| Background |
| In 1979 the Founder of Action Packaging,
Inc., Doug Rice, was working at the family business, Rice Packaging, Inc. and
was upset that their label suppliers could not deliver labels quickly. Through
an error, a critical label had been overlooked when a group of labels were
ordered. "I need them by Thursday for a customer's job!" he exclaimed to the
printer, "And we're out." The printer responded, "well, we're kind of behind,
how about early next month? You know, our normal delivery time is four weeks,
and we will get them to you in two."
|
| Thus was founded the burning desire that exists today
in Action Packaging: do what the others say you can't. From that day
forward, the Company motto has been "Action Packaging is Response!"
|
| Today, Action Packaging Systems, Inc. is a dynamic,
growing company in the label printing industry. The company has created an
industry presence by offering rapid response to requests for quotations,
quality products and systems solutions to its customers' needs.
|
| |
| Facilities |
| Headquartered in Ellington, Connecticut, about 15
miles northeast of Hartford, the Company employs over 30 Associates at its
Ellington headquarters and operates seven days a week to meet demand for its
labels and printing systems.
|
| Expanding to High Point, North Carolina, in 1994 has
allowed the Company to increase its capacity and even further shorten its
response time. Two minute quotes are the norm and two day delivery is regularly
requested and achieved.
