BPA Group acquires Racupack

20 July 2013


Packaging machinery automation specialist BPA Group has acquired Netherlands-based cartoning and casepacker machinery manufacturer Racupack.

Also based in the Netherlands, BPA Group includes packaging systems manufacturer BluePrint Automation.

Racupack will continue its operations under the name BPA Racupack BV, and the acquisition enables BPA Group to offer a more diverse product portfolio, providing integrated single source turnkey packaging solutions.

With 25 years’ experience in its field, Racupack has created a great name in the food and non-food markets as a manufacturer of wrap-around and cartoning solutions.

Martin Prakken, chairman & CEO of the BPA Group, says: “Both companies are very excited about this acquisition as the product portfolios of each company are a perfect complement.”

Founded by Bob Prakken in 1980, the main focus areas for BPA BV are in vision-guided robotics, case and tray packing, complete packaging systems and, with the addition of Racupack to the group, wrap-around and cartoning solutions.
