I will try and post the pictures later.
From what I saw yesterday, they were installing the interior walls. The interior studs were made of metal. They were using some type of 4" wood strips on the interior walls instead of sheetrock.
IMO, the equipment would be the last thing to go in.
I worked for a flexible packaging company from 23 years that provided plastic packaging for snack foods, meat products, hand soaps/sanitizers and several commercial applications.
Some of our customers were General Foods (coffee), Digiorno (filled pasta, Foodsaver (pouches for vacuum packaging) and Sani-/Fresh (hand soaps used in bathroom dispensers)
Companies producing and packaging food or beverages are usually regulated by the FDA. Those facilities have to be sanitary and hospital clean. Some even have full time on-site FDA inspectors.
Depending on the size or volume of the packaging equipment, I would think it more cost productive to do everything at one facility.
If it's a small operation, some of it can be done by hand. Most of the newer packaging equipment labels the finished product after it is filled and capped.
