Team Support Technician - Entry Level

Alsip Mini Mill was formed in 2015 when Corrugated Supplies Company purchased the idle lightweight coated paper mill in Alsip, Illinois. Mini Mill Technologies, Inc. took the lead on the engineering, procurement, and construction in order to convert and restart the facility to produce 100% recycled Corrugating Medium. In addition to its profound impact on the local economy, Alsip Mini Mill consumes over 250,000 tons per year of old corrugated containers and clippings, helping to keep these resources out of our landfills.

With 9 locations across the United States, Corrugated Supplies Company is home to the most advanced fleet of corrugators.
