Honoring the legacy of John Packard and eight decades of serving families, businesses, and communities
For 80 years, Packard Culligan Water has helped families and businesses enjoy cleaner, safer, better-tasting water. As we celebrate the 80th birthday of John Packard and 80 years of serving customers, we’re reflecting on the values that continue to guide our company today.
At Packard Culligan Water, all we do is water. That singular focus has defined who we are for 80 years. While others have expanded into countless products and services, we’ve dedicated ourselves to understanding water, solving water challenges, and delivering water solutions people can trust.
But growth was never the end goal. What has always mattered most is the customer experience. Every water softener installed, every reverse osmosis system maintained, every delivery completed, and every service call answered is an opportunity to improve someone’s daily life. That’s because water touches nearly everything we do. Whether it’s helping a family enjoy better drinking water, supporting a business’s operations, or serving communities with dependable service, our work makes a meaningful difference every day.
Over the past 80 years, the water industry has evolved dramatically. Technologies have advanced, customer expectations have changed, and new water challenges have emerged. Through it all, Packard Culligan Water has remained focused on one simple goal: serving people through better water. Today, as a third-generation family business, we continue to build on the legacy of Wayne Packard, John Packard, and now Derek Packard. While each generation has guided the company through growth and change, our mission remains unchanged: Elevate people’s lives through better water.
As we celebrate 80 years of John and 80 years of Packard Culligan Water, we’re grateful for the employees, customers, and communities who have been part of this journey. Because water is all we do. And for 80 years, we’ve been committed to doing it exceptionally well.
