The Baking Company of Ukiah, a Division of Pamela’s Products, in Ukiah, California, specializes in the production and packaging of natural and gluten-free cookies, crackers, snack bars and baking mixes for retail and foodservice customers. In selection of its packaging (both clear and foil-based roll stock film from multiple materials suppliers), the company emphasizes eco-friendly options, such as recycled and recyclable materials printed with soy inks.

Some weight control and product damage difficulties were occurring on the bagging line for cookies and crackers. Alana Rouse, vice president of operations for Pamela’s Products, says, “Through some fellow cookie and cracker manufacturers, we were hearing good things about the Model XYS08 continuous-motion vertical form/fill/seal bagging equipment from Triangle Package Machinery Co. coupled with the Yamato ADW-A-0314S scale from Yamato Americas. We decided to evaluate the equipment in terms of usefulness for our operations.”
