Norampac Inc. announces the acquisition of the shares of Johnson Corrugated Products Corp., a corrugated products plant in Thompson, Ct.
The facility has an annual capacity of more than 750 million square feet. Founded in 1964, this independent corrugated plant specializes in the production manufacture of all kinds of corrugated boxes: from the traditional, multi-purpose regular slotted box, to the die-cut box or extra large box. Its strategic location in the heart of New England will allow the plant to draw on the synergies of the Buffalo, New York, Leominster and Schenectady plants.
"This new acquisition is an interesting opportunity for us to increase our presence in the Northeastern United States and fits perfectly with our development strategy," explains Marc-Andre Depin, Norampac Inc. president and CEO.
Norampac owns eight containerboard mills and twenty-five corrugated products plants in Canada, the United States and France. With an annual production capacity of more than 1.6 million short tons, Norampac is the largest containerboard producer in Canada and the seventh largest in North America.
