Nashua Corporation

[2] In April 2019 the long-run label and receipt paper businesses were sold by Cenveo to Iconex.

The search for a new location led the owners to Nashua, New Hampshire, where they found the heavily indebted Nashua Card and Glazed Paper Company,[4] which had been founded in 1849 as a manufacturer of cardboard and glazed paper.

That year the company also retained its first chemist, adding research and development to the business model.

This reflected an evolution of the company from paper milling to design and print work.

Mainly focused on bubble gum wrappers (3 of the 5 staff designers), the Hershey’s 5 cent candy bars kept the company in business.

The tape products line was then divested as part of Covalence Specialty Materials which later merged with Berry Plastics.

Nashua Corporation was featured in the 1980 NBC White Paper episode If Japan Can... Why Can't We?
