What we make

Not just a bag.
A better outcome.

It takes more than a good-looking package to keep produce at its best. We bring material science, beautiful print, and real-world manufacturing together under one roof.

Precision meets possibility

Good packaging
is never one-size-fits-all.

Some crops need to breathe. Others need a barrier. Every one deserves thoughtful engineering. Our team matches structure, printing, and converting to the food—and the people—on the other side of the package.

Why Emerald

Big ideas. Personal attention.

We've grown a lot since 1963. The way we show up for customers hasn't changed.

01 —

Innovate with purpose.

We find ways to help products last longer, production run smoother, and brands stand apart.

02 —

Be there when it counts.

Produce doesn't work to a predictable schedule. Our people understand urgency and work with it.

03 —

Make progress real.

Smarter structures, post-consumer recycled content, and manufacturing choices that reduce waste.

Sustainability in action

Less waste.
More possibility.

We've helped make food-contact recycled content possible in the produce aisle. And we're still asking what a better package can be.

A story worth telling

From bread
to broccoli.

One printing press. A handful of people. A little factory in Berkeley, California. Our story started with bakery bags in 1963 and grew alongside the fresh food industry.

More than six decades later, we're still family-owned, still curious, and still finding new ways to help food travel well.
