Ever since Complete Design & Packaging was established 22 years ago in Concord, NC, its business of producing custom corrugated packaging and point-of-purchase displays has flourished due to its excellent customer service, superior quality, and expert investment strategies in the latest technology, all to deliver solutions to its nationwide customers and give the firm a powerful competitive advantage. Its 100,000 sq ft manufacturing site will become even more formidable when Koenig & Bauer delivers its Allpro 145 folder gluer by the end of the year. “Quick turnaround time is key for our customers,” says Keith Furr, general manager at CDP. “We were finding that our post press department was becoming a bottleneck and getting congested as our company grew. We needed a new high speed folder gluer to allow us to respond to our customers’ demands. This acquisition will enhance our existing capabilities. As part of our ongoing dedication to our customers, this significant investment underscores our commitment to delivering the highest quality solutions and meeting the fast turnaround needs of our client base.”
