When it comes to packaging, we are ready to handle all your sourcing and operational needs —even in cases of changing or unforeseen circumstances. We monitor the economy, capacity, freight options and pricing, tariffs and trade, the labor market, and changing technology so you don’t have to. As a result, we can spot production and shipping bottlenecks early and stock up on your inventory. We can also supply our customers with stock packaging at a time when others are scrambling for supplies. And, if warehousing is a need, we can store your packaging until you need it.

We’ve been helping customers navigate major economic and societal changes for over 120 years: the Great Depression, two World Wars, recessions, the 2008 financial crisis, and now a pandemic. We have a proven track record because we deliver for our customers. We know navigating packaging suppliers and global logistics is complicated— and we’re committed to simplifying that process for you.

Your One-Stop Sourcing Shop

You can trust your business to one of the world’s largest purchasers of packaging. When you partner with TricorBraun, you’ll be working with a company with competitive pricing and purchasing power you can count on. This means a wide range of quality options, from glass to plastic, flexible to aluminum, sustainable materials, and a large selection of closures. Whether you need stock or custom, we’ll recommend and source the materials and components you need to meet your business needs. And when we identify a gap in the market? We’ll design and develop our own products or invest in new production or packaging solutions.

We Control Quality

In-House

At TricorBraun, our focus on quality is second to none. We have a dedicated team of in-house quality professionals, including a team of quality control engineers plus packaging subject matter experts to support quality, design, and engineering. This means our team members can be on-site at a supplier to troubleshoot and prevent problems or arrive at your facility to identify opportunities to increase manufacturing productivity. Plus, when you’re looking for a custom solution, our award-winning Design & Engineering team will keep a close eye on quality control while overseeing all the steps in creating your commercial-ready custom packaging.

Dedicated Support Across the Globe

Did you know that TricorBraun has team members on the ground all over the world to support you when working with our international vendors and manufacturing partners? We are truly global. Wherever you or your business is located—from North America to Europe to Asia, our packaging professionals are ready to procure your materials, support your manufacturing, and manage your packaging logistics. Our global presence allows us to provide you with dedicated customer service and support where and when you need it. It also enables us to see trends and spot challenges early. Being a truly international company enables us to forecast, support, and navigate through challenges to help ensure a sustainable supply of packaging for our customers.

Our strong supplier relationships are key to maintaining continuity of supply for our customers.

Our global supply chain network includes more than 1,000 domestic and international vendors along with contractual relationships across hundreds of brokers, forwarders and asset-based carriers. This offers us multiple options for procuring your packaging, even in the face of challenging freight and supply chain environments. In addition, our North and Latin American suppliers mean we can offer you packaging options that don’t require ocean freight. It’s a critical value-add while international sea lanes are crowded, and shipping space is historically tight. Count on us to support you with dedication and flexibility.
