Packsize, a provider of packaging machines, is acquiring Sparck Technologies, a Dutch specialist in automated packaging solutions. The American company announced this in a press release on April 23.
Accordingly, the acquisition represents a milestone in Packsize's growth strategy and aims to strengthen the company's position in the automated packaging industry. By combining Packsize's technology and service model with Sparck's fit-to-size solutions, the company now offers what it claims to be the industry's most comprehensive solution portfolio in the field of volume-reduced packaging.
"Sparck has long been known for its innovation, reliability, and strong commitment to sustainability – values that perfectly align with our own," says David Lockwood, CEO of Packsize. "Together, our complementary technologies create a more comprehensive product offering for our customers. This acquisition brings us one step closer to achieving our mission Smart Packaging for a Healthy Planet, by accelerating our ability to deliver more sustainable, right-sized packaging solutions to customers worldwide."
"The inclusion of Sparck into the Packsize team is a strategic step that expands the offering for our customers – especially in high-volume, high-efficiency environments," said Brian Reinhart, Chief Revenue Officer at Packsize. "Sparck's automated packaging solutions enable us to address a broader range of packaging challenges. This is not just about growth – it's about delivering smarter, more sustainable automation on a large scale."
Sparck Technologies, headquartered in Drachten, Netherlands, is best known for its "CVP Impack" and "CVP Everest" systems - automated solutions that optimize throughput and reduce waste by producing custom-sized boxes on a large scale. "This acquisition is a perfect fit," said Kees Oosting, CEO of Sparck.
"It allows us to provide greater value to our customers faster and on a larger scale than either company could achieve alone."
