American River Packaging, which would become Package One, was established in Northern Califor- nia; the company specialized in corrugated packag- ing for industrial markets Icon Displays, producing wood crates for wine and permanent displays for retail, is established in 1987. St. Worth Container was established in 1994, fo- cusing on flexographic printing and corrugated packaging. Capital Corrugated was established in 1995, spe- cializing in flexo and single-face litho corrugated, as well as folding cartons. CalSheets in Northern California was established in 1998. The following year GoldenCorr was estab- lished in Southern California. Both companies spe- cialize in manufacturing corrugated sheets. Impact Manufacturing and Berry Pack were also established in 1998. Impact specializes in thermo- forming and rigid cartons and also opens a loca- tion in Dongguan, China. Berry Pack services fruit growers in Central California with corrugated pack- aging and plastic clamshells. Progressive Packaging Group, established in 2000, specializes in providing packaging for the agricul- tural markets of Central California.

“Through this journey, we’ve worked very hard to maintain the local, family feel at all of our loca- tions,” said Craig Reese, Golden West CEO. The company has provided packaging solutions to the wine, agricultural, and consumer products markets for seven decades, supplying corrugated boxes, folding cartons, rigid cartons, molded pulp, and other custom solutions. Golden West can trace its origins to the founding of Fibre Containers in 1952, the first Golden West legacy business to be established. Throughout the 1950s, while initially selling cor- rugated and folding cartons through distribution, Fleet-Fibre would eventually build a 250,000-square- foot manufacturing facility, which currently serves as the headquarters for Golden West Packaging Group in City of Industry, California. AllPak Container, specializing in corrugated for the agricultural markets in Pacific Northwest, was established in 1962 in Washington state. Packaging Innovators and Heritage, the next com- panies that would comprise Golden West’s portfolio, are established in Northern California in the mid- 1970s, both of which specialize in high-graphics corrugated packaging for wine, food and industrial markets.

Designed with input from HP Indigo experts, our Parts Washer (model number A-44213-A) was created specifically to clean parts from HP Indigo digital presses. It speeds productivity through an extra long flush hose for direct hands-free flushing of press parts. The Graymills abrasive resistant pump, twin filtration system, and rugged power-coated steel construction are up to the challenge of cleaning with imaging oil. DOES AN HP INDIGO NEED ITS OWN PARTS WASHER? They Thought So.
