History

After purchasing its first thermoformer in 1960 as Caribbean Manufacturing, in 1970 the company was incorporated as Key Packaging. Since that time Key Packaging has become an award winning leader in the thin gauge custom thermoforming industry. Our 65,000 sq. ft. facility includes a state of the art controlled environment for medical packaging molding. Our award winning engineering staff has the experience to solve the toughest package development challenges. The manufacturing process utilizes thin gauge custom thermoforming equipment run and maintained by a highly trained, experienced, and diverse work team, many of whom have been here over twenty years.Continual housekeeping and maintenance monitoring assures high quality plastic packaging product. Our manufacturing schedule allows us the flexibility to run samples and overtime on Fridays, and to run shifts on the weekend, assuring on time deliveries. A friendly, knowledgeable customer service team awaits your call, fax or email. In addition, we have EDI capabilities. Quality, service and competitive pricing combine to create Key Packaging as the "Value / Preferred Supplier."

Advantages of Thermoforming

Custom thermoforming offers economical piece part and tooling costs when compared to other plastic packaging processes. Lead times for thermoforming are much shorter than for injection molding, and the tooling offers some flexibility in part redesign. All materials used are recyclable, promoting sustainable packaging. Because the parts can be designed to nest into each other, warehouse material handling and shipping costs can be minimized. Clear or custom color is available in most substrates.

Awards

Key Packaging has won numerous awards for creative cost efficient designs, including a "World Packaging Award" from IOPP for medical packaging. We treat each project as an award winning opportunity to satisfy your needs, proving consistently that a good design can sell more of your products.
