Established in 1978 as Southern Bag Corporation, Hood Packaging today has evolved into a world-class packaging supplier, with 22 plants located across North America. We make plastic film and bags, woven polypropylene bags, coated and laminated materials, and paper packaging. We are a stable, strong and proud company.
