Stahl EMEA [Europe, Middle East and Africa] Packaging Coatings business director Raymond Bakker stated: “Turkey is a strategically important market for Stahl, and the integration of Weilburger Graphics’ activities allows us to serve our local customers with even greater efficiency and innovation.
“By uniting the strengths of both companies, we are creating a stronger organisation committed to supporting the fast-evolving needs of the packaging industry.”
