Following Strong 2010, Hoffer Plastics Purchases Four New Presses

The new presses, which represent an investment of $1.6 million, include three 470-ton Demag Systec injection molding presses and matched Wittmann-Battenfeld robots and an extended daylight 600-ton high-speed KraussMaffei unit. The machines highlight Hoffer's long-standing commitment to provide its customers with the most efficient and highest quality plastic injection molding services in the industry.

Though suitable for a number of injection molding applications, the new presses will be used primarily for packaging customers in the food, health and beauty and pharmaceutical segments such as Procter & Gamble, Kraft and Johnson & Johnson.
“We tend to upgrade our injection molding machines every seven or eight years in order to keep pace with the latest technology,” said William Hoffer, president of Hoffer Plastics. “We've earned a reputation for consistent quality and these new presses will allow us to continue to meet our customers' high expectations.”
