We don't just make packaging - we shape how your customers experience your product. It's not just about building premium products. It's about building the trust, pride and commitment that comes with them.

Fluorination is the process of bonding fluorine atoms to the interior of a plastic container, creating an impermeable membrane. This barrier protects your packaging from distortion, odor emission and product loss through permeation.
Products that would benefit from fluorine-treated packaging include herbicides, cleaners and other solvent-based chemicals.
During the production stage of your packaging, in-mold fluorination is a more cost-effective and timely alternative to post-fluorination. Some benefits of in-mold fluorination include:
- Shorter lead-time
- Eliminates multiple shipping and labor charges
- Eliminates potential container damage caused by a post-fluorination process
- Allows packaging to be sleeved and labeled during production
- Minimizes cost and overall environmental impact related to product reheating, transportation and handling

"Success should be targeted, striven for, achieved and celebrated in small bites, as each success can bring about a new direction towards a new ultimate goal based on lessons learned."

- Our sustainable “cradle-to-cradle” (C2C) design creates recyclable products that can be reprocessed to create new packaging.
- Our “closed loop” operation minimizes production waste by grinding and feeding all excess plastic back into the manufacturing process.
- Our involvement as board and committee members in the industry recycling programs of Cleanfarms and ACRC assures we are on the forefront to minimize our environmental footprint.
As part of The Bodtker Group of Companies, Reliance Products has consistently maintained a strong commitment to giving back to the community. Supporting a wide range of charitable organizations remains at the heart of who we are. Beneficiaries include Habitat for Humanity, Epic Experience, and innumerable smaller charitable organizations throughout Canada and the United States.
