50 Years of Growth: A Packaging Company Built on Service

From 1975 to Today: How Atlantic Tape & Packaging Grew Through Decades of Acquisitions

Peachtree City, United States – July 22, 2026 / Atlantic Tape & Packaging /

Atlantic Tape & Packaging, a distributor of stretch film, packaging equipment, and related industrial supplies, is marking 50 years in business — a milestone that reflects not only its longevity but a deliberate growth strategy built on acquisitions, expanded capabilities, and a consistent focus on customer service.

A Company Built from the Ground Up

Founded in 1975, Atlantic Tape & Packaging began as a straightforward supplier in a competitive market. The company earned its footing not through aggressive advertising or flashy positioning, but through reliable service and a willingness to invest in the right opportunities when they presented themselves. Over the decades, that approach shaped a business that today operates as a full-service resource for companies managing complex packaging and logistics needs.

Fifty years is a significant marker in any industry, but in packaging distribution — a space defined by tight margins, operational demands, and evolving equipment — reaching that milestone while continuing to grow speaks to the discipline behind the business decisions that got Atlantic Tape & Packaging here.

Growth Through Strategic Acquisitions

The company’s expansion over the decades has not followed a single template. Atlantic Tape & Packaging pursued acquisitions selectively, adding businesses and capabilities that reinforced its core strengths and filled gaps in what it could offer customers. Each acquisition brought new product lines, new customers, or deeper expertise in specific areas of the packaging supply chain.

That strategy translated into a considerably broader portfolio over time. Today, the company supplies stretch film, stretch wrappers, pallet wrapping equipment, printing solutions, and a wide range of packaging consumables and supplies — a lineup that serves customers across manufacturing, warehousing, distribution, and fulfillment operations. The ability to source and service that range of products under one roof is a direct result of the acquisitions made along the way.

For customers managing high-volume operations, having a single supplier handle everything from packaging film and stretch wrappers to printed materials and pallet wrapping equipment reduces the friction that comes with coordinating multiple vendor relationships. Atlantic Tape & Packaging built that capability intentionally, deal by deal, over five decades.

Pallets, Equipment, and the People Behind the Business

The practical side of what Atlantic Tape & Packaging does is grounded in the operational realities its customers face daily. Pallet wrapping is not a glamorous part of logistics, but it is a critical one. Loads that are not properly secured create downstream problems — damaged product, safety risks, and wasted labor. The company’s focus on providing the right stretch film specifications and properly functioning stretch wrappers addresses a real and recurring need in facilities that move product at volume.

Printing capabilities round out the company’s service offering, giving customers the option to source labeled and printed packaging materials alongside their film and equipment needs. That integration reflects the same logic that has driven the acquisition strategy: give customers fewer reasons to look elsewhere.

The professionals who support customers through equipment recommendations, film selection, and technical questions carry institutional knowledge built across decades of working in this specific segment. That continuity matters in an industry where the wrong film gauge or an improperly calibrated stretch wrapper can affect daily throughput.
