Better Thermoformed Packaging.
A Mission That Started in a Basement.

Placon's primary business is designing, manufacturing and marketing plastic thermoforms for packaging food, retail and medical products. We're committed to a customer-focused approach, and to building relationships based on honest business practices. Our mission is to provide customers better thermoformed packaging and value-added services than our competitors and to be an outstanding corporate citizen.

From (Below) the Ground Up. Four decades ago, an engineer named Tom Mohs built a small thermoforming machine in the basement of his Wisconsin home. It wasn't long before his engineering know-how and entrepreneurial spirit moved Placon out of the basement and into the forefront of the plastics industry. By 1971, Placon had built its own 6,000-square-foot building and had grown to 18 employees. Before its 10-year anniversary, Placon yearly sales had reached $1.3 million.
