Packaging for the Fresh Food Industry

You’ve got a business to run — and when it comes to packaging, you’ve probably heard every company say they’re “innovative,” “customer-focused,” and “high quality.” But what does any of that actually mean?

At Inline Plastics, actions speak louder than words. We don’t change course to stand out — we innovate to serve you better. From streamlined processes to smarter solutions, everything we do is designed to improve your day-to-day operations with clarity, consistency, and ease.

Quality You Can See

Packaging should do more than protect—it should sell. Our crystal-clear, shelf-ready containers showcase your product, build trust, and help drive sales straight off the shelf.

What Makes Inline Different

Family-owned since 1968 and now in its third generation, the business is structured to prioritize customer needs over investor demands. That independence fuels a deep commitment to the people behind the food — ensuring every solution reflects real-world challenges. From shelf impact to operational efficiency, packaging is purposefully designed to help food move, perform, and earn trust. And throughout every partnership, clear communication and honest guidance remain constant — even when that means recommending another path.
