History

A concise historical narrative of NAICS Code 424130-29 covering global milestones and recent developments within the United States.

  • The "Plastic Containers (Wholesale)" industry has a relatively short history, as plastic containers only became widely available in the mid-20th century. The first plastic containers were made from Bakelite, a type of plastic invented in 1907, but it wasn't until the 1950s that polyethylene terephthalate (PET) was developed, which is now the most commonly used plastic for containers. In the 1960s, blow molding technology was developed, which allowed for the mass production of plastic containers. Since then, the industry has continued to grow and innovate, with advancements in materials, design, and manufacturing processes. In the United States, the plastic container industry has seen significant growth in recent decades. In the 1980s and 1990s, the industry was dominated by a few large players, but in the 2000s, smaller companies began to enter the market, leading to increased competition and innovation. One notable advancement in recent years has been the development of biodegradable plastics, which are becoming increasingly popular as consumers become more environmentally conscious. Overall, the industry has continued to grow and evolve, with new products and technologies constantly being developed and introduced to the market.
