About Drug Plastics
Family-Owned. Family Values.
Our parents, Fred and Suzanne Biesecker, started out as plastic pill bottle wholesalers in 1963. They conducted the business’ activities in the basement of their home in Boyertown, Pennsylvania. Before the end of the decade, their rapidly growing business evolved into a plastic bottle manufacturer for the pharmaceutical, health, and beauty industries.
As children, we remember talking about the business over dinner, helping to ship orders, and working in the manufacturing plant over summer breaks. Of all the wonderful memories, none is more vivid than the caring way our mother and father treated people. They always treated our extended family of customers, suppliers, and employees with integrity, courtesy, and a genuine concern for their well-being. We continue to treat people this way at Drug Plastics, because our family values have shaped our business values.

You're Dealing Directly with the Manufacturer
We’ve been designing and manufacturing our own HDPE, LDPE, PP, and PET bottles for over 60 years. When you work with us you have direct access to over half a century of manufacturing knowledge and expertise. We don’t import our plastic bottles and plastic closures. We don’t have other companies make them for us. All of our bottles and closures are made in the USA. We’re proud to provide local jobs, support families, and help build stronger communities.
We’re a Woman-Owned Business
Drug Plastics is proud to be a woman-owned business. Our family atmosphere fosters an environment where we treat each other with respect and recognize our value as individuals. Aside from the social and economic benefits of supporting and working with a woman-owned business, you’ll find that the caring, responsive, customer-focused attributes of our culture are a direct result of our ownership.
We Focus on Medicinal & Wellness Packaging
We make HDPE, LDPE, PP, and PET bottles, and plastic closures for medicinal, wellness, and lifestyle products. Period. We focus our entire team on understanding the packaging needs and challenges facing the healthcare market. This allows us to service producers of prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, supplements, vitamins, and lifestyle products better than anyone else.
Perfect Bottles and Closures Every Time
While most companies claim to make a quality product, few claim to make a perfect product. Our goal is to make a perfect product, every time, no exceptions. This means we deliver predictable, repeatable quality you can depend on to keep your filling lines running smoothly.
We're Responsive and Dependable
As a manufacturer ourselves, we know that most companies claim to have great service, yet few actually rise to that level. At Drug Plastics, we make every effort to treat our customers in a responsive, dependable way. We care enough to ensure our customers get exactly what they need when they need it. It’s just the right thing to do.
