The concept of “taking care of our people” stems from the family values on which we built our business.
We now have more than 6,400 employees in over 100 facilities across the United States, Canada, Mexico and Europe. Each one of them is important to us. We strive to provide them with a safe and comfortable work environment that meets their needs while maximizing efficiency.
We also take pride in giving back to the communities in which we do business.

Menasha Corporation Foundation
Menasha Corporation has been a passionate supporter of worthy community projects and organizations for more than a century. Founder Elisha D. Smith’s philanthropic efforts helped less fortunate families and educational institutions far beyond the company’s hometown of Menasha, WI.
In 1953, Menasha’s ongoing corporate philanthropy led to the establishment of the Menasha Corporation Foundation. The corporation serves as the primary source of funding. One of our five focus areas is environmental concerns.
Each year, our employees volunteer to help build a home through Habitat for Humanity for the Fox Cities. The Foundation has been supporting Habitat for Humanity of the Fox Cities for more than a decade. By volunteering with Habitat, our employees are demonstrating their commitment to live the corporation’s values and fulfill its mission, make a difference in our community and improve the lives of others by helping provide a safe and affordable home to a deserving family.
ORBIS Corporation’s employees have formed Community Action Teams at its facilities to help make a positive difference in the health and welfare of the communities in which the employees live and work. Each year, ORBIS allocates funds to support non-profit groups, agencies and causes in communities that are in need of financial support, volunteers or donated goods.
