Sealed Air Corp.'s Cryovac brand food packaging reached a milestone with the installation of its 4,000 rotary vacuum chamber system. This new machine was installed for longtime Cryovac customer Cargill at the company's Dodge City, Kan., facility.

More than 50 years ago, Cryovac revolutionized food packaging with the introduction of its first rotary vacuum chamber system, a breakthrough that redefined efficiency, safety and product integrity. Since then, the brand has continued to lead the industry with innovations that enhance productivity, improve safety and help customers reduce operational costs.

The installation of the 4,000th rotary marks not just a production milestone, but a testament to enduring performance. It replaces a unit that reliably operated for 40 years, an achievement made possible by the precision engineering and manufacturing quality of Cryovac systems, along with the technical expertise of the service team working in close partnership with Cargill’s maintenance staff.

“Our partnership with Cryovac is built on mutual trust and a shared vision for efficiency, safety and innovation,” Jeremy Burr, Cargill plant manager said. “Cryovac is invested in our success, which shows in the level of dedication and service they deliver.”

“We are focused on creating value for our customers, not just today, but for the long term,” Sealed Air president and CEO Dustin Semach said. “We are honored to partner with Cargill and customers across the entire sector, providing them with packaging technology that’s engineered to perform, built to last and serviced by the best in the business.”

Today, Cryovac rotary equipment operates on six continents, supported by an extensive network of technical service and product experts ensuring customers everywhere benefit from decades of proven innovation and trusted expertise.

“When you install a Cryovac system, it's about more than buying a machine — you are stepping into a legacy of service, reliability and innovation trusted across the globe,” Joe Lambert, Sealed Air’s North America food vice president and general manager said. “As we approach our 85th anniversary, we remain committed to meeting the food industry’s evolving needs, drawing on decades of experience to deliver innovative equipment, advanced materials and a service team dedicated to keeping our customers running.”
