Pueblo sits along Colorado's southern Front Range manufacturing corridor, and demand for packaging automation here follows the same industrial base that earned the city its nickname, Steel City. A steel mill remains one of the city's top employers with about 931 jobs, and Pueblo's industrial park is home to a wind-turbine-tower manufacturing plant that was, at nearly 700,000 square feet, the largest facility of its kind in the world when it was built. An HVAC-equipment manufacturer employs another 760 people in the city, and a large solar farm just outside town, with roughly 500,000 panels across 1,000 acres, adds a renewable-energy angle to the same corridor.
That heavy-manufacturing base is what our case erectors, case packers, and PackMaster cobot palletizers are built for, moving finished components, from steel products to turbine parts to HVAC units, off the line and onto pallets at volume. Southern Colorado's food and beverage producers draw on the same corridor, and we supply Mars series vertical form-fill-seal (VFFS) machines and automatic case packers for those lines too. Pueblo's steel and turbine crews know heavy fabrication, and we know how to get your finished product off the line and onto a pallet just as fast. The HVAC plant and solar farm on Pueblo's edge don't include a PLAN IT facility either. We supply and integrate packaging automation for manufacturers across Colorado, backed by service and support after every installation. The Colorado location page, food and beverage industry page, case study on scaling food production, VFFS and case packer equipment lines, and solutions overview show what applies to a Pueblo-area production run.
