Following a string of megadeals in 2024 and 2025, analysts anticipate consolidation in 2026 could be driven by smaller players. Packaging Dive aims to track as many deals as possible to help you stay up to date.
Although the packaging industry is global, this list focuses on deals involving companies that are either based, or have a notable presence, in the U.S. or Canada.
