| THEMA | Beschreibung |
| TEXT | THE RIEGEL SACK COMPANY has been established in business at the northwest corner of Washington and Morgan Streets, Jersey City, New Jersey, since 1900. Its line of manufacture forms one of the city's unique industries, and its plant comprises a large brick four story and basement building, wherein the processes of bag making and bag printing are extensively carried on. The building is erected after the most approved plans of the mill insurance experts
and is of the "slow burning" type ; it is furnished throughout with automatic sprinkling devices and equipped with
high-power fire pumping service and reserve water tanks and is electrically illuminated, and driven with a modern and complete set of individual motors. The "raw materials" used are burlaps and cotton sheetings. The first named
fibre is woven in India whence it is directly imported by this concern, and then made up into bags for a variety of purposes, notably for the packing of fertilizers, salt, plaster, heavy chemicals, etc. The cotton sheetings are mainly made in southern mills and are, in turn, consumed in the production of bags for an endless variety of uses and in a great range of capacities. A large proportion of the cotton cement bags used in this country are made by the Riegel Sack Company. The admirable transportation facilities of Jersey City, at the termini of all the great railroad systems of the country and the principal trans-oceanic and coast lines, gives this concern access to the chief domestic and export markets, besides affording due opportunities for the proper entry and receipt of its import business. The general offices of the company are at 261 Broadway, New York City, where a large office force is employed. |
