Clear Lam Packaging Unveils PrimaPak Co-Packing Facility and Innovation Center
Clear Lam Packaging announced plans to open a new 25,000-square-foot co-packing facility and innovation center at its Elk Grove Village, Ill., headquarters and manufacturing operation in spring 2015. Clear Lam invested $2 million in equipment and technology to launch the new operation, which will employ 23 individuals and produce PrimaPak packaging for test markets, regional rollouts, seasonal items and ongoing national distribution.
The co-packing facility will specialize in dry, free-flowing products using Clear Lam’s revolutionary PrimaPakvertical form-fill-seal system with combination scale weigher. It will start with two state-of-the-art production lines with a combined production capacity of 20 million units per year. Additional lines will be added in the future. Clear Lam also will assist on an as-needed basis with the sourcing and purchasing of raw materials, shipping, freight and logistic services and inventory and warehouse storage of materials and findings.
