Our History

Founded in 2002, Hiwassee Packaging, Inc. has been a steadfast provider of excellence in the pool and spa industry. Through two generations of dedicated leadership, our founders and their successors have seamlessly integrated expertise in engineering and law, drawing on decades of collective experience to establish a company distinguished by its unwavering commitment to integrity and excellence.

All our founders previously worked together at a film supplier for the pool and spa industry. Observing the inadequacies of the existing packagers, they united to form Hiwassee Packaging, focusing on delivering superior packaging solutions rather than just supplying materials. This vision has driven us to become leaders in our field, continually setting new standards for quality and efficiency.

In fact, a pivotal moment in our history was the contribution of one of our late founders, a product engineer who developed the industry-standard film structure for the 1LB pool shock pouch. This innovation remains a cornerstone of the pool chemical packaging industry.
