U.S. Corrugated, a box manufacturer that uses recovered fiber, is opening a “super plant” in Indiana in coming months, with more new capacity coming in the future.
The company operates a handful of corrugated packaging plants around the U.S. and Mexico. It was acquired earlier this year by McKinley Paper Co., itself a subsidiary of North American fiber giant Bio Pappel.
U.S. Corrugated selected Lebanon, Ind. for a new “state-of-the-art super plant” scheduled to start up by the end of the year. The company has not announced a capacity figure for the facility. According to fiber research firm RISI (subscription required), besides the Indiana plant, U.S. Corrugated is planning another plant in Texas in the years to come, as well as a third new facility in central Mexico.
