Corrugated Supplies Company

Family-owned American sheet feeder founded in 1964, manufacturing and distributing corrugated, colour pre-printed and fanfold sheets, with 12 corrugators across nine plants and its own recycled paper mill.

Corrugated Supplies Company is an independent manufacturer and distributor of corrugated cardboard sheets, serving sheet plants and point-of-purchase display customers across the United States. Founded in 1964 and headquartered in Bedford Park, Illinois, the company describes itself as America's largest independent sheet feeder. It produces more than 15 billion square feet of packaging a year, operating 12 corrugators across nine manufacturing locations - up from the two corrugators at a single site with which it began.

The product range covers standard corrugated sheets, colour pre-printed sheets for packaging and display, and fanfold products. The company also runs CSCLive™, a proprietary online ordering portal that gives customers visibility and control of orders from creation through to delivery. Technical work therefore spans corrugator production, colour pre-printing, recycled paper milling and in-house ordering software.

Vertical integration extends to raw material: a MiniMill in Alsip, Illinois, makes 100% recycled corrugated medium from waste paper collected at the company's own facilities, and holds SFI Chain of Custody certification. Corrugated Supplies Company remains family-owned. Founder Richard (Dick) Van Horne Jr. pioneered the corrugated sheet feeder concept; CEO John Potocsnak took controlling ownership in 2002 and oversaw expansion into new facilities across the country.
