Company History:

Anchor Packaging began operation in 1963 as a converter of plastic film.  In 1978, Anchor expanded its operations to include thermoforming, sheet extrusion, machine tooling and fabrication and blown film.


In 1985 a new manufacturing facility was constructed in Paragould, Arkansas. Due to increased production demands, it has been expanded a number of times, and now covers 240,000 sq. ft.  In 2008, the facility will be expanded again to 310,000 sq. ft.  A second 160,000 sq. ft. production facility in Marmaduke, Arkansas was completed in 1990.

 

Over the years, several acquisitions, including Innovative Plastics, the MicroLite division of Amoco, and the BonFaire division of Placon Corporation have allowed Anchor to expand product offerings.

 

Our acquisition of Borden Chemical's film operation in Argentina has allowed Anchor to broaden it's exposure in South America, adding another 50,000 sq.ft of production.

 

Our 680,000 sq. ft. Distribution Center in Paragould, warehouses all of Anchor Packaging products, and provides a single centralized ship point.

Today, Anchor Packaging facilities exceed 1.1 million sq. ft. of production and warehouse space.

 

Anchor Packaging, with headquarters in St. Louis, Missouri, has become a major integrated producer of plastic packaging for the foodservice retail and food processor industries both nationally and globally.
