Action Packaging Systems, Inc.

In 1979 the Founder of Action Packaging, Inc., Doug Rice, was working at the family business, Rice Packaging, Inc. and was upset that their label suppliers could not deliver labels quickly. Through an error, a critical label had been overlooked when a group of labels were ordered. "I need them by Thursday for a customer's job!" he exclaimed to the printer, "And we're out." The printer responded, "well, we're kind of behind, how about early next month? You know, our normal delivery time is four weeks, and we will get them to you in two."

Thus was founded the burning desire that exists today in Action Packaging and the Label Express Division: do what the others say you can't. From that day forward, the Company motto has been "Label Express is Response!"

Today, Action Packaging Systems, Inc. is a dynamic, growing company in the label printing industry. The company has created an industry presence by offering rapid response to requests for quotations, quality products and systems solutions to its customers' needs.
