Monoflo International is putting the finishing touches on another facility expansion — this time, the construction of a new mold storage building.
Last week, the company moved into the final stages of construction at their manufacturing facility in Winchester, Virginia, putting the roof on a new 4,900 sq. ft space adjacent to their manufacturing building. The new addition will include a 60-ton crane to handle molds weighing up to 120,000 lbs. and will be outfitted with new equipment that will improve and expedite the maintenance process of these molds.
The new space will free up the areas that were previously used to store molds when not in use, creating more manufacturing floor space for new machines and robotics, increasing overall production capacity and decreasing lead times. The company plans to begin moving into the space towards the end of the month.

Over $2 million invested towards sustainability initiative
January 2019, Winchester, VA
Monoflo International, Inc. just expanded its reprocessing and recycling operation to include a new, state-of-the-art reprocessing facility at their corporate headquarters in Winchester, Virginia. The manufacturer of reusable transport packaging invested over two million dollars in infrastructure and machinery to expand its recycling capacity, nearly tripling the amount of scrap material the company can process. The new facility dedicates an additional 57,000 square feet to reprocessing and recycling broken or obsolete high-density polyethylene (HDPE) products.
In addition to preventing tens of thousands of pounds of plastic from ending up in a landfill, Monoflo’s “buyback” program offers customers a way to sell off reusable pallets and distribution containers that have reached their end-of-life, regardless of the product’s original manufacturer. Additionally, Monoflo’s in-house process offers complete separation from dirt, debris, metals, paper, and adhesives, which results in a higher quality material that the company then uses to manufacture new product.
