El Paso's snack and candy manufacturers need packaging automation that keeps pace with Borderplex volume. A nut, candy, and snack manufacturer in the city traces its roots back to a 1907 nut company, still producing branded, private-label, and contract snack products from the city today. It sits inside the El Paso-Ciudad Juarez Borderplex, the third-largest manufacturing corridor in North America and a border trade route worth more than $105 billion a year in cross-border trade, where warehousing, packaging-materials, and logistics operations on the El Paso side support hundreds of manufacturing plants across the river. We supply Pack Series flow wrappers and Mars Series vertical form fill seal (VFFS) baggers for nuts, candy, and trail mix, and EliteWeigh multihead weighers and EliteFill auger fillers for portioned snack products, sized for producers running at Borderplex volume.

The Borderplex corridor isn't only snacks and candy. A farmer-owned dairy processor has supplied fresh milk and dairy products to El Paso since 1906, and a beverage bottler with roots in the city's early-1900s bottling operations still runs a production facility here today. A nut-and-candy line ships differently than a dairy line, and we fit the equipment to whichever one is moving out the Borderplex door. We fit fillers and checkweighers to dairy and beverage lines just as precisely as we fit flow wrappers to a confectionery line, sized to the product and the volume rather than a one-size machine pulled off a shelf. For manufacturers moving product across one of the busiest manufacturing corridors in North America, packaging equipment that keeps pace with the line is the difference between a shipment that makes its border crossing on schedule and one that doesn't.
