About HUSKY

The company was founded in 1953 by Robert Schad, a German immigrant to Canada. The Husky was originally a small machine shop, not related to the plastics industry.

Husky injection molding systems, hot runners and controllers are unmatched in providing attractive, cost effective packaging solutions for food, drink and consumer goods including buckets, tubs and containers, plastic drinkware, transparent rigid walled containers and more. The company is a world leader in lightweight and consumer packaging, helping manufacturing customers reduce plastic resin costs and minimize excess waste while producing packaging that is also more sustainable.

Husky injection molding systems lead the industry in maximizing productivity, minimizing part variation and reducing maintenance to ensure the lowest total cost of production.

The latest generation HyPET®5e, HyPET®5e + and HyPET®HPP5e family of systems maximize production efficiency with capacities of up to 110,000 preforms per hour, while reducing part variability and increasing part quality. Expect them to deliver millions of hassle-free, repeatable cycles, faster and more efficiently than any other Husky system in history.

The HyCAPTM4 system provides best-in-class beverage closures. With cavitation options from 24 to 96, compatibility with all the latest neck finishes and support shelf diameters, as well as new tethered closure designs, HyCAP4 is the best choice for reliably closing bottles and beverage containers.

The Hylectric® system has been regularly improved for over a decade. This high-performance platform for forming the highest quality parts ensures maximum productivity, excellent reliability, reduced maintenance and longer uptime.

The advanced HyperSyncTM system is the industry’s first fully integrated injection molding system for specialty packaging. It can contain special closures thanks to Husky’s revolutionary eIMCTM closure technology, as well as thin-walled packaging with multi-layer technology, including innovative decorative features.

The Husky NexPETTM system is flexible, future-proof and well suited to beverage applications. With a large vertical mold distance of 60mm, it is ideal for sports drinks, juices, edible oils and ready-to-drink teas, and provides additional space to accommodate threads up to 40mm in diameter. In addition, the NexPET mold features specially designed hot runners that enable mold changes up to 25% faster – ideal for frequent, shorter runs and multiple SKUs of preforms.

To ensure that customer equipment is consistently operating at the highest levels of performance, reliability and durability, all PET systems and closures are automatically protected with Advantage + EliteTM real-time proactive monitoring.

From its beginnings, as a Canadian company, Husky Injection Molding Systems, Ltd. has grown to become a global leader in the plastics industry with over 35 locations. Machines, molds, hot runners, auxiliary equipment and integrated systems are built or sold on almost every continent, supporting customers in more than 140 countries. Husky is there wherever you need equipment, knowledge, services or support.
