Board Converting NEWS INTERNET DIRECTORY
Tasked with producing an array of cartons for some of the most recognizable names in the quick-serve restaurant, food, and food service markets, Fairless Hills, Pennsylva- nia based Tavo Packaging found itself needing to super- charge its pressroom and add capacity for its national and international brands. Its solution was to partner with Koe- nig & Bauer and invest in a new Rapida 145 large format press at its eastern Pennsylvania facility. David Taylor, CEO and VP of Sales at Tavo Packaging, along with his brother Jeff Taylor, President and VP of Op- erations, timed the press installation for earlier this year. It was in mid-2020 when twin issues prompted Tavo to seek additional capacity. First, Americans had accelerated their eat-at-home habits during the pandemic forcing food suppliers to package more of their goods. Secondly, the nation’s regulatory policies moved further toward the use of even more environmentally friendly products, which in- clude folding cartons.
