Green Bay Packaging New Paper Mill Begins Production
Green Bay Packaging Inc. (GBP) announced that the first reel of paper was produced at its new environmentally sustainable paper mill in Green Bay, WI, two and a half years after breaking ground. GBP says the $500 million investment has had a positive impact on Northeast Wisconsin’s economy and the environment.
“These are exciting times at Green Bay Packaging as we ramp up production on our new paper machine. This is the single biggest project in our company’s history, and It certainly would not have been possible without the tireless efforts of our internal people and our many partners and suppliers working together to turn this dream into reality. Not to be overlooked are the many great customers we have, without whom this project would not have been necessary or feasible,” says Will Kress, chairman and CEO of Green Bay Packaging.
