The July 31st edition of the USPOULTRY Wire featured Dolco Packaging, a subsidiary of Tekni-Plex as the weekly Spotlight allied member. Dolco is the leading manufacturer of polystyrene foam egg cartons.
Dolco has numerous manufacturing locations in the U.S. to service the egg industry. With the emergence of COVID-19 and the partial collapse of the food service sector, shell eggs were diverted to the retail stream requiring a sharp increase in the supply of cartons. Dolco reconfigured production lines, initiated 3-shift production and rationalized the supply chain to order to satisfy the requirements of their customers.
