Profile
Sells rigid consumer-goods packaging through Dispensing and Specialty Closures, Metal Containers, and Custom Containers. Metal Containers is the largest revenue base, while acquisitions have expanded dispensing capabilities.
Manufactures dispensing systems, specialty closures, metal containers, and custom rigid plastic containers for consumer-goods producers. Its metal containers serve food, pet food, and general-line products, while dispensing and specialty closures reach food, beverage, health care, home and garden, personal care, fragrance, and beauty markets.
Metal-container operations span North America and Europe; recent packaging acquisitions expanded dispensing capabilities in Europe and the Americas. Custom Containers supplies engineered plastic packaging to personal care, health care, food and beverage, household and industrial, and pharmaceutical markets.
The metal-container business depends materially on long-term, multi-year customer supply arrangements in North America.
