Paper Converting Machine Company (PCMC), of Green Bay, WI, USA, has received the Manufacturing Award of Distinction, which honors excellence in manufacturing in Northeast Wisconsin. The award is sponsored by Advance, the economic development arm of the Green Bay Area Chamber of Commerce, and was presented November 14.

“This award is a result of the incredible work and commitment of all 800 PCMC associates in Green Bay and reaffirms our belief that through leadership, empowerment and continuous improvement, we will continue to realize our vision of a great American manufacturing company,” says Craig Compton, vice president of operations.

Following its regional win, PCMC has been nominated by Advance for the Wisconsin Manufacturer of the Year (MOTY) Award.
