Loparex has completed its acquisition of Infiana combining two major suppliers to the hygiene market. Infiana’s know-how and international expertise in highly engineered films and Loparex’s global leadership in specialty release liners complement each other very well, according to the companies. 

“I am looking forward, with excitement, to this great opportunity,” says Simon Medley, Loparex CEO. “As we move into integration, we will seek to leverage the strengths of Infiana and Loparex while identifying synergies and growth opportunities helping us to become the universal release liner solutions provider of choice.” 

The combination of the two companies will build stronger release liner capabilities and strengthen our global industry-leading position, which will enable a stronger support to our customers’ growth plans. Loparex has manufacturing operations in North America, Europe and Asia while Infiana has sites in Germany and the U.S.

“This merger is something the industry has been expecting and waiting for a long time,” says Peter Wabsner, CEO of Infiana. “The businesses complement each other very well in terms of portfolio and geography. Joining forces will create a true global company with a complete offering for our market and customer needs.”
