C&J Industries’ 25,000ft2 addition includes a 12,000ft2 fully validated Class 8 Cleanroom currently housing 9 operating presses. By adding another 15 presses to the new Cleanroom and 5 more White Room presses, C&J is increasing capacity by over 100,000 hours of production.

This expansion is in response to increased demand from customers in medical, pharmaceutical, and other demanding markets. Customers value C&J Industries’ full-service support for plastic component and assembly production including engineering, in-house tool design and fabrication, and dedication to quality assurance and on time delivery.

“C&J offers the high level of support leading medical and pharmaceutical companies require, yet we maintain the strong personalized service expected from an ESOP company,” states Marty Matthews, director of sales & estimating. “This expansion enables us to undertake additional projects from current and new customers.”

In addition to the major increase in injection molding capacity, leading to more than 80 operating presses, the $6 million investment has increased the size of C&J Industries’ Quality Assurance lab, mold storage, and office space. C&J’s 240,000ft2 facility includes four Class 8 molding Cleanrooms, a molding White Room, a Class 7 assembly Cleanroom, two Class 8 assembly Cleanrooms, general molding and assembly areas, and a recently renovated 32,000ft2 finished goods warehouse and storage facility.
