We’ve Got Your Back!

This program was the impetus for the ICG’s founding in 1982. It exists to provide member-to-member assistance in the event of a catastrophe at any member’s manufacturing plant. If an ICG member ever experiences an unforeseen operational disruption, we quickly arrange for backup production to be provided by one or more of our other members — so that all orders can still be fulfilled. It gives peace of mind for our members and enables the customers of ICG member companies to have confidence that they will have a consistent, reliable source for packaging.

Keep Your Prices Competitive

All members are part of the ICG buying consortium, which was formed in 1999. Today, the ICG negotiates contracts with over 40 reputable vendors for things like equipment, paperboard, ink, and many other types of supplies. By negotiating contracts as a group, rather than as individual companies, we can capture volume discounts that help our members keep their costs down. Our members can offer competitive pricing by merely passing their savings on to customers.

Membership Meetings

Networking with other similar folding carton companies is one of the biggest benefits of being an ICG member. Our member community is open to sharing ideas and applicable solutions from production to running your operations. In additional to annual in-person meetings, in response to COVID-19 we’ve taken our networking virtual via regularly scheduled Zoom sessions.

From “Cocktail Conversations” to “Technical Meetings” you will find topics and discussions on a wide range of areas that help your business grow!

Insider Technical Tips for Production

Our Technical Conferences bring the latest trends an technologies to each ICG Member company via private online or in-person training sessions.

The topics range from production techniques to practical business management and everything in between.

Trusted Suppliers

At it’s onset, one of the main initiatives behind the ICG was providing our members with purchasing power. We’ve setup significant buying programs for a range of consumable supplies from ink to paper and beyond.
