The Next Big Packaging Idea

As a global leader in the material science of packaging, Curwood works side by side with processors to develop materials that optimize the latest equipment technologies and capitalize on market trends.

Get the Easiest Opening in the Business!

EZ Peel films are the original, market-leading “lift and peel” opening system, creating a crisp, clean peel that won’t rip or leave jagged edges. Perfect for single-portion saddle-packs and other formable/non-formable film systems.

Fresh Appeal in the Poultry Case!

Surround® S shrink bags feature Curwood's award-winning 360-degree printing process, eliminating “white-out” areas found in conventional shrink bag packages. High-gloss Surround S shrink bags can be printed in up to ten colors.
