CDL Omni-Pac becomes Omni-Pac Group to reflect its significantly strengthened pan-European presence following the acquisition of MFP in the United-Kingdom early 2020

Under Motion Equity Partners’ ownership, Omni-Pac Group becomes a leading European player in the sustainable moulded fiber packaging industry.

This change of identity acknowledges the profound transformation of the Group, which is now at the forefront of the fast-growing sustainable packaging market, offering innovative and eco-friendly solutions in moulded fiber (a natural, recyclable and biodegradable material) for various markets such as:

• The food sector (eggs, fruit & vegetables, fish, meat, dairy products, etc.): in these segments, moulded fiber offers ideal features for the conditioning and preservation and the replacement of plastic materials;
• The medical sector, with innovative single-use solutions limiting the excessive use of detergents and the proliferation of nosocomial disease;
• The industrial market, with shipping packaging solutions allowing to conciliate technical performance (optimized protection and logistic) and further recycling.

Omni-Pac Group operates three highly automated and complementary state-of-the-art production facilities: Allaire in Brittany (France), Elsfleth in Germany and Scunthorpe in the United-Kingdom. Every year, over 100,000 tons of recycled paper and cardboard are recycled on these sites, thus contributing to give a second life to our paper waste.

Historically positioned as a leader in the French, German and UK markets, the Group is also a key player in Benelux, the Nordic Countries and in Southern Europe. It has recently initiated very promising developments in Export markets especially in the Middle East, Africa and in North and South America.

With its 600 employees led by Renaud Malarre (CEO since 2013), the Group has significantly invested in R&D in order to develop tomorrow’s packaging and actively promotes circular economy as well as environmental protection.

The Group’s development strategy is fully aligned with the tremendous changes of consumers’ habits definitively shifting away from plastic packaging towards eco-friendly solutions, in accordance with the UN 2030 Sustainable Development Goals roadmap. The Group also remains attentive to new strategic partnerships in order to expand its industrial footprint.
