Escaba Packing began operations in February 1998. Initially manufacturing packaging for the artisan sector, wooden crates, marketing packaging materials and buying and selling recycled cardboard.
As part of a machinery innovation program, slitters and die cutters are purchased to convert sheets into cardboard boxes, and the marketing of printed boxes begins.
After the sustained growth of these years and with volumes of 200 tons of recycled cardboard and box sales, the first flexo printer for printing boxes was purchased and we started the complete manufacturing at the plant.
An EMBA online gluing machine is acquired, providing greater installed capacity, and the implementation of internal policies, processes, and procedures begins to achieve better control of raw materials and continuous improvement of Escaba.
We are moving forward with the complete large format die-cutting line with a WARD machine and a Bostisch jumbo stapler; thus having an agricultural production line.
The company has achieved vertical integration, resulting in commercial synergy in paper corrugation. This has led to improvements in quality and service, as well as competitive pricing.
This includes some new packaging products (pallets, bags, trays and pads) and the importation of high-performance papers from the United States and Canada.
A 950m2 SingleFacer plant is installed in an industrial park for the manufacture of single-face paper rolls to supply packaging material to the furniture industry in Jalisco and neighboring states.
The finished goods warehouse (distribution center) is being expanded to offer our customers a QR code system for better control of inventory, batches, dates, and quality certificates. This expansion also includes the corrugated cardboard factory.
An investment is made in a 2,500cm jumbo slitter rewinder to manufacture rolls of Kraft, Bond and Coated paper, and with it a double blade sheeter to leaf different papers.
Investment is being made in a plant in the Guadalajara Industrial Zone to consolidate the three factories into a single industrial building. Additionally, automatic 3- and 4-color printing machinery is being acquired, increasing installed production capacity by 40%.
