More than 115 years of innovation in custom packaging
In a history that spans more than a century, American Packaging Corporation (APC) has been owned by only two families—the Kardons and the Schottlands. And in that time, our company has been led by only five CEOs. Our longstanding success as a custom flexible packaging supplier has been fueled by our commitment to providing more innovation, more quality and more responsive customer service, and driven by our strategic investments in the latest technology. Read Stan the Man to learn more about the foundation on which our company was built.
