K&R Equipment, Inc. is an OEM and was established in 1980 by Fred Krueger and Larry Roberts. Two products, the Ultrabelt and Ultra Sharpener, launched the operation and were sold to companies producing corrugated board and corrugated shipping containers. Those two products are still being sold today.
The company facility is located three miles northeast of downtown San Jose, California USA. 

San Jose is regarded as a premier region for technology development and is sometimes referred to as the South Bay or Silicon Valley. San Jose is located about fifty miles south of San Francisco and fifty miles east of the great Pacific sea.

In 1984, K&R Equipment, Inc. developed an automatic machine for loading stock tab forms. It was called the Drop Packer and is regarded as one of K&R's first successful major products. This product is utilized by companies as a machine to automate bulk packaging.

Today, K&R Equipment, Inc. produces large-scale automatic machinery for companies that make corrugated shipping cases and a variety of companies that have bulk packaging requirements.

Careful evaluation of customers' production needs is a policy that has made K&R a candidate for bidding projects involving commercial use. Importantly, K&R's process of designing and building machinery that encompasses practical and current technology serves for optimizing machine performance as well as dependability. K&R's workforce continues to produce reliable automatic machinery to all parts of the world.
