Technology-intensive manufacturing focuses on the integration of technology to manufacture products for use in servicing and supporting other industries. It can include, for example, the production of packaging for other goods, electronic and communication devices to aid in the transfer of information or concrete or metal products.
Throughout our history, J.G. Petrucci Co. has been involved in the design and construction of manufacturing facilities that employ complex and sophisticated processes for the manufacture of products intended for both the consumer and industrial markets. These have included products as varied as spices and seasonings, polymers, wash down equipment and industrial valves, “hardscaping” products and many others.
