Business
International Paper Company (NYSE: IP; LSE: IPC) is a global leader in sustainable fiber-based packaging solutions, producing corrugated packaging, containerboard, and related products that protect goods, facilitate commerce, and support recycling initiatives. The company offers a comprehensive portfolio including industrial packaging such as corrugated boxes and containerboard for e-commerce, food and beverage, manufacturing, retail, consumer goods, agriculture, and industrial sectors; pulp products for tissue, diapers, feminine care, incontinence, and personal care applications prior to recent divestiture; printing papers; consumer packaging; and recycling services encompassing collection, transportation, sorting, and distribution of recovered fiber and materials. International Paper operates manufacturing facilities, mills, and converting plants in North America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and other regions across more than 30 countries, serving diverse customer bases with vertically integrated operations from fiber sourcing to finished packaging. Founded in 1898 through the merger of pulp and paper mills in the northeastern United States and headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee, with EMEA headquarters in London, UK, the company manages extensive forestlands and employs over 65,000 team members worldwide. It maintains a focus on renewable resources, sustainability, and circular economy solutions, transforming wood fiber and recovered paper into essential products while emphasizing safety, ethics, and operational excellence. In 2025, International Paper completed its acquisition of DS Smith for approximately $5.8 billion (£5.8 billion), creating a premier sustainable packaging provider with enhanced presence in North America and EMEA regions and projected annual synergies of at least $514 million. The company reached a definitive agreement to sell its Global Cellulose Fibers business to American Industrial Partners for $1.5 billion, expected to close by year-end, sharpening its focus as a pure-play packaging entity. Additional strategic changes include a $250 million investment to convert the Riverdale mill in Selma, Alabama, for containerboard production by third-quarter 2026; permanent closures of the Riceboro and Savannah containerboard mills, Savannah packaging facility, and related operations by September 2025, reducing capacity by about one million tons annually; and exit from the molded fiber business, alongside other North American footprint optimizations to boost cost efficiency and customer service.
