Description

About Visy

Visy Industries is owned by the Pratt family and was established in Melbourne, Australia in 1948. It has grown to become one of the world's largest privately owned packaging and recycling companies.

In 2005, Visy employs more than 8,000 people in Australia, New Zealand, and the USA. Total manufacturing revenues exceed $2.8 billion and total manufacturing assets exceed $3 billion.

During its first 30 years of operations Visy Industries' activities concentrated on the manufacture of corrugated cardboard boxes. In 1979 the company made a decision to begin supplying its own packaging paper needs and built its first paper recycling mill. The Visy group now operates eight paper recycling machines - six in Australia and two in the USA. Together these machines produce more than 1.2 million tonnes of 100% recycled packaging paper annually.
