At the same time, the integration with Cristal Embalagens will allow for the expansion of the flexible packaging solutions offering for rapidly growing sectors, including pet food, leveraging complementary skills and creating new development opportunities in international markets.

Thanks to the integration of complementary skills, production capabilities, and know-how, we will be able to expand our offering of flexible packaging solutions, continuing to invest in technology, quality, and environmental sustainability, elements that have always guided our development. This operation consolidates our presence in Latin America and strengthens the Group’s competitiveness internationally, allowing us to be even closer to our customers and to support their growth with increasingly efficient and responsible solutions. We are particularly happy to continue this journey alongside the Graf/Wallauer family.
