Mauser Packaging Solutions, a global industrial packaging producer and provider of solutions and services, has acquired a plastic drum business in South Africa in order to extend its product offering and expand capacities to meeting growing regional demand

The business, previously owned by Nampak Products and Eliptotime PTY, specialises in manufacturing, selling and supplying plastic drums, including large rigid plastic drums in Pinetown, Kwa-Zulu Natal.

Peter Lucht, Mauser’s general manager in South Africa, commented, “We are proud to further expand our plastic capacity and portfolio. This acquisition enables us to offer our customers even greater security of supply and an enhanced portfolio of products.”

The new site produces UN-certified, tight-head and open-head plastic drums for use in the petrochemical, lubricant, ethanol, chemical, coatings, mining, and food industries. The facility holds ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications and is able to consistently deliver high-quality packaging solutions, including Mauser’s Infinity Series product range.

The Infinity Series of products provides brands with sustainable packaging solutions that meet strict performance requirements while incorporating post-consumer resin (PCR), reducing carbon emissions, and diverting waste from landfills. Mauser’s Recolene PCR material is manufactured in-house from empty industrial packaging that has been collected through the company’s Recover Syst-M programme and reached the end of its usable life.

“This investment underscores our ongoing commitment to expanding our presence in this region and growing with our customers by delivering sustainable packaging solutions with unparalleled quality and customer service,” said Michael Steubing, president of Mauser’s international packaging business unit.
