Description

International Paper Company operates as a leading global packaging enterprise, with its operations spanning the United States, the Middle East, Europe, Africa, the Pacific Rim, Asia, and various other regions of the Americas. The company's business activities are organized into two primary divisions: Industrial Packaging and Global Cellulose Fibers. The Industrial Packaging segment focuses on producing a range of containerboards, including linerboard, medium, whitetop, their recycled equivalents, and saturating kraft. Conversely, the Global Cellulose Fibers segment supplies fluff, market, and specialty pulps. These pulps are integral to a diverse array of products, from absorbent hygiene items such as baby diapers, feminine care, and adult incontinence products, to tissue and paper goods, and non-absorbent applications like textiles, filtration, construction materials, paints, coatings, and reinforced plastics. International Paper employs a multi-channel distribution strategy, selling its products directly to end-users and converters, as well as through a network of agents, resellers, and paper distributors. Established in 1898, the company maintains its corporate headquarters in Memphis, Tennessee.
