Packaging Is Our Life

Buckeye Corrugated, Inc. Is a privately held, employee owned company with eleven corrugated manufacturing facilities and five sheet feeders, providing an extensive range of corrugated packaging products.

Since our humble beginnings in 1958, BCI has grown tremendously, both in size and in service. This growth has never been more evident than within the past two decades. With great leadership and an even greater team of people, BCI has expanded our capabilities to offer more to our customers while building our reputation for always putting them first. The secret to our success is that we don’t just build boxes – we build relationships – with our customers, with each other, and with our communities.

“We Eat Our Own Cooking”

That may seem like an odd quote for a corrugated packaging company, but hear us out. At BCI, we know that our people create the real value of any business. They’re the creators – the ones providing quality products and services. We’re proudly employee owned and have built a culture of trust where our team of over 850 employee-owners is given a license to lead, empowered to offer solutions and own the results.

The Industry Has Changed – We’ve Evolved

In the past decade, many things have changed in the corrugated packaging industry. Sustainability has become a priority. Online shopping has significantly increased the demand for corrugated products. BCI had two choices to respond to these changes: adapt or keep up the status quo. We chose to not only adapt, but to evolve.

We acquired high-performing, high-quality facilities. We attracted the best talent to be employee-owners. And we continued to build on our ability to offer services others in our industry either won’t or can’t. When others say no, BCI says, “Absolutely, we’ll do it.” And we’ll do it better than anyone else.

BCI is committed to carrying our dedication to excellence well into the future. We’ll continue to focus on our people, products, customers, and communities. We’ll continue to build on what we’ve already created, evolving when needed, but never changing the philosophy that’s gotten us where we are today: Think like customers, act like owners.

Good and honest communication has been the norm from day one with BCI and that, coupled with responsive service/availability of product, are the biggest reasons they are our primary corrugate supplier moving forward.

 “BCI was great to work with. We explained our issue with our current display and the concerns we had. They were able to work with us to come up with a new solution that solved our issues. The new display is more flexible, less expensive and takes us much less time to assemble. We can build twice as many displays per hour now. Great team and customer service.”
