  • Employee Spotlight | United States | General Films

    At General Films, we celebrate our most valuable assets – our employees. EMPLOYEE SPOTLIGHT EMPLOYEE SPOTLIGHT Chyanne Lawson Converting Day Crew Chyanne’s background of working at Family Dollar prepared her for her job at General Films. As the assistant manager, she was a multitasker doing whatever needed to be done to do her job well and to the best of her ability. Responsibilities included the register, stocking shelves, working with associates, and handling customers’ needs. She learned to thrive in a fast-paced, ever-changing work environment. Chyanne began her career at General Films in the fourth quarter of 2021. She works on the converting lines day shift. She enjoys not only the crew and the environment but also the four 10-hour workdays that offer three days off. That schedule, as well as opportunities to work weekends, gives her and her growing family much-needed flexibility and comfort. What initially made Chyanne feel GF was the perfect place for her was the onboarding, orientation, and training. She was very impressed with how thorough the training was, how well it was explained, and how she never felt hurried or rushed. Chyanne completed her training feeling completely comfortable, confident, and ready to get started on the job. “I love and respect the people I work with and for at General Films. The flexibility of work options, the care, understanding, and the hard-working attitude is a joy to be around.” She really likes the multitasking and diversity of the job. You never know what you will be doing each day. She, as well as her shift workers, know all the responsibilities and tasks that are required to keep the line running, and that allows the team to fill in as needed. The best part is that we have each other’s backs. If someone is down or is experiencing issues, we rally around to support and encourage them. The camaraderie and culture at GF are amazing. Chayanne also serves on the Sunshine Committee, which supports and encourages her fellow workers and the community. “I feel we understand each other, we are all involved in the task at hand, and we are equal players for our team, company, and our customers.” Chyanne is a very busy mom of four kids and one on the way! Her two girls are active in cheerleading, and she enjoys attending and watching her kid’s events. During quieter times, which is not often, she enjoys just hanging around the house entertaining family and friends as well as enjoying cool evenings around their backyard fire pit. BACK

  • Bag-In-Box Success Story: Anderson Erickson Dairy

    Anderson Erickson Dairy discusses how their relationship with General Films is based on mutual respect, problem solving, and quality customer service. ANDERSON ERICKSON DAIRY Success Story ANDERSON ERICKSON DAIRY FINDS BUSINESS RELATIONSHIPS NOT JUST BUSINESS AS USUAL When you ask me what I would tell others about General Films, I'd say they have good quality products, they listen to the customer, they help us solve problems, they react quickly, and their prices are fair. I like to say that this is a business relationship that has also become a great business friendship. So says Craig Colonno, Purchasing Director & Ice Cream Mix Manager for Anderson Erickson Dairy in Des Moines, Iowa. Mr. Colonno recalls his first encounter with General Films over 15 years ago: "We were dealing with another supplier that couldn't make delivery on some of the plastic fluid bags we use. Even though we weren't one of their regular customers, General Films got us out of a bind for several months by supplying bags that worked with our filling equipment. Frankly, I don't know what we would have done without them stepping in." "We returned to our regular supplier out of a sense of loyalty, but a few years later we went back to General Films for our bags. Soon after, we worked closely with them to develop an automated web filler that would meet our specific needs. You might say we participated in the design of that filler and General Films was great to work with. They took me to see various fillers at other facilities and the prototypes they developed. Then they listened to what I had to say and acted on it." Although everyone's prices for plastic bags have gone up recently, General Films has remained very competitive and informative on all increases. They've had to raise some prices over the years, of course, but we feel they have been fair about it. " " Craig Colonno, Purchasing Director & Ice Cream Mix Manager for Anderson Erickson Dairy Keith Nichols, Century Furniture’s Plant Three operations manager "In the same way, if I have a problem, they listen and quickly act to help us get back on track. Occasionally you have a panic situation as if we landed a new account that wants to get started tomorrow and requires a lot more bags than we have on hand. We can't tell a new customer they have to wait a week so that we can stock up on bags. But I can call General Films and they respond quickly to our needs; that's the real key. And from a quality standpoint, we haven't had any issues I can think of for the past several years." The Anderson Erickson Dairy was founded in 1930 and continues to be family owned and operated. The third generation of family owners continues to live by the values of founder Iver Erickson while continuously investing in new technology to produce a full range of Quality You Can Taste dairy products.

What Is Sheet Molding Compound? Sheet Molding Compound (SMC) is a ready-to-mold glass-fiber reinforced polyester. SMC is used primarily in compression molding for diverse and demanding commercial and industrial markets such as automotive, construction, petrochemical, food & beverage, and recreational equipment. SMC is both a process and reinforced composite material. This is manufactured by dispersing long strands of chopped fiber, commonly on a bath of thermoset resin. The longer fibers in SMC result in better strength properties than standard Bulk Molding Compound products. What Are The Advantages of SMC? SMC benefits from a very high volume production ability Excellent part reproducibility Cost-effective as low labor requirements are needed for production Industry scrap is reduced substantially Products produced are much lighter than typical metal parts A higher level of flexibility than typical parts SMC can also be easily produced at a high volume as the molding process allows for a shorter production cycle The SMC Production Process Using a compression molding press, the paste reservoir dispenses a measured amount of specified resin paste onto a plastic carrier film. This carrier film passes underneath a chopper which cuts the fibers onto the surface. Once these have drifted through the depth of resin paste, another sheet is added on top, which sandwiches the glass. The sheets are compacted and then entered onto a take-up roll, that stores the product while it matures. Using consistent heat and pressure, the SMC evenly spreads to properly fill the mold and create complex parts that are lightweight, cost-effective, durable, and lightweight.
