Your experienced partner in flexible and tailored packaging solutions, WG offers packaging supplies and equipment.
Our Belvidere facility is just 10 miles from Rockford, IL. The area's rich manufacturing history dates back over 150 years and would eventually become known as the Fastener Capital of the World. This is why Raymond Pierce decided to build his business here in the 1950s. Fast forward to 2018 and Pierce Box and Paper officially joined the Welch Packaging family.
In 2024, Pierce rebranded to WG Diversified Packaging with the intention of highlighting their diversity of packaging solutions and equipment offerings. Today, the team services a large geographic area with sales reps across the United States.
