Jefferson County’s “green” paperboard company celebrates 140th anniversary

Having survived the Civil War, the Great Depression, two world wars, and several changes in ownership, the Halltown paperboard manufacturer in Jefferson County marks 140 years of making paper in West Virginia. The Ox Paperboard Co. recycles waste paper from various sources into pulp to make new products. The plant is focusing on recycling local paper products. The company also recycles water used in the papermaking process. Ox Paperboard’s plans for the future call for a nearly $1.5 million capital investment at the facility. ~ www.wvcommerce.org

"The mill started making paper two years before the invention of the light bulb and four years before the invention of the modern motor," said Kevin Hayward, president of Ox Paperboard Co. "You go from the end of the Civil War and the Reconstruction era to the Revolution." ~ The Journal
