Tekni-Plex Inc. has acquired Sancap Liner Technology Inc. of Alliance, OH. Sancap is a leading producer of heat-seal, pressure-sensitive, and gasket-sealing liners for pharmaceutical and food applications. In addition to liners, Sancap also produces higher-barrier Saran laminations and coated pouch/bag structures for food, liquor, confection, and chemical applications.
“Sancap’s heat-seal liner production capability makes this an ideal strategic acquisition for Tekni-Plex,” says David Andrulonis, Senior V.P. /General Manager, Tekni-Plex. “It complements our existing liner technology and will enable us to service increasing demand from our global customers with an even broader product line.”
Tekni-Plex announced in March its plans to acquire Sancap, which is now the third liner business Tekni-Plex has acquired in the last 18 months. The two previous acquisitions were Ghiya Extrusions in Ahmedabad, India, and Tech-Seal in Triadelphia, WV.
