2 About your packaging. If you re not thinking internationally, you re not thinking. Copyright C&L America Inc. 2003

3 Food Packaging Division Congratulations!! Choosing your packaging from C&L America Inc. has put you on the cutting edge of packaging technology, and way ahead of the curve on the quality, consistency, and economy your customers expect. We are the premier offshore manufacturer of precision thermoformed packaging products to the food, electronic, and medical industry. Let s look at some of the advantages you ll enjoy when working with C&L America Inc. over all others. American quality, Offshore $avings We are American thermoformers, with over 15 years experience producing for, and servicing the American market. To deal with the economic realities of the cost of domestic production vs. offshore competition, we have acquired offshore capability with the goal of being able to offer our customers the same quality, delivery, and reliability as domestic production, but with the cost advantage of offshore pricing. Our many years of servicing the packaging needs of Fortune 500 food manufacturers, means we know the importance of a reliable flow of quality product. We ve used that experience to develop an offshore supply system to actually outperform domestic suppliers. How do we do it? Our production is based in Taiwan, the most industrialized, stable, and technically advanced offshore nation in Asia. Production facilities and infrastructure are state of the art, and in many areas exceed domestic technology. Taiwan shipping volume to the United States is huge, with shipments leaving out of several harbors daily. Shipping via boat has become like shipping by truck. Average time from our dock to yours is 15 days. Our average lead time from order placement to your dock is typically 30 days or less.

What we produce. We produce thermoformed products primarily in APET, Polypropylene, Styrene, PVC, multilayer barrier, and clear OPS. All our materials are USDA food contact approved.

Shallow or deep draw containers, light or heavy gauge material, we will duplicate your current container with our inhouse design team, or make something entirely new based on your
