LOS ANGELES, Nov. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Pasaca Capital's portfolio company KraftPal Technologies, a global leader in sustainable pallet solutions, celebrated the grand opening of its new production facility in Ontario, California, on November 14. This state-of-the-art automated plant, equipped with KraftPal's cutting-edge Palletonator technology, has an annual production capacity of up to 1.5 million eco-friendly corrugated cardboard pallets. This achievement represents a substantial advancement within the logistics industry, as it facilitates the reduction of carbon footprints and promotes the adoption of sustainable practices.
