responsible for the sleever machinery as well as the paperboard sleeve, Beech-Nut gains greater accountability plus improved efficiency in both production and pricing.
