GLS ... Here We Grow Again!

MINNEAPOLIS – July 1, 2005 – For the second time in less than six years, we’re expanding our building square footage. In 1996, we opened our Brooklyn Park facility with 63,000 square feet. As our business grew, so did our need for space. In 1999, we added an additional 55,000 square feet. With this latest addition, our facility will grow to 161,000 square feet on almost 15 acres. This fall, upon completion of the expansion, we’ll be hosting an open house. Hope to see you there!

 

 

New Folding-Carton & Die-Cutting Capabilities!

Not only are we expanding our square footage, we’re also expanding our capabilities. Recently we added a Bobst Fuego 110 Folder-Gluer that allows us to expand the packaging services we offer our clients. This latest generation folder-gluer allows for the production of crash-lock bottom, straight line and 4-corner boxes offering clients a wide-range of options for promotional and product packaging.

Another new equipment purchase was the Sanwa TRP-1060-SE Die-Cutting Press. This die-cutter operates at high speeds while offering tremendous reliability and maintaining registering accuracy. Compared to other presses, the Sanwa has minimal nick levels thanks to the patented gripper bar registration system and smooth sheet transportation.

Both of these equipment purchases reflect our goal of providing continuous improvement in our systems and services for our clients.
