Paper Bags / Waxed Paper

Marcal's Chicago Division manufactures roll waxed paper, interfold waxed paper, sandwich wrap, bakery tissue, lunch bags, examination rolls, pan liners, waxed bags, and specialty printed food wrap. It sells branded and private label products to both the food service and retail channels.

In 1998 a modern super calendering machine was installed in the Chicago plant  to provide the capability to densify paper used for food wrapping. Super calendering results in a waxed sheet having a more desireable, translucent appearance while improving its usefulness for food wrapping.
