Transparent Container Company

Transparent Container is much more than a manufacturer of transparent and paperboard packaging. We are, in fact, a full-service product packaging company that increases our client's ability to sell more of their branded products at retail.

Our products and services help customers improve their financial performance by increasing sales, decreasing costs, and improving packaging efficiencies. How do we do this? Our product line offering, packaging development process and reduced time to market can help improve your product launch time line and retail sell through while our inventory programs,TransACCESS™, TC|360™ and field assessment programs improve your productivity.

We have dedicated the last fifty years to building an organization that understands your packaging needs. We strive to accomplish what’s best for your brand, the consumer and the retailers that sell your products.

We are packaging specialists who enjoy making your products look good. Let us do that for you.

Mission Statement

Transparent Container Company, Inc. holds a Mission to be the supplier of choice for providing thermoformed and fabricated plastic packaging along with related products and services. We service our customers by delivering what they want, when they want it, without incident. We provide our employees a clean and safe work environment with opportunity for personal development and success. We are committed to innovation, continual improvement and the long term growth and prosperity of our Company.

Sustainability continues to be a major topic within the packaging industry. How “green” your package is can make the difference between getting your product on the retail shelf or not. Consumer demand for more environmentally friendly packaging is growing, and that means more and more major retailers are putting pressure on their suppliers to improve packaging sustainability. While cost, appearance and product security will continue to be important considerations, so will the environmental impact. That’s good news for the environment and at the same time, it puts a great responsibility on all of us to continually be innovative and pro-active with sustainable product design considerations, material choices and manufacturing techniques.

Closed Loop

While some manufacturers may consider the “cradle to grave” impact of a product’s life cycle, we believe the key to the sustainability of plastic packaging is a “closed loop” process of continual recycling that keeps plastic out of landfills. Ideally, as with aluminum cans, used plastic packages should be recovered and turned into tomorrow’s packages. But because there will always be packages that don’t make it back into the recycling stream, we also need to make sure our packages are safe for the environment no matter where they end up.

One way to foster green packaging is to avoid over-packaging. Over-packaging increases the energy used in manufacturing and the energy used in transporting a bigger and heavier package. Keeping the material used to a minimum not only lessens the environmental impact of each package, it also reduces the cost of the package. And yes, packaging can be reduced without sacrificing security. 

Experience Counts

Transparent Container’s success has been built on extensive industry expertise across multiple market segments. Our design techniques, material neutrality and manufacturing capabilities allow us to provide the flexibility and responsiveness you need.
