ADCO Manufacturing is a leading U.S. manufacturer of cartoning machinery: horizontal and vertical end-load cartoners, top-load carton formers and closers, wraparound sleevers, tray formers, robotic loading systems, and custom solutions — all built in Sanger, California. ADCO recently joined the Massman family of companies.
ADCO sleevers handle single and multi-count products including glass bottles, cans, cups, tubs, trays, and flexible pouches, and ADCO cartoners are trusted across refrigerated and frozen foods, convenience foods, ready-to-eat meals, confectionery, personal care, and pharmaceutical markets. If your product goes into a carton, sleeve, or formed tray, ADCO builds the machine.
