First opened in late 2024, the Jeffersonville facility will continue to scale throughout 2025 with machinery to enter new market segments. The company said that the new printing and automated production systems reinforce itself as an emerging leader in corrugated solutions.

The company also offers graphic and structural design support with in-house designers and design suite options.
Tailored solutions include custom board grades, specific ECT or Mullen ratings, combo runs, and unique style modifications.
Types and styles include 500+ stock box SKUs, custom die cuts, point of purchase displays, regular slotted containers (RSC), half slotted containers (HSC), full overlaps (FOL), single, double, and triple wall gaylords, 5-panel boxes, pallet layer pads, box partitions, one piece folders, and digital printing and signage capabilities.
