How Business Synergies Transcend Client-Vendor Boundaries with International Paper
Among the great manufacturing giants steering U.S. industry for over a century, International Paper is renowned for its enduring commitment to operational excellence, innovation, ethics, and stewardship.
Supporting IP’s productivity at several locations nationwide is a crucial collaborator: OpenWorks. This strategic partnership has helped IP consistently and confidently maintain its facilities and illustrates how cleaned, disinfected, and safe facilities support IP’s brand promise.
Expertise to Meet IP’s Next-Level Expectations
A 99% customer retention rate speaks volumes to a global organization like International Paper. Leadership shouldn’t have to be overly bothered by budget items like janitorial services. They just need to know their sites are consistently clean, teammates are safe, risks are minimized, and regulators are happy.
To support IP and other significant manufacturing and warehouse operations, OpenWorks employs a comprehensive approach, encompassing cutting-edge technology, professionally trained personnel, and industry best practices to keep facilities operating smoothly without interruptions from accidents or an unhappy workforce.
“One size fits all” is rarely true in any business, but mainly when OpenWorks works with International Paper. Moreover, when commercial cleaning companies do take a one-size-fits-all approach, danger lurks just around the corner.
Tailored cleaning and maintenance solutions are developed to address each venue individually while considering the unique challenges the paper and packaging industry poses. By deploying state-of-the-art cleaning techniques and adhering to rigorous safety protocols, OpenWorks shares International Paper's commitment to quality.

Moreover, a commitment to workforce diversity and inclusivity echoes IP’s values. By fostering a diverse team of local cleaning professionals and providing them with comprehensive training and development opportunities, OpenWorks exemplifies the principles of fairness and inclusivity integral to International Paper's corporate identity.
