 PROFILE
You give Rock-Tenn the product, they'll provide the packaging. The company, one of North America's leading folding carton makers, produces packaging (about 50% of sales) for food, paper goods, hardware, apparel, and other consumer goods. It uses recycled and virgin paperboard to make these products and also converts paperboard for use in book covers, furniture, and automotive components. Other products include plastic packaging, specialty corrugated packaging, and point-or-purchase displays. Rock-Tenn also sells recycled paperboard to other US companies. Former CEO Bradley Currey, his family, and the Brown family (which includes the daughter of Arthur Morris, who founded the company in 1936) control Rock-Tenn.
