Haviland Plastic Products

What Haviland Plastic Products does

Haviland Plastic Products (HPP) is a privately held, family-owned US manufacturer of plastic nursery containers for the commercial horticulture industry, founded in 2000 and headquartered at a single integrated campus in Haviland, Ohio with 51-100 employees. The company produces three core product lines — the Blow Molded Series (standard and squat blow-molded containers from 3.58 to 266 gallons), the HP/High Performance Series (thermoformed containers with engineered features such as rolled lips, fluted bottoms, and extra drain holes), and the HP ConServ Series (thermoformed containers with integrated water reservoirs that reduce irrigation and fertilizer demand). All containers are manufactured from post-consumer and post-industrial HDPE #2 feedstock processed in HPP's on-site recycling yard, where a 30-plus-year proprietary process converts milk jugs, detergent bottles, shampoo bottles, and used nursery containers into clean flake. The on-site Haviland Energy facility — an anaerobic digester fueled by biodegradable waste plus three direct-drive wind turbines — supplies 75-80% of HPP's annual electricity use.

HPP operates a hybrid go-to-market model combining an extensive distributor network (50+ US distributors across 23 states and Puerto Rico, four Canadian distributors in British Columbia, Ontario, and Quebec, and two Mexican distributors in Nuevo Leon and Morelos) with direct manufacturer sales via an inside-sales manager and eight regional sales managers whose territories collectively cover the continental United States. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time sales of plastic containers, supplemented by a custom-branding professional services line that offers multi-color offset printing up to eight colors, logos, color matching, custom graphics, recycle information, and bar coding on the HP series. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The company markets through its website, downloadable catalogs and data sheets in English and Spanish, regional sales relationships, industry-association partnerships (ALNLA, FNGLA, MTNA, NCNLA, SNA, TNLA), and a light Facebook/LinkedIn social presence. Custom-branded work is delivered to multiple major horticulture brands, but no individual customer concentration is disclosed. The customer base is primarily mid-market nursery and greenhouse growers, with enterprise brand-customization work layered on top.

There are no disclosed funding rounds, mergers, acquisitions, or institutional investors. The company is family-owned and operates under the Haviland Companies umbrella alongside subsidiary Haviland Energy (bio-energy) and affiliated Haviland Drainage Products. Operational history includes a 2010 branding-program launch, a 2011 High Performance Series launch following the addition of a custom thermoform machine, a 2012 in-house renewable energy facility construction, and a 2014 milestone of producing 75-80% of electrical usage renewably.
