 PROFILE
As Packaging Corporation of America (PCA) can attest, it pays to know how to box. The company makes some 2.2 million tons of containerboard annually, most of which it turns into corrugated boxes and containers. PCA is a leading producer of shipping containers, including meat boxes and wax-lined boxes for the agricultural industry. The company also offers multicolor packaging and displays through five graphic design centers. Its operations include 65 corrugated product plants, four mills, and three sawmills. To support its mills, PCA lease the cutting rights to about 140,000 acres of timberland in Georgia and Tennessee. Directors Justin Huscher, Samuel Mencoff, and Thomas Souleles together own about 42% of PCA.
