Hand Fabrication
Made by Hand
Some products are too sophisticated to run on automatic machinery and require hand fabrication by our specially trained employees. Our fabricators are skilled at manipulating flexible materials in ways that machines simply cannot.
This area of the plant is used to make two and three-dimensional, custom-shaped, flexible products like covers, liners, and bags; and allows us to work on prototyping for items that will eventually run on automatic machines.

Intake and exhaust covers for cargo planes.
Large 3-D, anticorrosion covers for gas turbines shipped overseas.

Warehouse
Safe Storage
Separate from our shipping department, our warehouse stores raw materials, and components.
In order to maintain organization, efficiency, and quality, access to the warehouse is limited to authorized personnel only. We use a picklist system to notify handlers what materials are required, which they then select and deliver to designated staging areas on the production floor.
Our Procedures
All materials are stored 18” from perimeter walls, and ample pest mitigation measures are in place and monitored regularly. Raw roll goods are stored in pallet racking as pallet loads, and materials returned from production are placed in rack-mounted metal nests for individual rolls accessed by our roll picker and up-ender. Component parts like valves and molded fitments are weight counted upon receipt and transferred into plastic bins for rack storage.
All warehouse staff members follow GMP & SQF guidelines and codes, as well as our SOP’s for carrier vehicle inspection, incoming materials staging, incoming inspection, and subsequent material tagging and movement to designated storage locations. All materials handling equipment is routinely maintained to promote safe and efficient operation.
Shipping
Outgoing Finished Product
We are a make-and-ship facility! Customer orders are processed daily in accordance with our standard operating procedures. Once the product is inspected, accepted, and released for shipment it moves to our shipping department, where nothing but finished product and palletization supplies are kept.
Packaging for Our Packaging
Each pallet load is prepped to withstand the rigors of transport using the appropriate packaging materials, pallets, banding, stretch wraps, corner boards, warning placards, and more.
Whether shipments are local or international, our packing process ensures that goods arrive in the same condition they left our facility in.
We inspect trucks prior to loading and photograph every load before the truck departs.
