Radius Packaging
Leading Midwest Rigid Plastic Packaging Provider
Purpose
Radius Packaging is a leading manufacturer of rigid plastic packaging with a strong market presence in the Midwest. We boast innovative design and production capabilities and have built a robust base of blue-chip clients. Our holistic and flexible approach to packaging leverages a unique blend of manufacturing platforms, materials, and value-added services to meet our customers' needs. With expertise in both blow and injection molding, a passion for innovation, and an unwavering commitment to quality, the Radius team consistently pushes the boundaries of technology to deliver high-quality solutions.
Vision
When Robert Schoeneck started his first blow molding company with his brother-in-law in 1959, it was one of only a few blow molding operations in the United States. In 1972, he founded Schoeneck Containers on his own, focusing on advancing blow molding and plastic packaging technology for his customers. Ever since, our company has continued to evolve as an industry leader. In 2022, we rebranded as Radius Packaging to better encapsulate our complete 360-degree approach to packaging solutions.
Radius has sustained 52 years of growth through a customer-centric culture, consultative approaches, and strategic investments. Our diverse process technologies, stock molds, and custom design expertise enable us to meet the varied needs of our customers. Our top markets include Home Care, Professional Cleaning, Food, Specialty Beverage, and Nutraceuticals. As a plastics industry leader, we take pride in offering a 100% recyclable portfolio with High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Polypropylene (PP), and Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) materials.

Mission
Aside from our manufacturing accomplishments, the secret to our success is and continues to be our people and our culture. The focus on culture begins at the top where Tom Frank, our President and CEO states, "We really focus on the team and the family environment that we have within the organization and how that is an extension to our customers, our community, and our business partners that we work with every day. We want to make the world a better place, improve our industry, and guide people to be all-around good human beings. That's a priority within our organization.”
Additional Culture Details
At Radius, we refer to our team as "members," not employees, reflecting our belief that collaboration is key to our success. Despite significant changes under new ownership, the familial culture established 52 years ago continues to thrive within our company.
We have multiple formal recognition programs to show appreciation for members, reward their accomplishments, and celebrate personal and professional milestones. Examples include our Rockstar Recognition program, which is a peer-to-peer initiative that highlights extraordinary team members. A committee selects a winning member who receives a $75 gift card, while all other nominees receive a token of appreciation. The Golden Ticket program is a supervisor-to-member recognition that formally acknowledges and thanks exceptional individuals who go above and beyond to help the team succeed. Golden Ticket recipients receive $100.
We emphasize member engagement and invest in creating a sense of community at Radius. Through various events, educational resources, committees, clubs, and programs, our members find more than just a job at Radius. We have created career roadmaps to demonstrate and cultivate growth opportunities for our members. While the most common progressions follow a vertical path within departments, we also support and encourage members to learn and contribute to new functions or departments through lateral moves or special project teams.
