PARTNERSHIP


“It’s our knowledge of the market and bar-none the best technical support in our industry.
It's not just the material for us, but the whole package.”

Greg Beauregard, SEE Regional Sales Director, West Coast

Designed specifically to optimize the efficiency of Kagome's operations, CRYOVAC® brand vertical form-fill-seal systems facilitate fast and easy changeover of food products and accommodate a wide range of pouch sizes. As we look to the future, the two teams naturally partnered to develop and implement SEE Precision Yield Optimization designed to help Kagome tighten their package weight performance with no labor or process changes, delivering quantifiable savings in product loss. When we apply our end-to-end philosophy of innovative materials, automated equipment, unmatched technical expertise, and digital solutions, our businesses are better positioned to keep operating today, tomorrow, and beyond.
