We Listen.
We Understand. We Design.

PAKFAB has been a manufacturer of returnable packaging for the automotive industry since its inception as PFI (primarily manufacturing) in 2003 and PAKFAB (primarily design and sales) in 2010. After a long and successful period of collaboration, PAKFAB and PFI merged in 2021 to create an internationally integrated, packaging solution provider. With over 400 employees in 5 locations across 3 countries, PAKFAB is primed for continued growth and innovation across North America. We have come a long way from our humble beginnings in converted barns and garages in southwestern Ontario to become one of the leading firms in our industry in under 20 years.

What makes us unique

Customized and flexible solutions.

All of our packaging is designed and produced with a strong focus on our customer needs and specifications.

Designed for circularity.

We reuse, design and give new life to a wide range of materials, creating a circular packaging solution to eliminate waste.

Zero landfill goal.

We cover the entire process: design, manufacture and repair. So, in addition to saving money, this constant reusing of materials produces a substantial diversion of waste from landfills.

Quality focused processes.

Quality is integral and critical to the success of our business and begins by developing our people through ongoing training. It permeates our processes as we continually strive to improve our design, manufacturing, and delivery standards.

Based in Canada, USA and Mexico.

We seamlessly work across three countries, understanding culture, talent, context and compliance specificities.

Applicable across industries.

We design and manufacture packaging for many industries taking into consideration size, safety, efficiency and sustainability within the supply chain.
