The Recipe for Sugar Coding: How PEZ Keeps Production Rolling with LEIBINGER

PEZ Candy is one of the most recognizable candy brands in the world, known for its collectible dispensers and playful presence on store shelves for generations. But behind the fun exterior is a fast-paced manufacturing operation where precision and reliability are critical.

At the company’s U.S. facility in Orange, Connecticut, more than 1.5 million tablets are produced every hour, with packaging lines reaching speeds of 350 rolls per minute. The plant includes both traversing and linear lines, all operating in a sugar-dusted environment where fine particles hang in the air—conditions that can be tough on coding equipment over time.

Looking to reduce downtime caused by cleaning, maintenance, and start-up, as well as improve print consistency across its lines, PEZ turned to LEIBINGER for a more reliable solution.
