About Petoskey Plastics
Founded in 1970 in Petoskey, Michigan, Petoskey Plastics has spent over five decades establishing itself as one of North America's most trusted manufacturers of engineered polyethylene films and bags. What started with a single bag machine and five employees has grown into a multi-site operation with manufacturing facilities in Michigan, Tennessee, Indiana, and Texas — all dedicated to producing high-performance plastic products for automotive, industrial, institutional, and medical markets.
In the automotive world, Petoskey Plastics is best known for its Slip-N-Grip® line of vehicle protection products, a brand widely recognized in professional auto service environments. These products are specifically engineered to keep customer vehicles clean during oil changes, tire rotations, detailing, and other service work. The multi-layer construction that defines the Slip-N-Grip line reflects the same materials science that Petoskey applies across all of its product categories — durable enough to do the job, yet designed with waste reduction and recycled content in mind.
Sustainability is embedded in Petoskey Plastics' DNA. The company first began in-house recycling in 1978 and has never stopped innovating in this area. Their Greencore® product line uses up to 70% post-consumer recycled plastic, and their proprietary GreenPE® resin is manufactured at a dedicated recycling and distribution facility in Hartford City, Indiana. Petoskey's unique 3- and 5-layer film technology allows them to integrate recycled materials without sacrificing performance.
For auto service professionals and detail-conscious vehicle owners alike, Petoskey Plastics offers a range of interior protection solutions. Their seat covers shield upholstery from grease and grime during service visits, while disposable floor mats protect carpets and provide a professional presentation that customers notice. The iconic Slip-N-Grip steering wheel covers are a staple in service bays across the country, keeping wheels clean and communicating a commitment to quality care. For shop owners looking to protect their workspace, Petoskey also offers garage floor protection mats built from the same durable polyethylene film technology that defines the brand.
As a privately held, family-owned company headquartered on the shores of Lake Michigan, Petoskey Plastics combines the accountability of a small business with the manufacturing capability and quality standards of an industry leader. Their products are stocked by major automotive retailers nationwide, making Slip-N-Grip supplies easy to find for shops of all sizes.
