Locations
From our Hayward, California, headquarters, we serve more than 600 customers worldwide. Our three state-of-the-art production facilities located in Los Angeles, CA, Hamlet, IN, and Monticello, GA use the industry’s most advanced equipment and systems—ensuring standardized design and consistency across every mold—to meet the demands of today’s high-speed automated lines.
Our national network has been strategically designed to provide you with a dual advantage. First, our large manufacturing and distribution footprint gives us access to a wider range of suppliers and partners – which keeps costs down and ensures more reliable sourcing. Second, because we’re literally just hours from anywhere, we’re always on the spot with local, personal service.
Our History
Norton Packaging’s history dates back to 1901. That same year oil was discovered in Texas, The Chicago White Sox beat the Cleveland Blues 8 to 2 in the very first American League baseball game, and to the relief of men everywhere, Gillette introduces the disposable razor. It’s safe to say the world has changed since then. But one thing hasn’t; out commitment to constant improvement and unsurpassed customer satisfaction.
Leadership
Sustainability
Responsible, sustainable sourcing and manufacturing are more than the right way to work. They’re the right thing to do.
We’re leading the way with such innovations as lighter pails that use fewer source materials while maintaining the necessary strength and durability. Many of our smaller pails are manufactured using 25% post-consumer resins. And we’re actively involved in the effort to create pails that can be safely and cost-effectively recycled—preserving natural resources, reducing landfill, and preventing harmful environmental impact.
Our Georgia manufacturing facility will replace power-hungry hydraulic equipment with clean-running, all-electric machinery. Additionally, we’ve strategically located many of our plants near rail hubs to take advantage of cleaner rail transport…thus reducing fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.
