Sabert Corporation Europe swoops for Colpac Limited

Founded in 1937 and headquartered in Flitwick, Colpac has built a strong reputation for innovation, quality, and customer service across its extensive range of food packaging solutions. The business has remained family-owned for generations and the Colpac brand was developed and nurtured over many years.

The acquisition represents a strategic milestone for Sabert, which has a Kimbolton presence. The deal significantly enhances its presence in the UK, Irish and European markets and reinforces its global paperboard offering across its channels of operation.

The combined business will offer an expanded product portfolio across its channels of operation, with strengthened design, agility, enhanced UK-based manufacturing capabilities, and a stronger platform for sustainable innovation.

“Today marks an important milestone in our ongoing investment in the UK and our focus on expanding our diverse product portfolio of innovative, sustainable solutions,” says Paul McCann, Chief Executive Officer at Sabert Corporation.

“Both companies believe that a culture of sustainability, quality, and high service levels is the foundation of building lasting relationships with our customers. Now, as one team, we can accelerate our efforts even further to develop and deliver sustainable, innovative solutions as our customers’ trusted food packaging provider.”

Colpac food packaging solutions are exported to over 60 countries. Sabert is headquartered in Sayreville, New Jersey and operates US facilities in California, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, New Jersey, Texas, and Virginia, complemented by manufacturing hubs in Nivelles, Belgium; Kimbolton, England; Lodz, Poland and Zhongshan, China.
