North America's leading nutrition-bar and protein-powder contract manufacturer operates a roughly 300,000-square-foot plant in Anaheim, with high-speed packaging lines and dedicated blending rooms. A beverage-packaging operation founded in 1937 also bottles here for multiple national drink brands, one of the largest independent contract bottlers west of the Mississippi, and a separate bottler headquartered in Anaheim runs one of just five production sites it operates across North America. A fourth Anaheim bottling plant recently changed hands to keep a beverage line running in the same city.

Our EliteFill auger and powder fillers handle the accurate, high-speed dosing that bar and protein-powder production demands, and our RotoBagger premade-pouch and stand-up bagging machines cover the flexible-pouch formats those same products ship in. Bar and powder lines run at a different fill speed than bottled-beverage lines, and we size the filler and bagger to whichever one a given Anaheim plant is running. Bottling lines built around glass and plastic containers add their own case-packing and checkweighing needs once product leaves the filler, which is where our automatic case packers and checkweighers pick up the line. Our case study on elevating co-packing with automated solutions follows a producer with a plant footprint similar to what's running in Anaheim today. Our powder and granular industry page goes deeper on how these lines are sized, and our solutions overview explains how we work with bar, powder, and beverage manufacturers across the California locations we serve, from a first machine through full-line integration.
