Winston Packaging Celebrates 100 Anniversary
As times change, Winston Packaging changes with it, moving to newer industries such as nutraceuticals, cosmeceuticals, and Internet retail, and becoming certified to sustainable “green” packaging standards. The company actively pursues practices to reduce, reuse, and recycle all materials used in its facility in order to reduce its carbon footprint.
“When you look back and consider what has taken place in the world in the past 100 years, you gain a perspective of what my grandfather and father faced, up to the experiences my son and I face today,” Gordon says. “My grandfather and father faced their own very unique challenges: the Great Depression, two World Wars, rationing, a manufacturing revolution. Today, surviving and thriving as a fourth-generation, family-owned business relies on strong customer relationships and partnering to help them find solutions in sustainable package design, GMP quality standards, customer management systems, shipping and more. From what my grandfather started in 1911 through today, we are certainly proud of our 100 years.”
