Liquids, Beverages & Sauces — McClary Industries
Line of Business · 02

Liquids, Beverages
& Sauces

Aseptic, hot-fill, cold-fill, HTST, tunnel pasteurization, and retort — across cans, bottles, BIB, pouches, cups, and drums. All three TTB licenses on premises.

What We Make

Founder-level liquid expertise.

Few contract manufacturers hold all three TTB licenses. Even fewer carry leadership with founder-level experience designing and operating FDA-grade hot-fill production. McClary holds both — anchored by senior leadership with prior Research Fellow tenure at a category-defining beverage and ingredients enterprise, paired with founder-CEO operating depth across functional beverages, hydration, RTD protein, and shelf-stable formats.

Formats & Options

Every process. Every format. Every beverage category.

From sparkling RTDs in slim cans to bulk sauce in bag-in-box, our liquid network spans the full range of beverage and sauce formats. Our liquid leadership team combines former VP-level beverage development across a global supplement and ingredients enterprise with founder-CEO operating experience in FDA-grade hot-fill production — now integrated into the network at $20M+ scale.

All three TTB licenses (Spirits, Malt, Wine) operate on premises — a credential held by very few contract manufacturers. Whether you’re launching a hard seltzer, a wine-based RTD, a botanical spirit, or a craft cocktail line, alcohol production is integrated rather than outsourced.
