“Global companies continue to expand their filling operations here in Mexico and local Mexican companies are also growing so the creation of this joint venture, MPI, makes sense,” said Alexis Riedel, General Manager of MPI. “We are confident that we will be able to supply customers in the Mexican market with the highest quality product along with unsurpassed service for their IBC needs.”
“Our customers continue to invest in their businesses around the world and we continue to do the same to support them,” said Siegfried Weber, Sr. VP Sales and Marketing, MAUSER Group. “We understand how important it is for our customers to have a reliable supply of high quality IBC’s that are consistent in design and performance around the world and MPI now provides our organization that capability in Mexico as well.”
“IBC’s as a packaging choice are growing everywhere around the world and we are committed to keep pace with that growth,” said Jeff Simmonds, President and CEO, Mauser North America. “The decision to pursue that IBC growth in the Mexican market through a joint venture with Plastienvases was an easy one. Our current experience with Plastienvases as a Mauser licensee for plastic drums has demonstrated our ability to work together well as a team which will be critical as we enter the IBC market in Mexico.”
