TLP Packaging

What TLP Packaging does

TLP Packaging LLC is a privately held B2B wholesale supplier of eco-friendly reusable shopping bags, founded in 2017 and headquartered in Modesto, California, with Vietnam-based sales operations. The company sources and distributes seven primary bag product lines — non-woven PP, laminated woven PP, RPET (recycled PET), cooler, paper, PE, and canvas — along with engineered sub-products including foldable grocery bags, D-cut, T-shirt, and square bottom self-standing bags. Its differentiator is materials versatility combined with structural engineering, notably square-bottom gusseted designs that deliver 25-30% greater internal volume and self-standing stability versus flat bags, and collapsible constructions that achieve up to 90% space reduction.

TLP positions itself as a sourcing liaison between Western buyers and Asia-based manufacturing, rather than as a vertically integrated manufacturer. Core technical components are material handling across PP woven, PP non-woven, RPET, paper, PE, canvas, and insulated formats, plus BOPP lamination (matt and glossy) and gravure printing for custom branding. The company holds ISO 9001:2015, BSCI, GRS, and FSC certifications, which materially accelerate vendor onboarding with EU and US retail chains that mandate social and recycled-content compliance.

The business model is wholesale bulk sales with quote-based pricing (not publicly disclosed), supplemented by customization services for logo printing, color, sizing, and handle style. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales with a dedicated International Sales Specialist, supplemented by content marketing (24+ blog pages), SEO, and LinkedIn. Primary customers are supermarkets and grocery chains, with secondary exposure to fashion/retail brands (Woolrich), food service (cooler bags), pharmacy/healthcare (HPB), and event/promotional buyers. Geographic markets span North America, the EU, and Southeast Asia, with named brand partners including Fair Price, Savers, BBQ Galore, Quiltmania, HPB, and Woolrich.
