US: Inline Plastics Corp. announces expansion of facilities

Inline Plastics Corp. announces the addition of three new thermoforming lines, plus the expansion of its facilities, in response to the continued growth of their innovative food packaging products.

Installation of new large platform, roll fed thermoforming machines and their attendant support equipment is under way at all three of Inline Plastics’ manufacturing facilities. The installation of the first new production line was completed in June at the company’s Shelton, CT facility. The Salt Lake City plant is installing its new production line in October, and the McDonough, GA plant will be installing a new line in January of 2014. In addition to the new production lines Inline has added 42,000 sq. ft. of manufacturing and warehousing space to the Georgia facility and 150,000 sq. ft. to the Shelton, CT headquarters to be used for manufacturing, warehousing, and offices.

A significant investment was also made in additional production tooling to run in the three new machines.

The newly acquired production capacity will enable Inline to continue to fulfil the demand and expand their popular Safe-T-Fresh® product line, as well as introduce new grab-and-go foodservice containers.
