Pearson Packaging Systems, a Spokane, Wash.-based manufacturer of secondary packaging equipment, expanded its end-of-line solutions by acquiring Moen Industries, a Los Angeles-based producer and innovator of high-performance packaging equipment and corrugated packaging designs. Michael Senske, president and CEO of Pearson Packaging Systems, will lead the company under the Pearson Packaging Systems name. Pearson will retain Moen engineering, service and sales support in the Los Angeles area.
"Pearson's acquisition of Moen Industries will translate into significant benefits for our customers," says Senske. "Moen Industries' patented tray former technology adds a new dimension to our current product portfolio, enabling us to offer the most complete range of integrated secondary packaging equipment available under one roof in the industry today. This provides buyers with the highest equipment effectiveness and the lowest total cost of ownership from streamlined products, service, parts and support."
