Hatboro, Pennsylvania based Acme Corrugated Box Company, Inc., which recently celebrated 105 years of business in the Philadelphia metro region, announced a continuation of its expansion with the addition of a second Isowa Falcon to their production capacity for 2025.
Unprecedented growth during the covid years drove a physical factory expansion and numerous capital investments. Notable equipment purchases include a full 110” Fosber corrugating line, a WIP high-rack vertical storage system, and a Harmax roll delivery system-and the first Isowa Falcon.
To shorten the timeline of orders through the facility, Acme has determined that a second Isowa installation would bring about a level of service unmatched in the regional marketplace.
Acme believes that by adding the second Isowa Falcon, as a complement to its existing machine centers, they will be one of the most effective producers of corrugated boxes in the nation. In mid-2023, the company added their first Falcon.
The right-handed 2023 Falcon has the same high speeds and short set-up times that Isowa is known for. Acme looks forward to having a second, multi-color Falcon to meet the ever-increasing requirements of Acme’s long list of clients.
