Buckeye Corrugated Inc. (BCI) is giving its Houston co-packing business a home of its own, opening a dedicated contract packaging and fulfillment facility to keep pace with rising demand for integrated packaging, assembly, and fulfillment.
Best known for American-made corrugated packaging and retail-ready point-of-purchase displays, BCI has built a contract packaging business on that foundation. Its programs include promotional packaging, retail compliance, and logistics coordination for customers in consumer goods, food and beverage, healthcare, personal care, club stores, and ecommerce.
The new site delivers more than 60,000 sq ft of operating space. Services that once shared room within BCI’s Houston Division now have space to grow, with significantly more capacity and flexibility for complex, high-volume programs, says BCI leadership.
“This expansion gives our Houston team the dedicated space and resources to provide customers with a more comprehensive and scalable solution,” said Jess Stitzel, General Manager, BCI Houston. “By bringing packaging, assembly and fulfillment capabilities together, we can help customers simplify their operations, improve consistency and move products to market more efficiently.”
BCI’s co-packing portfolio covers product assembly and kitting, labeling and coding, repacking and shrink wrapping, product insertion, retail display assembly, palletization, quality control, and fulfillment preparation. That range handles one-off projects and product launches as readily as seasonal promotions, retail programs, and ongoing production.
Because the operation sits alongside BCI’s corrugated manufacturing and corrugated structural design work, customers can take a package from development through production and distribution with one supplier, reducing handoffs between vendors.
Located near the Port of Houston, the facility is close to major distribution centers, warehouses, and transportation infrastructure, which BCI says positions it to serve regional, national, and international supply chains. Customers can receive components, complete packaging and assembly, and prepare finished goods for shipment in a single building, reducing handling and the number of logistics steps between suppliers.
