History
Founded in 1945, Cell-O-Core® first produced child safe sucker sticks from cellophane.
From there, we grew into drink stirrers, and then later into drinking straws.
Today, we are proud to be the largest independent drinking straw producer in North America.
And as the official, exclusive manufacturer of eco-friendly AgaveX and PlanetStraw, we are greener than ever.
Let’s grow together.
