Sidel

With this move, we are continuing on the journey we started back in October 2018. Then, we enriched Sidel by acquiring PET Engineering, which provides brand strategy and design consultancy, packaging design, line conversion services and molds to the beverage industry​,” he said. 

Today, by acquiring COMEP, we enlarge our set of capabilities even further and extend our mold and tooling portfolio​.”

COMEP and Sidel will remain set on their current focuses with a go-to-market strategy to leverage their respective capabilities, while offering a full set of packaging services to companies bottling their products in PET.
