The Independent Carton Group (ICG) is pleased to announce its two newest members: Jones Packaging of London, Ontario, and Wausau Container of Wausau, Wis. Both companies were approved for ICG membership during the group’s recent general membership meeting in Clayton, N.C., which was hosted by ICG member 3C Packaging. The ICG was founded with five members in 1982, and with the two additions, the group now has 19 independently owned and operated folding carton manufacturers on its member roster.
“Jones and Wausau are welcome additions to our tight-knit group. Like many members, both are family-owned, with solid business values and a strong desire to engage with their industry peers for the benefit of all,” said Jay Willie, executive director of the Independent Carton Group. “This isn’t a group in which members can be casual observers, and we’re much more than a purchasing consortium. It’s clear that Jones and Wausau buy into the ICG’s position as a sharing group. We encourage their contributions to the group and look forward to supporting their growth.”
