SACMI has gained a majority share in the French group Emballage Technologies, which comprises Etpack, Sermatec, and Pactisoud. Made official on Friday 19th December 2025, this acquisition sees SACMI gain a 65% share. The operation was completed via the subsidiary SACMI Packaging & Chocolate SpA, the SACMI Group Business Unit that operates in the food packaging sector.
SACMI has been working with Etpack since 2019 through its Poland-based subsidiary. The basis for this transaction - of considerable commercial and industrial value - is, then, the strong relationship between the two industrial groups and their shared strategic vision.
SACMI Packaging & Chocolate thus expands and completes its range of secondary packaging solutions by integrating specific technologies, with the resulting expansion of the offering allowing the company to reach into additional industries and market segments. This synergy also extends to the construction and assembly of the flowpack ranges and the low- and medium-speed vertical packaging machines - designed by SACMI and assembled in Sermatec - thus boosting the ability to respond to market dynamics.
Groupe Emballage Technologies is a renowned name in France, and SACMI is confident that it will be a major growth driver on this market, in keeping with the goal of achieving a strong local presence via a network of production and sales facilities. Note also that this operation aligns with SACMI Packaging & Chocolate’s broader business strategy: indeed, the company is already present internationally in Poland, the DACH countries and the United States.
