Sonic Packaging Industries, Inc. has been recognized by Medtech Business Review Magazine as the exclusive recipient of “Top Contract Packaging and Filling Services 2025,” based on our proprietary methodology, reflecting its position in the industry. This profile has been developed by the Medtech Business Review research and editorial team based on insights from an interview with Harry Paulison, President.


Harry Paulison, PresidentA packaging partner with deep knowledge of complex formulations and regulations can accelerate timelines and streamline processes without interruption. Sonic Packaging delivers that advantage as a custom, full turnkey contract packaging and filling solutions provider. Drawing on three decades of experience in the packaging industry, Sonic seamlessly manages the entire process, from design, prototyping and regulatory documentation to trials and final production.
Sonic, together with its fully qualified strategic manufacturing partners, each holding advanced certifications, strengthens and streamlines the entire quality and compliance process. This enables the company to serve clients that market products in a variety of categories, including pharmaceuticals, medical devices, cosmetics, diagnostics, nutraceuticals and personal care. Sonic’s expertise spans unit-dose and multi-count packaging, covering applications from sachets and blisters to thermoformed trays, injection-molded units and towelettes.
“We have built a strong understanding of client needs and often become their go-to team for everything from design to compliance and development. The stronger the connection, the better the outcome,” says Harry Paulison, president.
Clients rely on Sonic for various needs, from new product launches and brand extensions to kit systems, particularly when they lack the infrastructure to navigate complex packaging or regulatory requirements. Sonic’s team of subject matter experts works closely with clients, R&D, Quality, regulatory and marketing groups, establishing structure and clarity throughout the project lifecycle.
The team’s personal, hands-on approach is reflected in how it manages every aspect of a project, from sourcing and procurement of components to batch record execution and finished product release. Clients are relieved of the complexities of supply chain management through close alignment with trusted partners and expert regulatory guidance on material biocompatibility, product stability, package or analytical testing and compliance documentation.
This is powered by its network of long-standing relationships with several strategic manufacturing partners, some of whom have worked with the company for over two decades. Each partner is carefully qualified and audited annually to ensure compliance is current. Material sourcing is handled directly, including bottles, jars, blisters, flexible films and secondary components. The streamlined process ensures clients have a single point of contact, eliminating the need to coordinate with multiple vendors or risk compatibility gaps and reducing costs.
Sonic provides consultative advice throughout the packaging journey, frequently suggesting solutions that are more cost-effective, operationally efficient and aligned with long-term scalability. With these insights, Sonic aligns the project requirements with the right manufacturing partner based on client needs and desired outcomes, whether it involves cGMP requirements, ISO 13485 certification for medical devices or NSF-audited facilities for nutrition-based products.
Case in point, when a client faced a production interruption after their previous CDMO withdrew from syringe system production, Sonic stepped in to their rescue. The product had already been out of stock for nearly a year, and multiple attempts with other facilities had failed due to product complexity, regulatory compliance and material sourcing issues.
Sonic secured critical components, developed stability and biocompatibility plans and coordinated regulatory submissions. The product was successfully relaunched by leveraging its technical expertise and collaboration with the client’s R&D and compliance teams.
“We step in when projects have stalled and can carry them through to full compliance and production. It is our consistent coordination, sourcing expertise and regulatory diligence that truly make the difference for our clients,” says Susan Spillane, Vice President of Technical Sales, Quality and Regulatory.
Every engagement begins with a structured scoping discussion called a Sonic Session, where the team asks targeted and probing questions about product requirements, compliance expectations, stability conditions, environmental criteria, artwork development and sourcing challenges. Projects then move through six structured phases, covering initial scoping, prototype development, regulatory review, validation, full production and shipment. Each phase is documented through systems aligned with ISO standards, reinforced by FDA medical device registration.
Dedicated project teams manage continuity across every stage. They ensure that inquiries are acknowledged within 24 hours, whether it is a startup with a single SKU or a large corporation with complex packaging portfolios across hundreds of SKUs and multiple categories.
Sonic serves a diverse clientele of small, medium and large businesses, including Fortune 50 companies. Keen to expand its services, Sonic entered the point-of-care and at-home health markets, offering expanded services that support products such as adhesive removal wipes and diagnostic kit packaging solutions, empowering patients to manage more routine medical tasks independently. This expansion directly responds to the rising demand for reliable and safe healthcare options beyond traditional settings.
Sonic takes a hands-on approach that connects every detail from design to delivery and transforms complex ideas into market-ready products. The company’s continued focus on strategic execution, operational excellence and brand partnership cements its role as a reliable partner for companies navigating highly competitive markets.
