The day has finally come. After over 35 years of growth and exceptional customer service, Viking Packing Specialist has outgrown its facility where it all began. In 1979, Viking began as a crating company serving local manufacturers and quickly became known for its fast, reliable, and professional services. It later branched out into the aviation industry by offering ATA plastic containers and hazmat packaging services. Viking’s success and reputation have led to its exponential growth, and to continue satisfying customer demands, opened up a new facility and headquarters located in Tulsa’s Port of Catoosa. So, the time has come to bid a bittersweet farewell to the facility which started it all and to look forward to all of our future endeavors.
Viking Packing Specialist is excited to announce we are expanding our facility! In order to satisfy the growing demand of our customer’s needs, we are nearly doubling the size our current operations. We are adding 42,000 square feet to our plant for more storage and manufacturing space, as well as 3,000 square feet of office space. We are also adding 177,000 square feet of concrete yard space. The new space will be climate controlled and will house our crating department, freeing up more space for inventory management of our customer’s goods. The building will be 105,000 square feet once complete! Continue visiting our site to view our progress as we grow.
Viking Packing Specialist is excited to announce a new partnership with Geoff Leach and the Dangerous Goods Office Limited in the United Kingdom. Geoff recently left the UK Civil Aviation Authority after 32 years’ service, 23 of which were spent working in dangerous goods. He was the UK member of the ICAO Dangerous Goods Panel since 2002 and Chairman from 2007 to 2014. Our alliance will enable Viking clients to benefit from Geoff’s extensive experience in regulatory activities and development of international requirements. Please visit his website at www.dgo-uk.com
