Loews expects to fund the deal with around 50% cash-on-hand and 50% debt.
Upon completion of the deal, CCC will function under a newly-created division called Loews Packaging Group.
Loews president and CEO James Tisch said: “We have been analysing the packaging industry for some time because it fits our key acquisition criteria: It is a fragmented industry that generates strong cash flows and we believe it is unlikely to be subject to major technological disruption.
“CCC is an outstanding company with a highly professional management team that can serve as a platform for growth, both organically and through acquisitions.”
