MG America and its parent company, MG2 of Bologna, Italy, leading suppliers of processing and packaging machinery to the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, nutritional, food and general packaging industries, have announced several recent developments, specifically designed to expand and improve the companies' service offerings within their core markets.

MG America has made a number of enhancements to their headquarters in Fairfield, NJ, including:

• A Clean Room for trial testing of customers' products on MG2 Capsule Fillers, demonstrations of new technologies and hands-on capsule filler training to augment classroom-based learning.

Personnel additions include a new technician to cover the Midwest region of the U.S. and a local salesperson exclusively focused on the pharmaceutical industry in Puerto Rico.
