Outsourced Manufacturing for the Food Processing & Packaging Industry
For more than a half-century EMI has partnered with leading food processing and packaging machinery companies to deliver exceptionally dependable and safe components that meet or exceed the USDA's sanitary requirements. In fact, our very first customer back in 1968 was a food processing and packaging company … and they're still a partner today!
Our intimate understanding of the industry, including manufacturing to USDA 3-A sanitary welding standards, allows us to create value at all stages, from material handling to processing through to final packaging. EMI's participation in the industry includes our own revolutionary EMI Deboner, which sets the industry standard for speed, hygiene and durability.
Nothing is more important than helping out partners make your next meal clean and safe, from harvest and processing all the way to your customer's plate.
