Cascades Inc. CADNF

CADNF Company Overview

Cascades Inc. is a Canada-based packaging, hygiene, and recovery company that manufactures, converts, and markets products primarily made from recycled fiber. The company operates in the paper and forest products industry, with activities spanning containerboard, specialty packaging, tissue products, and recycling services. Cascades generates most of its revenue through the production and sale of corrugated packaging, boxboard, flexible packaging, and tissue products used by industrial, commercial, and consumer customers across North America.

The company’s primary operating activities are organized around Packaging Products and Tissue Papers businesses, supported by an integrated recovery and recycling network. Cascades is recognized for its long-standing focus on recycled fiber integration and circular economy practices, which has historically differentiated it within the North American packaging sector. Founded in 1964 by brothers Bernard, Laurent, and Alain Lemaire in Quebec, the company evolved from a regional paper recycler into a multinational packaging manufacturer through organic expansion, mill modernization, and acquisitions across Canada and the United States.
