Absolute Packaging, the Sheffield-based flexible packaging supplier, has bought Wrapid Holdings contract packing division for an undisclosed amount.

Absolute, which produces a range of bulk containers and paper sacks for the food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries, has used Wrapid Contract Services for several years, and it was the “natural step” to bring the two businesses together.

Absolute director Nick Storton said combining the two operations would provide excellent opportunities for growth.

In particular, there are plans to further develop Wrapid’s cleanroom facilities to improve the company’s offer for the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Wrapid Contract Services, which will retain its base in Astley, near Manchester, provides collating, auto-feeding, checkweighing and labelling services to a range of industries.
