Trioplast Industrier has divested its business in conversion of cardboard and plastic bags, Ekmans Jönköping, to Schur International.
The take-over takes place October 1, 2016.
For Trioplast Industrier is the divestment of Ekmans Jönköping part of the strategy to refine the activity towards products and solutions within polyethylene film. Trioplast, with a turnover of over 4 billion SEK, has invested 500 MSEK in innovative technology during the last 3 years. The divestment of Ekmans enables development that creates value for our customers. This will also reinforce Trioplast´s position as market leader in products and service solutions within its segments.
Ekmans is a well established packaging business which has been known for delivery of high quality and service to a stable clientele in food, industry, and retail. The change of ownership is a part of the growth towards retail for Schur.
