Engineered for savings, built for performance
Yakima, WA – September 2, 2025 — Kwik Lok will demonstrate the new 872 Plus at the International Baking Industry Exposition (IBIE) in Las Vegas, NV from September 13-17, 2025. Customers can see the new 872 Plus in action at Kwik Lok’s booth #2117.
The new 872 Plus is designed to maximize savings while delivering powerful, consistent performance. With fewer parts, reduced maintenance, and higher output, it offers greater value with less effort. For decades, earlier 872 Plus models have set the standard in the baking industry for unmatched reliability and longevity. This next generation model builds on that trusted legacy; enhancing efficiency while driving total cost of ownership lower than other industry alternatives.
“Our customer’s feedback was the spark behind this innovation. We took this feedback and developed the new 872 Plus using the latest technology to fulfill customers’ needs for a reliable and cost-effective machine for the baking environment of today,” said Ryan Towry, VP of Engineering and Innovation.
In addition to unveiling the new 872 Plus at IBIE 2025, Kwik Lok will showcase a complete range of bag-closing solutions, from semi-automated to fully automatic machines designed to meet the needs of bakeries of all sizes. Visitors can explore Kwik Lok’s line of sustainable closures, which help bakeries comply with packaging regulations while advancing their sustainability goals.
