About Acadiana Plastics Molding
Acadiana Plastics Molding operates from New Iberia, Louisiana, where it was founded in 1989 by Kent Byron. The company remains locally owned and operated, with Byron serving as president and chief executive officer. What began as a three-person venture aimed at filling a regional gap—Louisiana food producers previously had to source injection-molded closures from out of state—has grown into a nearly 100-employee operation. The 22-acre facility houses injection molding presses ranging from 60 to 500 tons, capable of producing parts from 0.05 grams to over 1,000 grams. Annual output exceeds 500 million closures in sizes from 10 mm to 48 mm, including continuous-thread and tamper-evident styles with custom lining options. The product line also covers 19 standard PET bottle styles and the patented STAT® Vial, a unit-dose heat-seal package for the respiratory market, supported by an in-house vial printing process. Engineering and design consulting are offered alongside molding. Primary markets include the pepper sauce and condiment sector, where the company says it dominates closure sales, as well as respiratory pharmaceutical packaging and craft beverage brands seeking custom containers. Byron started the business after recognizing that no Southern Louisiana shop specialized in injection-molded plastic closures, forcing local food manufacturers to look elsewhere. The company emphasizes a partnership-oriented service model rather than a purely transactional one, a philosophy it traces back to its founding vision.
