In 1963 Alan Johnson founded Johnson Packaging to meet the needs of a rapidly growing snack foods industry. A passion for design, detail and customer service led to the opening of Johnson Laminating & Coating in 1973. The company evolved during the '70s. The focus became precision products including optical clear window films that so many others find difficult to manufacture.

Johnson was primarily a private-label supplier to distributors worldwide. In the late '80s we decided to "come out of the shadows" and branded our product directly as Johnson Window Films. In the early '90s, we set up a separate distribution operation under the same name to focus on meeting the specific needs of window film professionals. We have been speaking with, listening to and directly supporting installers ever since.
