TemperPack Expands Manufacturing Capabilities in Michigan

RICHMOND, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TemperPack®, the leader in sustainable thermal packaging, announced the relocation of its Green Cell Foam® manufacturing facility from Holt, Michigan to a larger and upgraded facility in Lansing. The 135,000-square-foot site represents a significant expansion in space, with upgrades in equipment and operational flow that will increase production capacity and streamline distribution operations.

The new Lansing location provides 60% more manufacturing space compared to the previous site, enabling TemperPack to meet growing demand for its innovative Green Cell Foam insulation products. The facility also features new production equipment, enhanced IT, and a significant increase in shipping and receiving docks, improving logistics efficiency and reducing load times.

Strategically located near major interstates, the new facility improves access for freight carriers and partners across the region and beyond. The central location strengthens TemperPack's ability to serve its expanding customer base efficiently.

“As we continue to grow and uphold our commitment to sustainability, expanding our Michigan operations allows us to better meet rising customer demand for Green Cell Foam,” said Troy Hagenbuch, Chief Operating Officer. “This new facility significantly enhances our manufacturing and service capabilities, enabling us to deliver greater efficiency, speed, and reliability to our customers.”

The expanded production capacity will support TemperPack's mission to provide environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional packaging materials. Green Cell Foam is a plant-based, certified compostable insulation material that offers comparable performance to polystyrene foam while significantly reducing environmental impact.

Peter Wells, Chief Executive Officer, noted, “As Direct-to-Consumer e-commerce continues to expand in Food and Beverage, and Life Sciences, due to significant trends in ‘Food is Health’ and ‘Preventive Medicine’, TemperPack must keep pace with the demand for sustainable packaging solutions that provide exceptional unboxing experiences for our customers’ consumers -— built on a digital thread for innovative end-to-end solutions that build brand and community with a personalized and sustainable experience.”
