What CVC Technologies does

CVC Technologies, Inc. is a privately held manufacturer of pharmaceutical packaging and labeling equipment founded in 1979 and headquartered in Fontana, California, with a global manufacturing center in Taichung, Taiwan and wholly-owned subsidiaries in China, India, and a Nordic regional office in Denmark established in 2023. The company designs and builds complete bottling lines for solid dose, liquid, and powder products, including tablet/capsule counters (e.g., CVC 625x4 at up to 200 bottles per minute), liquid and powder fillers, bottle unscramblers, air rinsers, cappers, induction sealers, labelers, cartoners, and track & trace systems, plus a softgel encapsulation line (380SR to 990SR series) acquired through Changsung Softgel System in March 2023. Its proprietary Self Set™ setup software is protected by 5 US patents and is positioned as a usability differentiator, while equipment is certified to ISO 9001, CE, FDA, cGMP, and PIC/S GMP standards.

Revenue is generated through direct enterprise sales of capital equipment plus installation, training, factory acceptance testing, field service, and preventative maintenance, with quote-based pricing and no public price list. The company sells to pharmaceutical, biotechnology, nutraceutical, and food manufacturers across approximately 120 countries via a field sales motion anchored by trade show participation (PACK EXPO, CPHI, Interphex, Vitafoods, Interpack) and a "one-source responsibility" value proposition for complete packaging lines. Corporate ownership is private and undisclosed, with Kevin Chang serving as General Manager of the Taiwan headquarters.
