Our Story

Built on More Than 30 Years of Packaging Experience

A durable alternative for applications that demand more than corrugated plastic but do not justify injection-mold tooling.

Founder Paul Thompson began his career solving custom packaging problems and building trusted industry relationships. That experience eventually led to Duralok’s solid-HDPE partition systems.

Years of solving difficult returnable-packaging applications led Duralok to develop its own proprietary process for cutting and fabricating solid-HDPE partitions. That specialized capability remains an important part of how we turn custom designs into dependable production parts today.

Today, co-owners Anthony Smith and Caleb Townsend are carrying that work forward with the same commitment to quality, thoughtful design, and manufacturing excellence. Paul continues to contribute as Duralok's Founder & Product Design Advisor, sharing the experience behind the product and helping solve challenging applications.
