About Us
A Legacy of Innovation
For more than 60 years, McLean Packaging has prioritized collaborative, customer-focused partnerships to create high-quality, paper-based packaging and display solutions.
McLean Packaging was established in 1961 as a small gift box manufacturer located just outside of Philadelphia, PA, in a modest 8,000 square foot facility. Today, McLean continues to be privately owned by one of the company’s original founders and has expanded its operations to include three highly specialized manufacturing facilities that exceed 500,000 square feet and more than 200 employees.
As technology evolves, McLean remains committed to bringing our customers the finest-quality packaging that also helps streamline supply chain efficiency. We are driven by a passion for excellence and are committed to investing in leading-edge technology for best-in-class product quality and supply chain management.
McLean’s unparalleled ability to communicate product quality through optimized design and production is a direct result in the continued investment in our equipment and employees, enabling us to create innovative, problem-solving designs and market solutions that exceed the expectations of our customers.

Collaborative Design Techniques
Our design teams understand how to create strong visual and functional packaging that highlights and protects our customers’ products.* When McLean Packaging initiates a project, sales and design work together with our customers to ensure all marketing, design, and packaging options have been fully explored. Using sophisticated packaging software, we can develop and produce physical white samples for evaluation or an electronic rendering of the design, followed by a mocked-up prototype to ensure customer satisfaction. This is all accomplished with a keen understanding of an ecological balance and keeps total cost packaging opportunities in the forefront.
High-Quality Standards
Quality management is more than just an essential part of our corporate framework, it’s one of our most valuable resources. McLean’s quality standards are taught and practiced in real time on the operator level with support from management and ownership. With strict standards in both our facilities and performance, we strive to create the best possible packaging solutions.
Our guiding objective is to ensure all of your marketing targets have been met by applying the most sustainable materials available and maximizing all cost-saving opportunities.
