Representing Regency since 1988, Norstar originally supplied polyethylene products only to customers in the meat, poultry and dairy industries. Since then, however, our Regency product line has expanded to include a wide variety of solutions for confectionary, spices, food additives and even pet foods distributed through our Jetnet Canada division.
Family-owned Regency Plastics was established in 1958 as a small converter of polyethylene bags. Through the years, the company has grown to become one of North America's premiere manufacturers of industrial polyethylene packaging. Old-fashioned values, utmost attention to detail and pride in their work has resulted in a unique and long-term relationship with Norstar that is second to none.
Regency is proud to announce their recent FSSC 22000 food safety certification.
