CNG is an independent producer of high-performance, sustainable films in North America. It serves the flexible packaging and other end-use markets.
Polymer Packaging CEO and owner Larry Lanham said: “As I considered divesting this business, my primary concern was to find the best possible home for my employees while providing the best possible care for our customers.
“I immediately thought of CNG, the preeminent supplier in this marketplace, with a reputation for delivering both.”
In May this year, CNG joined a Minnesota-based initiative to expand film recycling infrastructure and the supply of recycled resin for use in new products.
Led by Minnesota’s MBOLD coalition and film recycler Myplas USA, the scheme aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and waste output.
It will involve Myplas building a flexible film recycling plant in the state, which is scheduled to begin operations next year.
