An Expanding Market for TORR Fillers is Water!

The following is a firsthand success story with one

Gladden Water Optimizes

Bag-in-Box Production with

TORR Web Filler 

Four years ago, Gladden Water’s Bob Jesperson and Paul Graves made the bold move to transition away from traditional bottled water to alternative bag-in-box package format. Motivated to make the new venture a success, they consulted with various industry suppliers and ultimately, TORR Industries for bag filling equipment. Once Gladden experienced firsthand TORR’s dedication to customers’ success, they decided TORR was the “perfect fit” to support Gladden’s boxed water product launch. “Tim literally treated us like we were the most valuable client,” Jesperson said, of TORR President Tim Orr. 

Various challenges ensued, including dozens of box design changes to enhance user friendliness along with learning how to fill flexible bags and ship boxed water successfully. Perhaps most challenging of all was explaining the new 5-gallon BIB package to some customers who had difficulty wrapping their head around it. Clever website graphics, a ‘how-to’ video post that went viral, and sales promotions that put product in customers’ hands to play with, all proved effective in making Gladden’s transition to bag-in-box a success. 

Demand has grown beyond Gladden’s home turf of Texas to include additional regions through direct shipment and distribution to both business and residential customers.  

The company’s next hurdle was to lower production costs. The purchase of a new TORRfiller™ 140W automatic, web-fed bag filler allowed Gladden to do so. “The bigger machine is quite a great machine. It has blown our expectations away,” said Jesperson. He added that with the new automated filler, product is even more sanitary because there is no human contact with the bag during filling or loading into the box. “Germophobes love us,” he enthused.   

As Gladden Water enters its fifth year in the boxed water space, new, differentiated products are in development to fuel growth and compete with lower cost rigid pack formats.  

TORR is proud to support Gladden as it continues to scale its business.
