Glendale's food and beverage processors work inside a city with its own hard manufacturing history, but that history and today's plants aren't the same industry, and packaging equipment here still needs to answer to real production numbers. Glendale grew up around an airport that opened in 1923 and became the city's largest employer for decades, playing a key role in the early development of American aviation. During World War II, a foundry on San Fernando Road turned out airplane parts while the airport trained pilots and mechanics for the Pacific campaign. In 1961, a media company bought the closed airport site to build what's now a major entertainment-production campus, and the original Art Deco terminal still stands on a site now known for animation and film work instead of airplane parts. Food and beverage producers operating in Glendale today aren't chasing machining tolerances; they're chasing fill weights, seal integrity, and case counts that hold up shift after shift, and that's a packaging problem, not an aviation one.
Our Mars Series VFFS machines bag snack, beverage, and other food products at production speed, and our automatic case packers load and seal cases behind them for palletizing without slowing the line. You're the one who sets the fill weight and seal spec; matching a packaging line to it, run after run, is our end of the work. A case study on our site shows how one food producer scaled its output with our equipment, useful if you're sizing up a similar project. The California location page and food and beverage industry page add wider market context, while the vertical form fill seal and automatic case packers category pages answer the equipment questions. The solutions page covers how we plan a build for a food or beverage line like yours. We don't have a building of our own in Glendale, but our technicians still cover food and beverage plants across greater Los Angeles.
