About Us: Established in the early 2000s, Fineline began as a family businedd with a bold ambition: to revolutionize the resturant and foodservice industry with plastics that are both innovative and practical.

Every Fineline product is made with the same values we've maintained in our products from the start: innovation, quality craftsmanship, and functionality. Our goal, as it has always been, is to revolutionize the industry iwht dynamic new ideas that drive value and raise expectations, advancing growth, and giving power to the customers. As we continue to expand, overtaking the high standards we set for ourselves, we haven't forgotten our old-fashioned family values: commitment to our customers, high preformance plastics at increadible value, and, as always, making design-driven products.
