Contract packaging is an entirely different animal than CPGs’ and brands’ in-house packaging operations, and the industry has a unique set of needs centered around extreme variability.

We’ll hear from contract packager MSI Express on their unique suite of packaging equipment needs, and how robotics are uniquely flexible enough to fill them in ways that mechanical installations often cannot.
