There are a lot of factors that go into the value that automated packaging equipment provides. It’s important to consider upfront purchase price, of course, however the real performance indicators are the total cost of ownership and production efficiency over the life of the asset. When making an investment decision on machinery expected to have a 20+ year service life, considering all factors is that much more important.
Machines Are Robust and Designed with the Application in
Mind.
Initial cost can be a primary determinant when operators are choosing shrink wrappers, but some fail to consider the total cost of ownership. A machine that comes in with a lower upfront cost usually also means lower capability and durability, and it will likely need more repairs and ultimately earlier replacement than a more robust model. Texwrap backs our machines and includes a 10-year, unlimited-cycle limited warranty with every purchase. Most Texwrap machines have far exceeded that mark, with some still in commission 30+ years after the initial installation.
Efficiency plays into the total cost as well. Many machines with a smaller price tag cost less because they are designed in a one-size-fits-all model that is difficult to modify for specific applications. These machines can be more cost-effective, but they will not provide the accuracy and efficiency of a more complete solution. Texwrap understands the unique requirements of the food and beverage industry in the U.S., and our machines do as well. This allows us to deliver a solution specifically for you that will elevate your overall capabilities.
Products Are Designed, Fabricated, Assembled, and
Serviced in the U.S.
Texwrap’s business model is another source of added value. Our entire operation is conveniently located in central Missouri, which gives us easy access to customers’ businesses across the U.S, and a representative is never more than a phone call and a quick drive or flight away.
Texwrap designs, fabricates and assembles each and every Texwrap part. This means we control every aspect of our quality. Not only is the quality important, but also the availability. With an in-house fabrication department, we can assure our customers the quick turns they require. Operating fully domestically also ensures that issues associated with international commerce will never affect our customers. Shipping delays, material shortages, tariffs, and other complications are simply non-factors for us.
Customers Have Access to the Entire ProMach Family of
Expertise.
Working with a Texwrap representative does not just unlock a wealth of knowledge about shrink wrapping and bagging solutions, it also makes the entire ProMach portfolio of solutions and expertise available to you. Many companies that add automation into one area of their end-of-line packaging will eventually want to add more. A Texwrap representative can equip any operation with a standalone machine, cellular integrated system with machines from a few ProMach brands, or complete turnkey packaging line. ProMach machines cover the entire gamut, and all the machines work well with each other to build the ultimate packaging solution.
