LLC <br /> - Crimped End Coin Wrappers <br /> From the original "Manchester 44" machines that produced tubular coin wrappers, Coin- <br /> Tainer has engineered a larger, faster, production machine, named the "Coin-Tainer <br /> 144". In the process the company reduced the amount of paper needed for each <br /> wrapper by 20%, created the only "easy open tab" making the product more user- <br /> friendly, and increased production beyond the capability of the traditional design by <br /> 600%. <br /> - Flat Coin Wrappers <br /> The original machines utilized to create these items operated at a speed of 150ft per <br /> minute. The machines formed and glued wrappers vertically using a water-based <br /> "Elmer's" type glue. Coin-Tainer has altered the design to form and glue vertically at a <br /> speed of 400 feet per minute. The company is now able to produce thousands of flat <br /> wrappers in packaging that is 40% smaller than the original equipment was able to <br /> produce. The change in packaging creates savings in labor, corrugated, freight, and <br /> warehousing. <br /> - Currency Bands <br /> The majority of currency band presses move freshly printed paper through dryers that <br /> "curl" the ends of the bands. Coin-Tainer has engineered a process in which printed <br /> bands lay flat in sheets to cure; this results in a perfectly-flat finished product. <br /> Additionally, the new process saves in packaging and corrugated costs and space <br /> requirements. <br /> - Currency Bands on a Roll <br /> Expanding on technology brought a new product to Coin-Tainer's offering. Currency <br /> bands on a roll reduced paper needs by 15% per item and increased the speed of <br /> production by 25% over similar items. This product is currently used by Walmart's <br /> internal accounting department nationwide. Coin-Tainer remains the only manufacturer <br /> ever capable of producing currency bands on a roll. <br /> - Raffle Ticket Rolls <br /> Twelve years ago, when asked if they could produce raffle ticket rolls, Coin-Tainer set <br /> out to not only produce a product that was already in the marketplace, but to strive to <br /> create a new, more efficient process for a higher-quality finished product. Today, thanks <br /> to time and financial investments, the company is able to produce ticket rolls 4 times <br /> faster than any other manufacturer, making them one of the only viable partners for big- <br /> box retailers. This particular equipment took 3 years to get up and running; it took 1.5 <br /> years for research, finding companies to partner with capable of designing special <br /> components, and another 1.5 years for fabrication, integration and testing. <br /> Due to the fire and current building and manufacturing circumstances, Coin-Tainer's product <br /> offering has changed: <br /> - Crimped End Coin Wrappers & Flat Coin Wrappers <br /> Because the fire decimated production capabilities for Coin-Tainer, the company now <br /> purchases coin wrappers from an external vendor under a non-compete partnership <br /> agreement. With this relationship, Coin-Tainer is able to service the same set of <br /> customers as they did pre-fire. <br /> 5 <br />
