Comar Plans Major Expansion in Vineland, New Jersey

06/04/2020
Comar, a premier healthcare plastic packaging, device and component supplier, plans a major capacity expansion of its Buena, New Jersey plant operations by building a new offsite location in Vineland, New Jersey.

The new 159,000 sq.ft. facility in Vineland, only a 20 minute drive from the current facility, will be ISO 13485 certified, cGMP compliant, FDA registered, and house injection molding and assembly and finishing machines, with additional capacity to support long-term growth. The expansion, which is scheduled to be completed by March 2021, will also enable Comar to refresh its Buena facility and increase capacity to better serve our customers.

Mike Ruggieri, CEO at Comar, said, "This investment builds on our new West Coast facility – Rancho 2.0 – and represents another exciting milestone for our organization. Our Buena plant has provided the engine for much of our growth over the decades. This next critical step of adding footprint, infrastructure, and capacity, will ensure that we continue to delight our customers and drive our growth moving forward."

Linda Kershner, Buena Plant Manager at Comar, said "In addition to better serving our customers by bringing additional production capacity, the expansion in Southern New Jersey will create a better experience for our employees who are central to delighting our customers. I am extremely excited about both our current Buena and new Vineland facilities. The new Vineland location allows us to create a best-in-class GMP compliant work environment right from the start and at the same time gives us the opportunity to refresh and optimize our Buena site."

Comar, headquartered in Voorhees, New Jersey, hosts nine strategic manufacturing and distribution locations and employs a host of rigid plastic packaging technologies including injection molding, injection blow molding, injection stretch blow molding, and extrusion blow molding which are complemented by a full suite of value-added service offerings. Comar is majority owned by Morgan Stanley Capital Partners.
