Top Flexible Packaging Converters

One flexible package printer looked across the Atlantic to save its shop.

ALMOST TWO YEARS ago, Lawson Mardon USA Inc., an Alcan Packaging Company in Bellwood, Ill. realized it was at a competitive disadvantage. Other companies in the flexible food packaging industry were beginning to deliver flatter, clearer products. Suddenly, some of Alcan's most important customers began scaling back their orders. To make matters worse, Alcan needed to increase capacity, but because of its location in a residential area, there was no room for expansion.
