Heritage Bag Company is a key player in the plastics industry, founded in 1973 as a second-generation family business specializing in manufacturing plastic trash bags, can liners, food bags, and medical waste solutions for institutional and commercial customers. It started small but grew through expertise and investments, getting acquired by Novolex in 2016 to expand its reach with seven manufacturing sites and nearly 800 employees across North America. Today, it focuses on high-quality, innovative products like thinner yet stronger liners, serving sectors from healthcare to retail with a commitment to reliability and customer solutions.
Heritage Bag stays out of the culture wars entirely, with zero mentions of DEI training, Pride endorsements, BLM support, or racial equity pushes on their site or parent Novolex's pages, just straightforward business without the usual corporate lectures on inclusion. Their sustainability efforts are practical, like running recycling centers for plastic film, not the over-the-top ESG guilt trips that turn companies into agenda billboards.
