Amtech Software, an enterprise software solutions provider for the packaging industry, has received strategic growth investment from Vista Equity Partners (VEP), a global technology investor.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This investment is aimed at bolstering the company\u2019s innovation within the packaging industry.<\/p>\n

It will facilitate advancements in Amtech\u2019s enterprise resource planning (ERP), manufacturing execution systems (MES), and automation solutions.<\/p>\n

This aligns with the company\u2019s goal to digitally transform operations in the global packaging sector.<\/p>\n

Amtech Software CEO Chuck Schneider said: \u201cAmtech is on a mission to modernize the packaging industry through software innovation, automation, and connected workflows.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith Vista\u2019s partnership and deep experience in scaling software businesses, we\u2019ll be able to advance our product roadmap, invest in our people and new innovative solutions and deliver even greater impact to our customers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Amtech\u2019s software platform is designed to assist packaging manufacturers in automating essential operations.<\/p>\n

These include order entry, production planning, inventory management, and real-time performance analytics.<\/p>\n

Targeted specifically at the corrugated, folding carton, flexible packaging, and label markets, Amtech\u2019s platform is claimed to enhance plant-wide efficiency.<\/p>\n

It also aims to reduce waste and improve operational visibility for manufacturers.<\/p>\n

With the backing of VEP, the company plans to accelerate improvements to its cloud-based platform.<\/p>\n

The investment will also support deeper integration between its ERP and MES systems, alongside leveraging AI and machine learning capabilities.<\/p>\n

Vista Foundation Fund co-head and senior managing director Patrick Severson said: \u201cAmtech delivers mission-critical software that supports every stage of the packaging production lifecycle, empowering manufacturers to operate with precision, speed and scale.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs the industry faces rising complexity and increasing customer expectations, we believe Amtech is uniquely positioned to help manufacturers work smarter and adapt faster.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re excited to partner with the Amtech team to accelerate growth, product innovation and impact for customers worldwide.\u201d<\/p>\n

In April 2024, Amtech closed the acquisition<\/a> of Label Traxx, a software provider for the label printing and flexible packaging segments.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
