creative werks is ... ENGINEEREDOur mission is to be the ultimate packaging partner, to deliver the highest quality products that exceed our clients’ expectations and win the hearts of consumers.
Design is a core function of our company. Our team of designers creates packaging that’s original, functional, and driven by data and market research. Our designers and engineers collaborate closely to ensure that every design is cost efficient and feasibly manufactured.
Manufacturing is the heart of our business. We were born out of manufacturing and we pride ourselves on our ability to make products for our client’s retail success. Our headquarters in Bensenville, Illinois has 187,000 square feet of manufacturing space and in neighboring Elk Grove Village we have over 350,000. Beyond our locations in the Chicagoland area, we also manufacture in Mexico and China.
We invest in the world’s best machinery to co-pack a vast array of packaging components from large scale bagging lines, to cartoning, to customized, customer-specific lines. We have the capital and engineering ability to understand how to implement a highly efficient and cost-effective packaging line.
creative werks brings over 60 years of experience and entrepreneurial energy to our state-of-the-art manufacturing, co-packing, and design facilities. We maintain SQF 2000 Level 3 food-grade co-packing rooms to provide both labor-intensive and automated fulfillment for top 100 food brand companies. Our clients value our extensive knowledge of retailers and consumers, as well as our high manufacturing, co-packing, and quality standards.
