Context

The group has finalized an agreement to acquire the target from One Rock Capital Partners, a maneuver designed to fundamentally expand its manufacturing capabilities in the growing West Coast region. The strategic rationale for this transaction centers on a "network-flexibility" play, merging the target's industry-leading technical operational depth in recycled fiber milling with the group’s established global distribution and containerboard framework. This structural alignment provides the organization with the scientific talent and high-performance hardware (specifically the target's three specialized machines) required to address the increasing demand for lightweight, high-performance recycled packaging.

This transaction is part of the Industry & Manufacturing industry, which currently tracks an average EBITDA multiple of 10.5x since the beginning of 2026, 3.1% increase compared to 2025.

Target

North Pacific Paper Company (NORPAC) is a USA company specialized in Recycled Containerboard Manufacturing. Based in the Pacific Northwest, the company has carved out a distinct space in the industry by focusing on the large-scale production of high-quality, environmentally sustainable fiber products. Instead of just milling standard paper grades, they thrive on a philosophy of technical adaptation, having recently completed a multi-year transformation to shift their output toward lightweight, recycled containerboard. What makes them a go-to partner is their ability to leverage three industry-leading machines to produce high-performance materials that meet the rigorous weight and strength requirements of the modern packaging sector.
