March 31 (prw) -- Polish injection moulder and packaging film producer ERG Capital Group is planning to expand its operations through a series of acquisitions over the next four years.
The old established firm, based in Dabrowa Gornicza, Poland, is reported already to be in negotiations with two other chemical companies and is expected to reveal whether it intends to purchase either or both in a matter of weeks. The company has not identified its potential targets.
Located near the southern Polish city of Katowice, ERG manufactures a range of shrink and stretch packaging films, plastic bags and adhesive tapes, as well as injection moulded crates, buckets, bins and battery cases.
The plastics converter is already undertaking due diligence in another potential acquisition, that of the Research & Development Centre of the Oil Refining Industry in the industrial Polish city of Plock, ERG's president Maciej Blasiak is reported to have said.
ERG shareholders agreed on 5 March to authorise the company to increase its nominal capital to more than ┬3 million by 1 March 2013. The group also operates Bioerg, a biodegradable packaging business that produces compostable plastics material and bags which was set up in 2007.
