American Built Containment Systems (ABC Systems) specializes in thin gauge thermoformed clamshells and blister packaging. Whether a customer needs an attractive design for a consumer product or a heavy-duty tray and lid combination for a returnable application, we take the time to learn their needs up-front and to engineer a solution that works for them. ABC Systems has dedicated machines for both small and large runs of clamshells and blisters, as well as the printed cards that are used to describe the products to the end user. Most importantly we offer a full turn-key thermoforming solution for clamshells and blisters from the initial design, prototyping, tooling, production, assembly, contract packaging, warehousing, and shipment to the final destination.
We even have a Foreign Trade Zone Designation (FTZ) that allows us to receive imported product for our customers and defer or eliminate the ``duty`` on those items. Using our Foreign Trade Zone Designation (FTZ) we receive products for our customers, package them using our clamshells and blisters, seal them, warehouse them, and ship them as needed. We work closely with our customers from start to finish making sure they are 100% satisfied with not only our clamshells and blisters, but with the functionality of these products as well.
Clamshells and blister packaging can be used for both retail and industrial applications. We use materials ranging from PVC, Polystyrene, Polyethylene PET and Recycled Polyethylene RPET. For electronic applications we have both anti-static and static dissipative materials. Our clamshells can be made to stand on a shelf and also hang in a display, maximizing consumer appeal while providing options to the retailer. We can also create multi-level and multi-cavity clamshells and blisters to highlight a product`s features. Finally, our package design department and strict quality control measures assure that our customers` products maintain their proper orientation.

Clamshells and Blister Styles
American Built Containment Systems (ABC Systems) is pleased to offer Virtuweld clamshells in our clamshell stocking program. These clamshells have the security and appeal of a welded clamshell with all of the benefits of being unsealed. The unique patented Virtuweld locking system enables the back of the blister to manually snap into the front, using dynamic retention to give a secure, undetectable seal. The stitching effect incorporated into the Virtuweld designs completes the illusion that the blisters are actually sealed- without automation or additional costs. Virtuweld clamshells are versatile and economical, and can be customized to your own specifications or sold as stock items right off the shelf.
The Virtuweld clamshell is suitable for a variety of consumer products in the electronics, hardware, automotive, do-it-yourself, leisure and cellular industries- just to name a few. Your products have total security in the retail environment, without staples, welding, bottlenecks or adhesive tools.
