Golden West Packaging Group has announced the expansion of its packaging platform through the creation of a dedicated Lithographic Packaging Division, along with three executive leadership appointments supporting the company’s continued growth.
Corrugated packaging remains the foundation of Golden West’s business. The new Lithographic Packaging Division brings together the company’s folding carton and single-face lamination operations, expanding Golden West’s capabilities and providing customers with a broader portfolio of packaging solutions from a single trusted mill-independent partner.
The Lithographic Packaging Division builds on Golden West’s continued investment in people, advanced manufacturing technologies, and operational excellence, expanding the company’s ability to help customers grow through innovative packaging solutions.
“Golden West has always been a corrugated packaging company focused on helping customers solve problems,” said Mark Favre, Chief Executive Officer. “Every investment we make is intended to expand the ways we help our customers succeed. The creation of our Lithographic Packaging Division gives us more opportunities to bring creative ideas, broader capabilities, and greater flexibility to every packaging challenge. It allows us to be a more complete packaging partner, delivering a wider range of innovative solutions through one trusted relationship. That’s what makes Golden West different.”
