Dec. 3: The most recent updates to this tracker include: 

• Texas-based Inovar Packaging, a provider of label printing and packaging solutions, acquired Indiana-based Enterprise Marking Products, a flexographic label printing company. Inovar, founded in 1989, specializes in pressure-sensitive and non-adhesive labels for a range of industrial, food and beverage and consumer products.
• Illinois-based Aptar Group completed its acquisition of Brazil-based Sommaplast, which it described as a “global leader in drug and consumer product dosing, dispensing and protection technologies.”
• Larson Packaging Co. acquired fellow California-based company Great Western Eagle Packaging, a supplier of case and foam solutions. Larson plans to integrate the company’s manufacturing operations and sees the deal as complementary to its focus on aerospace and military clients.

Analysts had projected that M&A activity could tick up in 2025 and that there was room for additional consolidation following a string of megadeals. 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. We list the acquirers by their parent company or common operating name, which may differ from the specific legal entities involved in the acquisitions. The list can be sorted by category by clicking on each column title in the table below. You can also scroll down to see archived lists from 2023 and 2024.
