Food Packaging in Waterloo, IA

Custom food packaging must satisfy two simultaneous requirements: protecting the product's integrity and communicating the brand's identity. Our food packaging solutions are manufactured with FDA-compliant materials — food-safe PE coatings, soy-based inks, and barrier layers — that meet regulatory requirements for direct food contact while delivering the full-color print quality that distinguishes brands on retail shelves and food service counters.

Food Packaging Categories

• Bakery Boxes: Window-cut boxes for pastries, cakes, and baked goods with grease-resistant coatings
• Food Cartons: Folding cartons for cereals, snack foods, dry goods, and frozen food retail packaging
• Food Mailers: Insulated corrugated packaging for direct-to-consumer food delivery

Food Safety Standards

All food packaging materials meet FDA 21 CFR regulations for food contact. We offer aqueous coatings and PE (polyethylene) laminations that create moisture and grease barriers, preventing migration of inks or board fibers into food products. For allergen-sensitive products, we maintain documented material traceability.

Sustainable Food Packaging

Compostable and recyclable food packaging options include uncoated kraft board for dry goods, PLA-coated paperboard for compostable applications, and recycled-content board for brands committed to circular economy principles.
