If you run a packaging or case-fulfillment line near Paine Field, you're competing for warehouse labor with the single largest employer in the region: a facility so large it holds the record for the biggest building in the world by volume, and one that alone accounts for close to a third of all jobs in Everett. Packaging automation is how a logistics or manufacturing operation nearby keeps output steady without out-bidding an aerospace-scale employer for hands. You know what it takes to staff a line near Paine Field; PLAN IT knows how to keep it packaged without an aerospace-sized hiring budget. PLAN IT's Mars Series VFFS baggers form, fill, and seal bags with minimal labor, and our automatic case packers carry that product through to a sealed, ship-ready case for the manufacturers and distributors moving product through Everett's industrial base.
Everett wasn't always an aircraft town. The city incorporated in 1893 as rail service reached the area, and for decades its economy ran on lumber and pulp mills, the last of which closed in 2012. That manufacturing lineage continues today at the Port of Everett's North Everett industrial park, home to an aerospace supplier alongside large-scale parcel and e-commerce distribution operations, high-volume, case-out warehouse work that depends on automated case erecting, sealing, and palletizing. PLAN IT supplies the machines plus the service and support to keep a bagging, stick-pack, or palletizing line moving across Washington, with in-stock equipment available when a production schedule can't wait.
