"2021 is going to be a big year for the PCI family" said Walter Tyson, CEO of Polyethylene Containers.

Rehrig Pacific rapidly built this product line from the ground up in recent years as part of a strategy of constant innovation and diversification to meet customer needs.  "As business changes, so must we" said president and owner Will Rehrig.  "We searched for a family owned business who focuses on product quality and customer service to continue to grow this line of products.  We are excited to partner with PCI to transition this business at the same level of service Rehrig Pacific customers are accustomed."
