“The BoxMaker continues to lead innovation in packag- ing with successive investments in HP digital corrugated printing. Choosing a second HP PageWide C500 press is a vote of confidence and a significant step ahead that will enable The BoxMaker to transform the corrugated market with productive, on-demand printing and capture business in this growing market,” said David Tomer, General Manag- er, Post-Print Corrugated, HP PageWide Industrial. The BoxMaker, an early adopter of HP digital print technology, also operates an HP Scitex 17000 corrugated press and two HP Indigo web presses for labels and fold- ing cartons. The HP PageWide C500 Press is a digital post-print solution that enables corrugated converters to reduce the cost of manufacturing boxes in scaled volume production. It provides offset print quality for a wide range of corrugat- ed packaging applications on both coated and uncoated paper, with water-based inks, for low to high number of sheets. The C500 press brings benefits of digital printing, with no limitation of Minimum-Order-Quantity (MOQ), flex- ibility, accelerated time to market, and reduction of waste and inventory with no need to compromise on print quality.

The awards were digitally presented to the winners through Zoom. The annual awards program is designed to honor and recognize outstanding individu- als, programs, and organizations around the country, both for their achievements, and to serve as a model and a re- source for learning for NRC members. “Green Bay Packaging is honored to be recognized as a leader and innovator for our recycling and diversion business practices and operations,” said Matt Szymanski, VP of Mill Operations. “We are grateful to be the recip- ient of the 2020 National Recycling Coalition award for our innovative cradle to cradle and closed-loop recycling achievements. We are proud of our team for their support and commitment to sustainability.” Green Bay Packaging’s containerboard mill is a fully in- tegrated pulp and paper mill that produces linerboard and corrugated medium in the full spectrum of basis weights using 100 percent post-consumer recycled fiber. GBP partners with customers to optimize the collection of old corrugated containers (OCC) recovered in their recycling processes, diverting 2.25 million cubic yards of solid was away from landfills in 2019. That effort regenerates cor- rugated shipping containers with fewer resources while reducing their carbon footprint.
