[In 1929,] the first packaging association was founded by the Marathon Corporation and named the Paraffin Carton Association. The name was eventually changed to the Institute for Better Packaging (IBP). ... As technology advanced, the IBP, which had been formed primarily to represent producers of packaging for oily and frozen food products, realized that the industry was growing beyond its original mission. ... IBT saw the need to merge [with the Folding Paper Box Association of America (FPBAA)]. By 1963, a research committee recommended a new association be formed from the two original organizations, and on April 29, 1964 the Paperboard Packaging Council officially formed to speak and act on behalf of the entire folding carton industry.
