Placon

6096 McKee Road • Madison, WI 53719-5114 United States

Founded in 1966, we have been a family-owned business for over 57 years, with our headquarters located in the wonderful city of Madison, Wisconsin. We are a leading designer, manufacturer of stock and custom designed plastic thermoforming, and injection molded packaging. We work with a broad range of customers throughout the world in the food, medical and retail market space with a primary focus on the North American markets. In 2011, we were the first thermoforming company to open an on-site recycling center that allows us to bring in PET recycled bottles and thermoforms to create our EcoStar® post-consumer recycled PET material. We believe in sustainability so much that it is part of our company vision statement. Each day our team is driving to create, innovate and collaborate with our customers to create simply, better, packaging that will highlight their products within the food, retail or medical markets.

Containers

Placon designs and manufactures stock and custom thermoformed and injection molded blisters, clamshells, trays and other packaging for food, retail, and medical markets that are sustainable and functional. Placon's offers sustainable, thermoformed packaging innovations such as Crystal Seal® Cravings™ product line made with recycled PET material and tamper-evident features. Other thermoformed containers include the Fresh 'n Clear® product line, including bowls and trays. The Fresh 'n Clear® four-compartment insert tray is made from EcoStar post-consumer recycled PET, is completely recyclable, and replaces the unsustainable flexible pouches in regular salad kits.
