Multi Packaging Solutions (MPS) and consumer packaging manufacturer Chesapeake Services have formally completed the merging of their businesses.
The merger has led to the creation of a new firm in the print and packaging industry with complementary products, locations and manufacturing capabilities.
The new firm will supply a range of packaging, including printed folded cartons, labels, inserts/leaflets, rigid boxes and specialist packaging to the pharmaceutical/healthcare, consumer, personal care, confectionery, spirits and multi-media end-markets.
With the merger, the firms are now operating with a network of over 50 manufacturing locations in the US, Europe and Asia.
MPS CEO Marc Shore said the merger will enable the firms operate with their combined manufacturing footprint and technological capabilities to meet customers' needs with a range of products and operational flexibility.
"The ability to produce these goods and services in the United States, Europe and China will also give our customers consistency on a global basis," Shore added.
