WSI serves wood pulp and paper processors to paper product manufacturers. Over the years, our company has managed warehouses for top brands of paper towels, toilet paper, and sanitary products as well as copy paper, newsprint and specialty paper products. More than a warehousing company, WSI provides fulfillment, supply chain management and transportation of bulk paper products and other materials such as timber, lumber, corrugate and pulp.
We offer different types of warehousing for the paper industry, from private and contract warehouses to large fulfillment centers. Our warehouse locations have access to rail and ground transportation to support transloading, cross docking, and on time delivery.
Challenges remain in the supply chain for the paper industry post-pandemic. A shortage continues on everything related to paper stock to raw materials to process paper products. High demand for cardboard, packaging, household paper goods and printed media require a fulfillment partner skilled in the paper supply chain. As a result, storage space requirements can fluctuate in the paper industry – sometimes varying as much as 50K square feet from one month to the next. WSI offers much-needed flexibility thanks to our large network of warehouses, specializing in bulk storage.
With over 50 years of experience handling every type of paper product, WSI is a leader in paper logistics. We partner with some of the country’s largest paper producers to support the complete supply chain.
