Privately Held Company:

They began as Canadian Bag 1906, expanded to Southern Bag in 1978 and  then grew by acquisition. They bought strategically to acquire technology as they diversified. They have both Paper and plastic packaging plants. They most recently have been expanding into paper by Buying Bemis plants

They began shutting down some Canadian Union Plants  about 5 years ago

Their Professional association profile is empty, shows Madison Mississippi as their HQ.
Maybe thats their US Flag pole, but no contacts there.

Hood Packaging is a quality manufacturer of packaging materials with 20 production facilities located in the United States and Canada. We have grown by acquisition and innovation.  Our oldest, continuously running business, started over 100 years ago in the Jute and Cotton trade and we have expanded our flexible packaging skills into Paper, Plastic, and Woven packaging substrates as more advanced technology has developed for these products.

We are organized along two product types – Paper and Plastic. The Paper Division has 12 geographically diverse locations across the United States and Canada making flexible paper packaging structures with a very wide range of types, formats and closures. The Plastics Division has 8 production locations, again with the broadest possible selection of structures and many with unique applications. Cross selling our products allows us to develop unique product and supply arrangements.

HiIgh 4-ethyl phenol (4-EP) using activated carbon (AC)

-
China Study shows that  highest quality  4-ethyl phenol (4-EP)  was produced at 300 Degrees C Fast pyrolysis of bagasse catalyzed by activated carbon (AC) at low temperatures offered a new and promising way to produce the valuable 4-ethyl phenol (4-EP) compound in high selectivity. In this study, the technique of pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS) was first applied to investigate several factors on the 4-EP production, including biomass type, fast pyrolysis temperature, AC-to-bagasse ratio, and catalytic pattern (in situ or ex situ catalysis). Moreover, fast pyrolysis experiments by using AC catalyst were conducted in a lab-scale setup to quantitatively determine the pyrolytic products. The experimental results indicated that, among these five herbaceous biomass materials, bagasse was the best material to produce 4-vinylphenol (4-VP) from the noncatalytic process and 4-EP from the catalytic fast pyrolysis process, respectively. 4-VP and its prec...

Catalytic Pyrolysis Study

-
This Study seems to be on behalf of the KSA (Kingdom of Saudi Arabia) reaching towards goal of an energy circular economy. Natural Zeolite is a cheap local product there and they wanted to try it out. In the Catalytic process, the catalytic process enhances the target pyrolysis reactions and reduces reaction times and temperature, improves the liquid oil quality and increased the overall process efficiency (quote from a 2012 article). The surface area, acidity,, porce size and volume are key features of the catalyst: list of catalysts tried: FCC, cilica alumina, MCM-41, and zeolites like Y-zeolite, HZSM, and ZSM-5 -FCC microporuse increases liquids, ZSM-5 increases gas yield due to mesoporus structure. Microporus catalysts linit the entrance of higher Hydrocarbons High acidity catalysts increase liquid and decrease gases (2016 study) Zeolite is a new catalyst and is not in many studies ( The Italians I did an article about say they are using zeolite) The study aims to study...
