It was back in 1902, when paper products were just beginning to emerge, that Clarence T, Brigham saw a future in the line. At that time, the only paper cup on the market was a flat type found in dispensers near water fountains. Grocers made their own "shopping bags" by rolling a flat sheet of paper into a cone shape. Paper towels? ...only one type, rather coarse was available.

Originally a North Adams MA broom manufacturer, Clarence Brigham closed his shop and moved to Pittsifeld, MA, where he started a paper products supply business. Incorporated in 1917, the business flourished, with continual growth.

Today, C.T. Brigham Co. has now grown into one of the area's largest distributors of paper and plastics products, custodial supplies, office products and technology. At our present loction on East Street in Pittsfield, we offer the personal knowledgeable service that has been the foundation of our success since 1902.
