Hayward sits at the southern edge of the East Bay, part of what's often labeled northern Silicon Valley, and that geography carries a genuine market for packaging equipment underneath the tech and biotech headlines. A candy manufacturer has produced confections here for generations, a charcuterie and cured-meats producer runs a full processing plant nearby, and a soft-drink bottler and a national beverage company's production and distribution center round out the city's food and beverage base. Genomics and pharmaceutical manufacturers, plus an industrial-technology company with a local manufacturing footprint, add a health and life-sciences layer to that same East Bay corridor.

For the candy and confectionery producer running lines here, our Pack Series horizontal flow wrappers and automatic feeding systems wrap and pack individual pieces at the speed retail confectionery demands, while our Mars Series vertical form-fill-seal (VFFS) baggers handle stand-up bag formats for bagged candy and snack lines. The charcuterie producer and beverage bottlers nearby round out Hayward's case for flow-wrap and bagging equipment suited to high-speed, high-mix production. Genomics and pharmaceutical manufacturers add a health-industry angle too, where checkweighers and metal detection systems catch fill and contamination issues before product ships out to labs and clinics. A candy line that's run for generations and a beverage bottler on the same corridor don't share a recipe. They share a changeover clock, and ours is built to keep up with both. We keep no address anywhere in Hayward or the East Bay. What reaches your California plants instead is in-stock equipment and service out of Toronto and Tampa.
