Siegwerk has announced the acquisition of Allinova, a Netherlands-based specialist in coatings and polymer dispersions. The company, headquartered in Hengelo, is known for its technical expertise in the formulation and production of water-based dispersions, wax emulsions and adhesives. These products will complement Siegwerk’s existing packaging coatings portfolio and further support its strategic focus on circular and digital packaging solutions. The move follows the establishment of Siegwerk’s Circular Economy Coatings (CEC) business unit in April 2024, focusing on functional coatings to enable sustainable packaging innovations. The company states that the acquisition will double its global expertise in functional coatings and strengthen its position as a provider of recyclable packaging solutions.
