Linpac's European push
Linpac Packaging identified the need to invest in Germany and started in 2010 at two sites, Ritterhude, Bremen and Beeskow, Brandenburg.
The firm said the country was the largest packaging market so it was logical to invest there and boosting PET production will enable them to stay ahead of competitors.
At FachPack in Nurembourg last year, Linpac Chief Executive Officer, David Meldram outlined the investment of €3m in polyethylene terephthalate (PET) extrusion and automation at Ritterhude on top of €6m spent at that site and the Beeskow facility.
