<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nFor over 35 years, Praxis has provided high-quality packaging solutions to its customers, with a commitment to quality, innovation, and customer success. The strategic combination with ACI further enhances Praxis\u2019 customer offering by broadening Praxis\u2019 geographic footprint into the Southeastern United States, expanding its capabilities and market segments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Located in Lakeland, Fl, ACI provides contract packaging of medical devices, over-the-counter (\u201cOTC\u201d), consumer, and health and beauty products, as well as domestic manufacturing of NIOSH surgical N95 respirators. The acquisition adds over 160,000 sq. ft. of manufacturing and warehouse facilities, bringing Praxis\u2019 total footprint to nearly one million sq. ft, following a 125,000 sq. ft. expansion in Grand Rapids, MI earlier this year. Customers of both companies will benefit from a unified focus on operational excellence, process improvement, and enhanced offerings designed to meet the growing needs of the healthcare and consumer markets.<\/p>\n\n\n
