Core offering

Cousins Packaging designs and manufactures a full range of stretch wrap machinery, including semi-automatic and fully automatic turntable and rotary arm pallet wrappers, plus custom engineered in-line systems. The portfolio spans four machine families — Turntable Semi-Automatic, Turntable Automatic, Rotary Arm Automatic, and Mobile Wrappers (The Traveler) — built around the patented A-ARM cut-and-hold technology. All products are engineered and assembled in-house at the Mississauga, Ontario facility and sold exclusively through authorized regional distributors.

Product overview

Cousins Packaging is a full-line manufacturer of stretch wrap machinery founded in 1992, offering a comprehensive portfolio of semi-automatic and fully automatic pallet wrappers. The product line centers on four main categories: Turntable Semi-Automatic (1100-S, 2100-SRT, Switch, Pilot), Turntable Automatic (3200 platform, 3300-A/CTA conveyorized, LP/HP-SWA A-Arm), Rotary Arm Automatic (4100-FA ULTRA, 4100-35FA, Hercules, 7100-OHA conveyorized), and Mobile Wrappers (The Traveler). Key differentiating technologies include the patented A-Arm system for hands-free cut-and-hold operation and the Super Rapid Thread II film carriage. The company also offers custom engineered solutions including conveyor systems, top sheet applicators, and environmental packages (wet, freezer, dusty) for specialized applications. All products are manufactured in North America at the 60,000 sq. ft. Mississauga facility with in-house panel design, fabrication, painting, machining, and assembly capabilities.
