Mauser Packaging Solutions has acquired the assets of Consolidated Container Co. LLC, which has operations in Minnesota and Kansas.
Mauser said Consolidated Container makes, reconditions and distributes industrial containers, both plastic and steel, and provides recycling and related services.
The company has locations in Minneapolis and Kansas City.
"The acquisition of Consolidated Container complements the Mauser product and service portfolio in many ways and creates tremendous opportunity for our customers, employees, and suppliers," said David Vergo, president of Mauser's North America Industrial Packaging segment, in a statement.
Mauser, based in Brühl, near Cologne, Germany, is an international supplier of rigid packaging and services with more than 120 locations in more than 20 countries.
Consolidated Container was co-founded by CEO Phillip Dworsky and his brother William Dworsky. The company's offerings include plastic drums, pails, bottles and intermediate bulk containers. IBCs typically feature large plastic containers, hundreds of gallons in size, surrounded by steel cages to provide support. The company also provides plastic and steel drum reconditioning and disposal services.
Minneapolis-based privately held Consolidated Container dates back 100 years, according to the company's website. Mauser also has a long heritage and was founded in 1896.
