“This combination strengthens ProAmpac’s leadership position in the production of multi-wall paper applications,” Greg Tucker, founder and CEO of Cincinnati, Ohio-based ProAmpac, said in an April 19 news release.
The news release said that El Dorado will adopt the ProAmpac brand and will maintain operations at its three manufacturing facilities.
The addition of El Dorado is ProAmpac’s third acquisition in 2021. ProAmpac has 41 manufacturing sites globally, and more than 5,200 employees.
