Protective Packaging Corporation, Inc.

Protective Packaging Corporation, Inc., a veteran-owned small business based in Carrollton, Texas, manufactures military-specification flexible packaging and barrier materials for the federal government as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards). The company is structured as a Subchapter S Corporation and competes predominantly full-and-open, though it holds some total small business set-aside contract positions. Its federal footprint is characterized by high-frequency, low-dollar purchase orders and delivery orders across multiple agencies rather than large prime contracts.

Protective Packaging Corporation's core product line centers on barrier materials, moisture-barrier bags, static-shielding bags, heat-sealable bags, and protective wraps compliant with military performance standards including MIL-PRF-131K, MIL-PRF-22191E, MIL-PRF-81705E, and MIL-PRF-121G. Representative recent work includes a $28.8 thousand total small business set-aside purchase order from Defense Logistics Agency Distribution (August 2025) for heat-sealable bags and barrier material rolls; a $2.5 million multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract from DLA Distribution (May 2026, ceiling through May 2031) for heat-sealable bags across 64 line items and five geographic zones; and a $200 thousand Federal Supply Schedule contract with GSA Federal Acquisition Service (November 2022, expiring November 2027) authorizing nationwide delivery of barrier materials, moisture-barrier bags, and related products to civilian and defense agencies.

Customer concentration is substantial but split between two distinct ranking patterns. GSA Federal Acquisition Service dominates both award count and potential value (425 awards, $6.1 million combined potential value across 62% of the top-customer portfolio). Defense Logistics Agency Distribution anchors the second position ($4.3 million combined potential value across 133 awards, ranking second in dollars but third in volume behind Navy). The top five customers account for 62% of recent awards, with GSA, DLA, Navy, Navy Installations Command, and Marine Corps forming the active core. The Department of Army Materiel Command Redstone Arsenal represents the largest single emerging customer by potential value per award ($451 thousand across ten awards). Volume and dollar rankings track closely except for DLA, which places more awards than Navy but carries substantially higher per-order value.

Protective Packaging Corporation places task orders under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (442 task orders, $3 million combined potential value), the DLA Indefinite Delivery Contract SP330014D0001 (105 task orders, $433 thousand), two GSA Blanket Purchase Agreements (GS02F14206 with 104 task orders and GS02F14096 with 85 task orders), and the "Shipping, Packaging and Packing Supplies" vehicle (161 task orders, $806 thousand). Recent activity accelerated sharply in 2026 (163 awards year-to-date as of mid-September) compared to baseline of 23–43 awards annually in 2022–2025; the vendor's award velocity has nearly quadrupled. The recompete cliff carries minimal near-term risk — only two awards (combined potential value $15 thousand) complete within the next twenty-four months.

The vendor's subcontractor footprint is minimal. Two named subs appear in the source: a June 2026 sub award to Defense Systems And Solutions for MV-22 storage and maintenance materials under a Redstone Arsenal contract, and a November 2025 sub award to The Boeing Company for JDAM basic contract initial spare parts procurement. Work is performed at the vendor's Carrollton, Texas manufacturing facility with nationwide distribution capability across all fifty states, Washington D.C., and Puerto Rico. The award portfolio spans 1,324 contracts over a twenty-three-year period, classified predominantly under NAICS 322220 (Coated and Laminated Packaging Paper Manufacturing, 522 awards), Plastics Packaging Film and Sheet Manufacturing (323 awards), and Plastics Bag and Pouch Manufacturing (264 awards), with PSC Bags and Sacks accounting for 738 awards and Packaging and Packing Bulk Materials covering 556 awards. The combined potential value of $12.7 million with $4.5 million obligated reflects the typical order structure: small-dollar consumable supply orders placed frequently across many agencies rather than large prime systems contracts.
