What GOEX does
GOEX Corporation is a privately held, family-owned manufacturer of custom rigid plastic sheet and roll stock products, founded in 1990 as a spin-off from Prent Corporation and headquartered in Janesville, Wisconsin. The company operates a 235,000-square-foot Janesville facility with 10 extrusion lines and a second manufacturing site in Cedar City, Utah, producing high-impact polystyrene (STYREX), PETG (CP300, CP700, GLIDEX), polycarbonate (PEEREX), polypropylene (CONTOUR), polyester (MEDPET, CONSERVE), and a family of recycled-content products (RE•COVER). Its proprietary resin blends include MEDEX 641, positioned as a lower-cost alternative to PETG for medical packaging. The company is ISO 9001:2015, FSSC 22000, HACCP, FDA, and USP Plastic Class VI certified, and supports sterilization methods including Gamma, EtO, and E-Beam.
GOEX serves three primary verticals: medical packaging (rigid medical device and pharmaceutical packaging, surgical face shields), food packaging (FDA-compliant food contact materials for thermoformed trays, deli containers, and barrier applications), and graphics/print (POP displays, signage, shelf danglers), with consumer packaging as a fourth, lower-priority segment. Revenue is generated through direct enterprise field sales using a quote-based pricing model for custom extrusions and a Stock Sheet Program for 24-48 hour quick-ship standard materials. Distribution is regional across North America. Sustainability is embedded in operations via a Zero Landfill program (near 100% resin utilization) and up to 70% post-consumer recycled content substrates, supported by an exclusive EcoLogic Eco-One additive partnership and the RE•COVER sub-brand. Management includes President & CEO Josh Gray and President/COO Michael Pregont, with the company emphasizing long-term, reinvestment-driven decision making free from quarterly earnings pressure.
