About Us

Better Thermoformed Packaging Is Only the Beginning.

At Placon, our primary business is designing, manufacturing and marketing plastic thermoforms for food, retail and medical products. We’ve been around for more than four decades, and continue today as a market leader. Today we employ more than 300 people worldwide with locations in Madison, Wisconsin and Suzhou, China.

Sounds simple enough. But there’s more. Much more.

Our driving goal at Placon is to bring a comprehensive customer-centered approach to a complex industry. As the basis for this relationship, we offer time-proven and market-tested stock products, complete custom design and production services, and extruded rollstock material. We also offer the uncommon ability to provide insight, wisdom and experience to help, advise and assist.

With growing concern for the environment and marketplace compliance, we continue to lead the industry with our sustainable EcoStar materials, manufacturing processes, and the desire to be a responsible corporate citizen. We wouldn’t have it any other way.

At Placon, we do all this because we know we can make your products look their best in virtually any market or environment. It’s a lofty goal to be sure, but it’s one we continue to reach again and again, going all the way back to 1966.
