Case Paper Hires New GM for Philly

Thomas McDonough joined the Case Paper (Harrison, N.Y., USA) team in February 2019 as the first GM of the company’s Philadelphia division who is not a Philadelphia sports fanatic.

"We have a hardworking, dedicated team in Philadelphia, so we’re thrilled that Tom is now managing and leading this division. And we promise not to hold it against him that he’s a Jets fan," explained Case Paper’s Simon Schaffer, CMO and VP of New Business Development.

For the last decade and a half, Tom was an executive manager for Bilcare Research and Tekni-Plex Inc., pharmaceutical packaging and specialty film manufacturers. At these companies, he executed commercial and operational initiatives at local, national, and multi-national levels.

Prior to that, he was responsible for operations in the ink and coatings industries as well as the commercial textile wallcovering and upholstery markets. He has a broad background in business management, as well as experience in web handling, printing, slitting, sheeting, lamination, extrusion, and thermoforming.

"His manufacturing experience, combined with over a decade of managerial success, will help us streamline operations so we can enhance our service platform and plan for the future," said Robin Schaffer, CEO and President of Case Paper.
