Big, Bigger, Biggest

Our challenge is to continue our organic growth by attracting talented people who are willing to work hard and do what it takes to help our customers be successful. Our philosophy has always been that if we help our customers prosper, they will allow us to share in their continued growth.

Ruenzel—The flexible packaging industry can be characterized as offering custom products at commodity prices. Big box stores, globalization, etc. have brought this issue into sharper focus. As the squeeze on profits works its way down the food chain, our company is faced with the same relentless pressure to become more efficient and productive. At the same time, the demand grows for us to provide greater service and technical support for our equipment. There are many reasons for this, but we are taking on greater responsibility for operator training and equipment maintenance that traditionally was being done by our customers. We accept this, but it has a cost.
