Berlin Packaging acquires Dutch company Vinkova

US-based Berlin Packaging, a leading supplier of glass, plastic and metal containers and closures, is strengthening its position in Northern Europe with the acquisition of Vinkova, one of the leading suppliers of glass packaging for food & beverage based in Bussum, the Netherlands.

The strategic acquisition of Vinkova (Berlin Packaging’s eighth in Europe since 2016) enables the company to complete its glass packaging offering to the Dutch market, which it has been serving since 2019 with plastic and metal solutions and innovative closures.

The operation will create extensive synergies between the two companies, bringing significant benefits for both. Vinkova has 50 years of experience, a strong relationship with the leading European glass producers and a large customer base in the Dutch market who will now have access to the exclusive design and innovation services offered by the Bruni Glass Innovation Center in Italy and One Eleven Studio in the United States. In line with Berlin Packaging's acquisition strategy, the workforce and structure of the Dutch company will remain unchanged.
