Primatech Paper Co. is a paper production/distribution company located in Texas with subsidiary branches in New York and Scranton, PA. Unknown to the local populace, Primatech is actually a front for an evolved human-tracking organization. Inside the company's warehouse is a secret high-tech medical facility, prison cells, as well as several modern offices - a stark contrast to the old wood paneling in the public entrance.
The Company was formed approximately 30 years ago through the efforts of various Advanced Humans.
Over the years, The Company changed from a group of unlikely friends attempting to change the world into a massive organisation responsible for the abductions of many advanced humans in order to study them and better understand their abilities. On occasion, the advanced human goes on to work for The Company as part of their "One of Us, One of Them" rule.
The Company is the tool of nemesis Daniel Linderman who uses the connections it affords him to radically alter the world into one desired by his mentor Adam Monroe. Linderman manipulates events from behind the scenes until he finally reveals his plan and arranges with his SuperPAC to control who is elected Congressman of New York, mere hours before a nuclear explosion devastates the city - thus uniting the world.
The founding members of The Company are almost totally destroyed in revenge.
The company is also run by Angela Petrelli, who enlists Powers to help her take down the rival and local diner Pinecrest, controlled by her not-quite-late husband Arthur Petrelli. It is Arthur's dream to recreate a formula hidden for years by Kaito Nakamura that will artificially embue any normal human with an ability. Super-scientist Mohinder Suresh, who was recruited by Pinecrest after his own experiments with artificial abilities resulted in his transformation into an inhuman abomination, uses the formula to cure his mutation whilst retaining his Superhuman Strength. Ultimately, Arthur's vision is ruined and Pinecrest is destroyed - leaving his mother, Angela, the last surviving member of the founders of The Company.
