3C! Packaging strengthens footprint in the US Midwest

3C! Packaging manufactures a broad range of primary and secondary printed packaging components, primarily for pharmaceutical industry customers. The company has steadily expanded its range of services and capabilities as it has bulked up its roster of packaging equipment with new presses, feeders, folders, insert placing machines and facilities. 

2014 marked 3C! Packaging’s 35th anniversary and saw it introduce enhanced printed foil lidding for blisters, as well as printed foil sachets.

The Evansville operation is 3C! Packaging’s second such venture after the company opened a north-east corridor showroom in Philadelphia in 2010. That facility has since expanded to include full design/graphic capabilities, a sample-making area and an integrated customer service department offering first-hand experience of 3C! Packaging’s day-to-day operations.

Sparky Cullen, vice-president of finance at 3C! Packaging, said: ‘We sensed an opportunity in the Midwest to successfully expand our operations and realize increased market share.

‘In Evansville, we found a city whose business-friendly infrastructure and skilled workforce made for an attractive base for Midwest operations.’
