TC Transcontinental Packaging to close Tomah (WI) converting plant in February 2024

North American packaging and printing powerhouse TC Transcontinental will phase out operations at its Tomah (Wisconsin) packaging plant in anticipation of the complete closure of the facility in early February 2024. Operations will gradually be transferred to TC Transcontinental Packaging’s plants in Battle Creek (MI), Clinton (MO), Elgin (IL), Lenexa (KS) and Spartanburg (SC) to ensure a smooth transition for customers.

“In line with our priority of optimizing the return on our assets, reducing costs and improving operational efficiency, we have made the decision, after thorough consideration, to close our Tomah plant. Serving our customers in the most competitive manner is something we are constantly evaluating and taking action on,” says Jeff Lasley, senior vp-Dairy, Protein and Pet Food (DPP), Latin America and New Zealand, TC Transcontinental Packaging.

“We regret the impact of this decision on our employees who have been a strong team of contributors since the acquisition of the plant by TC Transcontinental in 2018. We thank our 89 employees and will ensure they receive the respect they deserve, including support in their career transition.”

TC Transcontinental is a leader in flexible packaging in North America, and Canada’s largest printer.
