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.
