Superfos Pharma is ensured great development and growth potential with a new owner, who will take over Pharma as of December 30, 2005.

One of Europe’s leading suppliers of plastic packaging for the pharmaceutical market, Superfos Pharma, has just been acquired by Gerresheimer Group.

Following the divestment of Superfos Pharma, the Superfos Group concentrates its activities with focus on injection moulded plastic packaging for the consumer as well as the industrial market, and strengthens the market segment focus further in Europe and the USA.

Gerresheimer Group is a leading international company in the field of glass packaging systems for the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industry with a total of 19 factories. The buyer expects to be able to increase sales of Pharma products globally and, hereby, achieve synergies in sales of both glass and plastic packaging. Hence, Pharma’s continued growth and international development possibilities are secured.
