Precision Molding = Improved Productivity
Indepak’s extensive design and manufacturing capabilities often lead to better solutions. For example, one of the largest forestry management companies in the country was looking for a seed plug tray that would allow its workers to plant tree seedlings more efficiently.
Indepak’s engineers developed sophisticated tooling with integrated water lines that cooled sections of the mold to allow for more consistent material distribution. This ingenuity allowed us to create the small, tapered cavities complete with a rigid flat bottom that could be sliced off prior to shipment.

When our client experienced challenges with the quality and availability of standard nursery trays, Indepak was enlisted to develop a more viable and reliable solution.
By re-engineering the drainage channels and other elements of the tray, Indepak’s design team was able to distribute material in a more efficient manner – resulting in a tray that functioned better while requiring less material. Not only did the new design require less material, but it could also be processed more quickly which led to lower costs and more timely deliveries.
