European operations strengthened
US packaging giant Pregis LLC is expanding its global operations across Europe following its 2016 acquisition of UK-based environmentally friendly packaging brand Easypack Limited.
Over the last two years, Easypack has strengthened its entire operations in preparation for European growth, and from January 2018 the company will trade as Pregis Limited.
The change of name allows the company to further expand and develop new opportunities through its new portfolio of protective packaging solutions and its increasing European distribution network. Customers across Europe will have access to some of the most advanced packaging systems in the world, which are currently enjoyed by thousands of major US brands from across all sectors.
The Easypack range of eco-friendly packaging solutions will continue to be an important part of the Pregis Limited offering – design and manufacture will remain in the UK and customers will continue to be fully supported, now with the added benefit of having access to further, complementary solutions. Their 100% recycled, recyclable and biodegradable paper packaging will continue to be distributed from its UK production centres.
Pregis Limited’s operations director, Jason Cox, said: "We welcomed and embraced the opportunity to become part of the Pregis family because we are all driven by the same passions and ethics. The Easypack brand of environmentally friendly packaging solutions is more relevant today than ever and as Pregis Limited, we will be able to deliver our innovative, green packaging solutions to even more customers across Europe, directly to end users and through our growing network of distribution partners."
