Business Is Good

Aside from automating or replacing manual, old, tired practices within processing and packaging – our customers usually are contacting us because business is good.

By good, I mean growing, expanding, branching out into new products or packaging.

Our customers are expanding, quoting new business, can’t get machinery and equipment fast enough for a new or expanded project.

They’ve discovered the next best flavor or a byproduct of that they can now monetize to further increase revenue.

Regardless of growth origin or impetus for purchasing new machinery, our customers are often so excited that we just have to slow them down in talking to ensure we have the whole story.

They’re often in a hurry for a price for which they can get approval or use to shop and we certainly understand that.

We realize it’s well worth everyone’s time at this point to ask all the questions – how are you doing to today, what speeds, what’s the specific application, how long will you need it, etc.

We then match the machine and put man hours toward the machinery – mechanically, electrically, cosmetically, and pneumatically.

Our resources hit the project simultaneously – we have all the necessary parts, machines, and manpower to get you quality and complete lines fast.

We, of course, embrace the growth of our customers business and simply ask them for the time to discuss and ensure we do it right for them the first time.

This includes planning for the unknown.  We’ve recently primarily focused on providing new and like new machinery for rent.

We have what our customers want, when they need it, how they need it (customized by our engineering and tech team), for as long as they need it.

They return the equipment to us after their finished using it (if ever) – no questions asked.

Ultimately, we’re a resource to our customers – especially when they need to grow now and with reliable packaging and processing equipment solutions.

Human Touch

Today, some technology and websites make money all on their own.

You can browse inventory online, purchase items, and perhaps even get delivery via drone.  All with very little human interaction, your needs are met.

What we offer is extremely different. In fact, it’s very human. You might even say we don’t even sell machines… well at least not on their own for the most part.

Some may say I just need a price (on a machine).

Or I need to know how old it (the machine) is.

A robot or website could provide you with this information – It’s meaningless to what we provide.

We don’t provide much that’s not humanly or better yet expertly vetted and configured on your behalf.

From the people you talk to initially to the people who ultimately configure the machinery to run your specific application, there are many humans involved on the Frain side.

People will call and ask to speak with a sales person.  We instead put you immediately in touch with an engineer.

What good is a sales person if he’s selling you the wrong machine?

You can buy machinery online without talking to anyone and that could very well be the right solution for you.  Or not.

We offer a different option.

We offer an option of adding expertise and experience to quality machinery and the service of customizing it to your needs fast.

We rebuild, refine, recalibrate, and customize the machinery to meet your specific needs while bringing it up to date as certified pre-owned.

Our certified machinery goes through a meticulous inspection, is reconditioned to certification standards, and is backed by our warranty.

The machinery ships today as a 2017 customized and completely flipped machine or complete line.

Customers tap our engineers for the combined experience of over 100 years in the packaging and processing industry.

They tap our team of technicians who are equally experience and capable across all packaging and processing machinery categories.

They tap our inventory of thousands of machines, including complete lines.

All in all, you need more than simple answers to simple questions. You need experience and experts from the people at Frain who can quickly customize our inventory of steel to meet your needs.
