Enhancing our Sleeve decoration offering to better service customers
Guenther Birkner President, Food & Beverage, Healthcare & Specialty and Innovia stated: „The acquisition combines our respective sleeve product lines and brings together two innovation-driven organizations with complementary strengths in premium labeling and decoration technologies. Shrink sleeves—one of the fastest-growing decoration technologies – play a critical role in helping brands improve shelf impact, enhance consumer engagement, and meet evolving sustainability commitments“.
