Menasha Corporation

Founder Elisha D. Smith acquired a small, struggling pail factory in Menasha, Wis., in 1852. Over time, he and his descendants transformed their woodenware offerings to keep up with changing markets. The company began producing corrugated boxes in 1927 and added plastic pallets in 1955. Today, Menasha Corporation, based in Neenah, Wis., is a corrugated- and plastic-packaging manufacturer and a supply-chain solutions provider with two operating companies.

Menasha Packaging manufactures corrugated packaging and retail merchandising packaging and displays. It also provides pack-out and fulfillment services. ORBIS Corporation manufactures reusable plastic containers and pallets. ORBIS also tracks, retrieves and cleans reusable packaging as it moves through customers’ supply chains.
