CLEAR FILM PRINTING, INC.

What CLEAR FILM PRINTING, INC. does

Clear Film Printing, Inc. is a family-owned flexographic printing company headquartered in Kaufman, Texas, providing custom flexible packaging solutions to industrial and manufacturing customers. Founded in 1982 by Norman Olivarez and rebranded to its current name in 1989, the company transitioned to second-generation ownership in 2019 when Daryl and Deanna Olivarez purchased the business. The company operates two warehouse facilities in Kaufman, TX under a 24-hour production schedule with 27 employees.

The company's core offering spans the full flexible packaging manufacturing workflow: printing, slitting, converting, and laminations across a range of substrates including polyethylene, polyethylene shrink, polyolefin, PVC, BOPP, stretch films, and paper, plus specialty applications. Its technology foundation is a capital-intensive fleet of flexographic printing presses, most notably a new 8-color Koenig & Bauer press brought into production in early 2023, in addition to slitters, bag machines, and lamination equipment. The company markets itself as a one-stop, in-house flexible packaging converter serving customers who require custom printing and converting of multiple film types.

The business model is direct B2B manufacturing: customers contact the company by phone or email for quotes on custom orders, with no disclosed digital sales channels, distribution intermediaries, or public pricing. Revenue is generated through one-off manufacturing orders for flexible packaging products on a quote-based, pay-as-you-go basis. The company serves a horizontal segment of industrial and manufacturing customers in the United States, with a regional Texas-area concentration. It is a privately held corporation with no disclosed funding rounds, subsidiaries, or institutional investors.
