4	Enviropak Founded in 1996 by a group of private investors, EnviroPAK’s mission was to provide world class packaging solutions which would be environmentally friendly. That quest began in Earth City Missouri, with the funding to build a state of the art 20,000 square foot facility. Receiving additional financing through local banks, the Small Business Administration, and the St. Louis Economic Development Council enabled us to purchase our first production machine from Emery International Developments Ltd. of Toronto. Our first product was fluorescent bulb end caps. Since then we have produced protective molded pulp packaging for the Electronics, Computer, Beverage, Consumer Goods, Automotive, CD/DVD, Medical, Candle, Wine, Food Service and Telecommunication Markets, to name a few. EnviroPAK is also proud to have won the IOPP (Institute of Packaging Professionals) AmeriStar Gold Award for the design of a 12 bottle beer shipper, as well as a Technology and Innovation Award from the St. Louis County Economic Council.	16
