QUADPACK INDUSTRIES acquired by TEXEN
Context
Texen S.A.S., under the umbrella of its parent company PSB Industries, has finalized the acquisition of 100% of Quadpack Industries. The transaction was initiated through the acquisition of a 77.66% controlling block from Eudald Holdings SL and the company's founders, followed by a 9.85% stake from a minority shareholder.

While Quadpack and Texen will initially remain standalone entities to preserve their respective cultures, the group will leverage significant synergies in geographical coverage (Asia, Europe, Americas) and market segments (Luxury vs. Masstige). The founders of Quadpack have reinvested into PSB Industries, remaining involved in the future growth of the unified group.
