International Paper Company is a global leader in the production of renewable fiber-based packaging. Headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee, the company operates an extensive network of mills and converting facilities across North America, Europe, Latin America, and North Africa. Its core Industrial Packaging segment produces linerboard, medium, whitetop, and saturating kraft, which are converted into corrugated boxes and shipping containers. In 2025, the company significantly expanded its European footprint by acquiring British packaging firm DS Smith. Concurrently, International Paper divested its Global Cellulose Fibers business in early 2026 to focus entirely on its packaging operations. The company serves a diverse customer base across the e-commerce, consumer goods, agriculture, and industrial manufacturing sectors.
