What REACTION PACKAGING INC does

Reaction Packaging Inc., doing business as Ampak Inc., is a Canadian B2B packaging manufacturer headquartered in Laval, Quebec, operating a single-site production and distribution facility serving Canadian and North American customers. The company manufactures and distributes plastic containers across multiple resin types (PET, HDPE, LDPE, PP, PS, and PVC) in sizes ranging from 1 oz to 1 L, with a catalog of more than 40 stock SKUs spanning cylindrical bottles, double- and single-wall pots, oval and bullet shapes, Boston Round, Packer, Vaporisateur, and product-specific designs for maple syrup, honey, edible oils, spices, BBQ sauces, motor oil, water, dairy, juices, carbonated beverages, spirits, wine, and household chemicals. In addition to plastic, the company resells glass jars and glass bottles, and supplies a complete closure range including Clic-Loc, CT-400, vaporizers, Yorkers, lock-top, flip-top, disc-top, lotion pumps, and atomizers compatible with neck finishes from 20-410 through 38-400.

The company's core technology is custom plastic packaging manufacturing using injection blow molding and extrusion blow molding, enabling both standardized catalog production and bespoke ("Sur mesure") design for customers with specialized geometry, material, or closure requirements. The 16-person operation runs a direct B2B go-to-market model with a website-based product catalog, an online quote request ("Devis") workflow, and a bilingual French/English newsletter, rather than a distributor or platform-mediated channel. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with contact routed through a sales mailbox and toll-free number. End-customer industries are diverse and horizontal — food and beverage, automotive fluids, cosmetics and personal care, household chemicals, and supplements — which spreads revenue risk across use cases rather than vertical concentration. The company is privately held, has no disclosed funding rounds, no patents or trademarks on record, no named leadership team in the source data, and is positioned as a stable, independent regional packaging supplier rather than a venture-backed or technology-led business.
