Ampac Acquires Tamper-evident Security Bag Business from Sealed Air
CINCINNATI, Ohio—Ampac Packaging LLC has acquired Sealed Air Corporation’s Trigon Security Products business and related assets in North America and Europe. The transaction includes the purchase of assets from operations located in Kent, WA and Melbourn, UK.
The purchase includes the KeepSafe Gold, Silver and Bronze security bag product line which is used by financial institutions, armored carriers and retailers for the depositing and shipping of cash, checks and other valuables. The acquisition of the KeepSafe brand adds a patented thermochromic ink closure to Ampac’s already robust security bag offerings.
Operations from the Kent plant will be transferred to Ampac’s primary manufacturing facility in Cincinnati and will operate under the company’s Retail Packaging Group, headed by Chad Murdock, vice president, retail sales.
“This acquisition continues to solidify our expanding position as the leading supplier of security bag products in the world. The addition of the UK facility to our existing United States, China and Vietnam operations gives Ampac manufacturing capability on three continents, making us a true global supplier of tamper-evident security products,” says Murdock.
