Pro Mach expands horizontal form, fill, seal solutions with acquisition of Mahaffy & Harder Engineer

Date: February 21, 2006

CINCINNATI - Pro Mach, Inc. announced today the acquisition of the product line and certain assets of Mahaffy & Harder Engineering Company, a leading provider of horizontal thermoform, fill, seal and tray sealing packaging equipment.

With the acquisition of New Jersey-based Mahaffy & Harder's product line, Pro Mach adds capabilities for designing and manufacturing equipment that produces high quality vacuum, modified atmosphere and ambient packages. Mahaffy & Harder's product line, which accommodates a wide range of flexible and semi-rigid packaging materials, provides reliable, high-speed, high-performance solutions for products across numerous markets, including medical devices, fresh and processed meats, convenience foods and consumer goods.

Mahaffy & Harder will become part of Pro Mach's Ossid division, located in Rocky Mount, North Carolina. Ossid, part of Pro Mach's Primary Packaging Business Unit, is a leading provider of leak proof packaging and labeling solutions for case-ready protein products.

"We're pleased to add the Mahaffy & Harder product line to our wide-range of primary packaging solutions," said Bud Lane, President of Pro Mach's Primary Packaging Business Unit. "It complements our solutions offered by Ossid and provides us with opportunities to strengthen our business in existing markets, such as protein products and expand our business in new markets, such as medical device and related health care products."
