Jomar

What Jomar does

Jomar Corporation, founded in 1968 by Joseph and Mary Johnson and headquartered in Egg Harbor Township, New Jersey, is the world's leading manufacturer of injection blow molding (IBM) machinery, a position it has held across more than half a century — more than half of all IBM machines in use worldwide were built by Jomar, and its installed base exceeds 2,500 machines across 65 countries. The company designs and builds IBM machines ranging from 21 to 175 tons of clamp tonnage that produce plastic bottles and containers from 1 ml to 2 liters for pharmaceutical, healthcare, personal care, beauty, food and beverage, and household-products customers. Its core technical differentiators are a proprietary vertical plastifier that reduces energy consumption while preserving a small footprint, and the IntelliDrive servo-driven hydraulic system (co-developed with Bosch Rexroth) that delivers 40–50% energy savings and 1.8-second dry cycle times; newer models add Allen-Bradley CompactLogix controllers with up to 250 stored process parameters and remote diagnostics over EtherNet/IP. The product line spans the IntelliDrive Series (Models 85S, 135, 175), the TechnoDrive Series (Models 45, 65, and 65 PET), and the entry-level Model 25, supplemented since 2022 by exclusive North American distribution of AUTOMA by MAGIC extrusion blow molding (EBM) machines and, since April 2025, by in-house mold design and fabrication.

Jomar generates revenue primarily through direct sales of capital equipment (quote-based, multi-year enterprise sales cycles) plus a substantial recurring services layer: tooling and turnkey project work, per-cavity tool refurbishment priced at $450–$750 per cavity, training, spare parts, preventive maintenance, and on-site service visits billed at $1,000 per eight-hour day plus travel. Distribution is hybrid — direct sales from New Jersey and a UK regional office, complemented by a global agent network that handles 80%+ of customers outside the United States; marketing is anchored by major plastics-industry trade shows (K Show, NPE). Customers include Merck, Gerresheimer, P&G, Unilever, Avon, Crayola, Gerber's, and Goya. The company has been a wholly-owned subsidiary of Indel Inc. (formerly Inductotherm Industries) since 1978, has 101–250 employees, and does not disclose revenue; it is privately held with no external funding rounds, implying growth has been financed through operating cash flows and parent-company support.
