ALL-FILL ACQUIRES THE EXCLUSIVE RIGHTS TO REPACK LABELERS
In November of 2018, just after the Pack Expo International trade show in Chicago, All-Fill acquired the exclusive rights to RePack Labelers of Lansdale, PA. RePack, founded by Rick Surprise in 1994, was a small labeling company that was originally founded as a labeler repair business. "At the time, All-Fill had the potential to provide more machinery than ever before for a complete packaging line," said Kyle Edginton. "We were looking to make an acquisition that would allow us to manufacture more machinery that also fit perfectly with the fillers, checkweighers and VFFS machines that we were already making. Given that Rick Surprise was local, and we had a nice relationship throughout the years, RePack was the perfect fit."
Rick Surprise was integral in helping RePack relocate to All-Fill's manufacturing home in Exton, although the original plan was to keep RePack in place in Lansdale. Quickly, it became evident that manufacturing under the same roof was important for synergy, quality and maintaining lead times. Not only did Surprise assist with the move, but he was also very valuable in bridging the former ways of RePack and assimilating the manufacturing process of the labeling machine to All-Fill. Rick was always willing to help, in the field, on the shop floor or working with the assemblers, Rick passed down his intricate knowledge of labeling machines to the All-Fill team.
ALL-FILL LABELERS
In making the acquisition of the labeler, All-Fill was now positioned very nicely as a major player in the packaging machinery space who was capable of end-to-end integration. The thought process at the time was to leverage the existing All-Fill customers with a new product line and target RePack's customers with the stability of the All-Fill product line which had been well established since 1969. As part of the acquisition, All-Fill initially brought over 4 full-time RePack employees to work at All-Fill.
All-Fill now offers a wide range of labeling systems tailored to accommodate various budgets and production requirements. Our labelers are designed for seamless integration with our existing product lines, including auger fillers, vibratory fillers, checkweighers, and VFFS baggers. Our business model is robust, supported by five distinct product lines that can be sold individually or as a complete, fully integrated packaging solution. This integration allows us to provide versatile and efficient packaging solutions, as well as a unique distinction of being a one-stop shop for all of our customers packaging needs.
All-Fill is thrilled to expand our offerings to our valued customers and is more committed than ever to becoming your single source for all packaging machinery solutions. We will continue to provide the same quality product, service, and support you have come to expect through the years for your packaging solutions, parts and tooling, service, product testing, and more.
