Topline Products Expands Manufacturing Capabilities with Installation of Blow Molding Equipment at Michigan Plant
Additional technology offers customers a North America and China option to support global color cosmetics launches
Wayne, NJ, October 28, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Topline Products Company Inc., a leader in innovative cosmetics packaging and products, today announced the installation of state-of-the-art blow molding equipment at its Topline Michigan plant in Dundee, Michigan. The new manufacturing capability will enable Topline to produce bottles and other components for mascara and lip gloss color cosmetics products, offering its international customers both an Asian and North American base for product launches. Topline produces cosmetics packaging and products at four manufacturing sites in China.
“By installing this new technology at our Michigan plant, we have enhanced our product profile in color cosmetics manufacturing,” said Charles Chang, Topline president. “We will now be able to serve our customers more responsively and efficiently with the capacity to offer mascara and lip product launches in China or North America. The new installation also reinforces our overall strategy toward continued growth as a worldwide leader in cosmetics packaging.”
The state-of-the-art, Novapax blow molding equipment was purchased from Risdon International’s Middletown, New York, manufacturing facility and was delivered to the Topline Michigan plant in July. The injection blow molding equipment will produce bottles for mascara and lip gloss cosmetics products. Additional assets purchased from Risdon will operate decoration and automated wiper insertion functions. The Michigan plant already has the capability to manufacture caps, rods and wipers.
After the color cosmetics components are fabricated in Michigan, they will be shipped to Topline’s Reynosa, Mexico, plant for final assembly. Topline opened its Reynosa facility in May.
The Michigan plant, formerly Motor City Plastics, was purchased by Topline in June 2010 and has been producing compacts and caps using injection molding technology. The company plans to hire additional personnel for the new blow molding operations, according to Jim Adams, Topline vice president of manufacturing.
