CCW Products, Inc. began operations on September 1, 1979 in a small warehouse in the Denver suburb of Englewood, Colorado. Production was started with two extrusion blow-molding machines and a total of nine employees.

Several proprietary and custom products were molded initially and we knew then that there was a need for clear, wide-mouth jars made of FDA approved material for food packaging. We decided to make the tooling investments to develop a proprietary line of these clear containers so customers would not be required to buy molds.

The plant became a speciality operation, molding containers of only clear, FDA approved material. This proved to be a successful strategy as the wide-mouth clear jars found many food and nonfood packaging and Point-of-Purchase applications. Demand for these products grew rapidly.

By 1985 it was obvious that a larger plant was needed to sustain the growth in demand. We built a factory dedicated to the CCW Products operations. The plant was built with a rail siding in the Denver Suburb area of Arvada, Colorado. The company moved its facilities in 1986, and a few years later that plant was expanded by 17,000 square feet to a total of 47,000 square feet. Besides being able to run more production machinery, the rail siding gave it another advantage of allowing the company to buy raw bulk materials by rail car, thereby reducing the cost of jars to our customer.

By 1998, without room for more expansion, it was unquestionable a larger plant was again needed to sustain growth and meet demand. CCW products built a larger plant and in June 2000, moved its entire business just 1/2 mile east to the new 80,000 square foot facility. Again positioned along a rail siding, CCW Products has an increased advantage to now handle multiple rail cars as well as ample silo storage for increased raw material purchases. This new site includes room to expand again without moving.

CCW Products, Inc. 80,000 square foot facility.

The Denver location, near the center of the United States and near three interstate highways, has proved to be an excellent shipping point. The finished goods are shipped by truck and rail. Very favorable long-term contract truck and inter-modal rates have been negotiated making CCW's products quite competitive to most destinations on the North American continent and an attractive source for the international market.
