Founded: 1966

Workforce: ~ 500

Company Working: Placon Corporation, established in 1966 by Tom Mohs in Madison, Wisconsin, is a privately held, family-owned enterprise renowned for its innovative and sustainable plastic packaging solutions. Specializing in thermoformed and injection-molded packaging, Placon serves diverse sectors including food, medical, and retail markets, with a primary focus on North America. The company's commitment to sustainability is exemplified by its EcoStar line, which utilizes post-consumer recycled PET materials. In 2011, Placon became one of the first thermoforming companies to establish an on-site recycling facility, processing millions of recycled PET bottles and thermoforms daily to produce EcoStar material. Placon operates additional manufacturing facilities in West Springfield, Massachusetts; Elkhart, Indiana; and Plymouth, Minnesota. The Madison facility encompasses a 340,000-square-foot corporate space housing advanced thermoforming and extrusion capabilities, an in-house design and tooling center, and ISO 13485 certified cleanrooms for medical packaging. Furthermore, the company acquired Barger Packaging in 2011 to expand its medical packaging offerings, Plastic Packaging Corporation in 2014 to enter the injection-molded container market, and Brookdale Plastics in 2016 to strengthen its retail and medical packaging segments.
