Nosco has commenced carton and label production at its new 175,000sqft Packaging Innovation Center in Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin.
The facility provides redundant product capabilities that will expand Nosco’s efforts into ‘a new era’ of printed packaging, with continued focus on quality, innovation and growth for the healthcare industry.
Nosco president Craig Curran commented, ‘We recently began production, printing pharmaceutical folding cartons on our Bobst Expertfold 110. This week, we will start producing labels using two new HP Indigo 6K label machines.
‘Moving forward, the Pleasant Prairie facility will be home to production for all label and carton orders placed hereafter that were historically produced at Nosco’s Gurnee and Waukegan facilities, respectively.’
The Pleasant Prairie facility will also be home to nearly 300 of Nosco’s 700-plus employee owners. All other staff will operate out of Nosco’s existing facilities in Illinois, Texas, New York and Pennsylvania.
Mr Curran said, ‘Nosco continues to lead as a premier provider of printed packaging. Our decision to consolidate our workforce into this new world-class facility is a true testament to our people and our customers. Through this critical expansion effort, we will continue our commitment to quality and service – supporting customer orders in a seamless and timely matter.’
