Industries Served

Yes — a single qualified supplier can serve multiple packaging categories, reducing procurement complexity and quality management overhead. The key is verifying certifications in each category rather than relying on strength in one. Evergreen's network of 150+ qualified facilities spans plastic, glass, and metal formats and is trusted by leading global brands such as 3M, kdc/one, and Spectrum.

A packaging supplier should hold the certifications specific to each product category and industry: ISO9001 for quality management, DOT certification for pressurized containers, UN-rated for chemical cans, and FDA compliance for food-contact materials. Verify these before production begins, not after. All Evergreen facilities are qualified to the standards relevant to the industries they serve, including ISO9001 and DOT certification at every aerosol facility.

Personal care products typically use plastic bottles, jars, tubes, pumps, and sprayers, plus aluminum aerosol cans for formats like dry shampoo and deodorant. Decoration drives shelf appeal in this category more than any other. Evergreen supports personal care brands with silkscreen, soft touch, offset printing, embossing, and many more advanced decorations.

Home care packaging must withstand chemically active formulations — detergents, degreasers, and disinfectants — which makes material compatibility and structural integrity essential. Suppliers should offer stability testing support and proven designs for trigger sprayers, bottles, and dispensing closures. Evergreen provides stability testing samples free of charge so brands can verify formulation compatibility before production.

Industrial chemicals — coatings, lubricants, adhesives, and pesticides — typically require metal packaging such as chemical cans, cartridges, and aerosol cans built to withstand pressure, transport stress, and chemical exposure. Regulatory compliance is non-negotiable in this category, covering both the container and its transport classification. All Evergreen aerosol facilities are ISO9001 and DOT-certified. UN-certified specifications are available.

Food and beverage packaging primarily consists of glass bottles and jars, metal closures (lug and CT), and metal food cans — all manufactured under food-contact safety standards. Material choice depends on the product's processing method, such as retort sterilization for canned foods or hot-fill for juices and sauces. Evergreen supplies food-grade packaging with FDA compliance testing provided for all food-contact products.

Supplier qualification is a critical matter in pharmaceutical packaging because regulators hold packaging suppliers to the same documentation and traceability standards as the drug manufacturer. A single undocumented deviation can trigger batch rejection or recall. Evergreen audits every facility across 165 quality management metrics, with QC engineers onsite at all productions globally.

Stock packaging uses existing molds for faster lead times and no tooling investment, while custom packaging requires new tooling to achieve a unique shape or feature. Most brands start with stock for speed-to-market and move to custom as volumes grow. Evergreen offers both, with custom tooling from ideation through full-scale production.
