Vernon Business Spotlight and ! ✨The PABCO Paper plant has been part of Vernon’s industrial history for more than a century. Built in 1912, the facility was originally known as Southern Board and Paper Mills. In the 1920s, it became a division of Fibreboard Products, and in 1977, it was sold to a local packaging company.
In 1984, Pacific Coast Building Products purchased the mill, which began operating as PABCO Paper. Today, PABCO Paper produces products for the building and packaging industries, using pre- and post-consumer recycled materials to create wallboard lining and specialty papers.
We are proud to spotlight businesses like PABCO Paper that continue to contribute to Vernon’s strong industrial legacy and commitment to innovation and sustainability. www.pabcopaper.com
