Tekni-Plex has acquired assets and licensed technologies of Fibro Corporation, a Tacoma, Washington-based company that develops and manufactures innovative molded-fiber packaging. The transaction strategically expands Tekni-Plex's materials science solutions in the fresh food marketplace to include a broader range of sustainable, pulp-based packaging solutions.
These new resources will become part of Tekni-Plex's Dolco Packaging business effective January 18, 2022, positioning the company as the only U.S. supplier of egg cartons manufactured in foam polystyrene, PET, and pulp-based materials. The move also will allow Dolco to expand product offerings beyond its primary focus on egg cartons and meat trays.
