TricorBraun moves into wine packaging top-spot after Trilogy takeover

TricorBraun said its acquisition of Trilogy Glass and Packaging “clearly establishes” it as North America’s largest supplier of wine packaging.

The US-based rigid packing giant last week announced that the takeover of the California-based wine packaging specialist would boost annual sales in its own WinePak division to around US$120m.

This deal doubles TricorBraun WinePak’s sales force and means it now has offices in Northern and Southern California, Oregon, Washington and British Columbia, said the company.

Trilogy recently opened a high-tech $2m- repacking system in Northern California that provides over 65% more warehousing space than in its previous location.
