Manufacturing

Commercial straw production at our Willoughby, Ohio facility. We focus on repeatable dimensions, clean packaging, and supply programs that work for distributors and food-service customers.

Production focus

Our manufacturing center of gravity is finished drinking straws, not bulk resin sales. Typical production steps include polymer extrusion into straw tube, dimensional control, cutting to length, wrapping or bundling, and packaging for commercial shipment.

Material sets differ by product line. PureStalk straws use plant-based PLA and PHA formulations. Additional polymer lines are developed separately as they move toward commercial readiness.

Capabilities

Extrusion & forming

Straw tube extrusion with attention to wall thickness and diameter consistency for downstream cutting and packaging.

Cutting & finishing

Length control and finishing steps aligned to customer SKU requirements where agreed.

Wrapping & packaging

Commercial pack formats for food-service and distribution channels. Options depend on product and order program.

Custom & private-label manufacturing

We evaluate custom specifications, packaging artwork, and private-label programs based on material compatibility, tooling, and order volume. Not every request fits our current lines or schedule.

Share your target sizes, annual volume, and timeline through our contact form. Our team will respond with what is feasible today versus what would require further development.
