Mauser Group Gains New Partners in Asia

DRUMNET, the global Mauser
licensee network for steel packaging, has strengthened its network in Asia/Pacific. Its new partner for Australia and New Zealand is local market leader VIP Packaging, while leading steel drum producer Wuxi Sifang has joined the international DRUMNET network in China.

VIP Packaging is known to Mauser customers. As a member of MIPI, the Mauser plastics licensee network, the company can already look back on a successful history of cooperation with the Mauser plastics division. Effective immediately, the partnership will be extended to DRUMNET, the licensee organization of the Mauser steel division. With five plants around Australia, VIP Packaging is the leading steel packaging solutions provider for Australia and New Zealand. Its wide range of products will make VIP Packaging an important DRUMNET partner in the future.

In China, Wuxi Sifang, one of the country’s leading steel drum makers, extends the DRUMNET organization. From its manufacturing site in Wuxi, the company mainly services global customers located around Wuxi and Shanghai. In the second quarter of the year, Sifang will step up its capacities in their new Nanjing plant, to cater for the increasing drum demand in Eastern China.

“We are very pleased that VIP Packaging and Wuxi Sifang are joining our global network,” says Mauser CEO Dr. Clemens Willée. “Cooperating with our new partners, we can provide our multinational customers with reliable packaging solutions in the fast growing Asian markets.”

Mauser AG is a leading producer of industrial packaging with approx. 4,000 employees and revenues of around ?1 billion. Its largest business is plastic packaging, followed by metal and IBC packaging, reconditioning services and machinery for packaging production.
